Why Spay Neuter

 

SPAY/NEUTER BENEFITS YOU by making your pet a better companion and saving you money. Neutered males are less likely to spray your house with urine, escape out of your fenced back yard, get in fights with other animals, or be hit by cars. Spayed females won't howl in heat, bleed all over your house, or attract the neighborhood's stray males to your doorstep. Spay/neuter also reduces or completely eliminates the incidence of a number of serious health problems that can be difficult and/or costly to treat.

SPAY/NEUTER BENEFITS YOUR PET by helping her or him live a longer, healthier life. Altered animals are less likely to contract certain kinds of cancers, and they are less likely to be given up at the local animal shelter (where they may not find another adoptive home) due to behavioral problems.

THE SAD STATISTICS

  • One female cat and her offspring can produce 420,000 cats in 7 years.
  • One female dog and her offspring can produce 67,000 dogs in 6 years.
  • No homes for littermates is one of the top ten reasons people relinquish their cats and dogs to shelters.
  • Every 6.5 seconds another homeless animal dies.
  • 61% of dogs and 75% of cats relinquished are killed.
  • For every human born in the United States daily, there are 7 puppies and kittens born.

Please be sure you are part of the solution. Spay/Neuter your pets.
