Why should I spay or neuter my cat?
-
Long-term Health: Spaying a female cat, especially before the first heat, helps prevent uterine infections, uterine cancers, and breast cancer. Neutering male cats eliminates the chances of testicular cancer and lowers the risk of prostate problems. Generally, spayed and neutered pets live healthier, longer, and happier lives.
-
Behavior: Spayed or neutered cats are better behaved. They will be less likely to roam, yowl, wail, bite, display aggressive behavior, or spray or mark their territory. Unneutered cats can also expose your cat to dangerous diseases, including feline leukemia and feline immunodeficiency virus.
-
Mood: Spaying or neutering can help improve your cat's mood. Unaltered pets become stressed when in heat, which can last several months out of the year. Spaying or neutering will help relieve stress and will leave you with a content pet. You'll help curb undesirable behaviors without interfering with your furry companion's unique personality.
-
Unwanted Kittens: Spaying and neutering can help control the pet overpopulation crisis and reduces the number of strays, that end up in shelters instead of loving homes. Unfortunately, many end up homeless and are left to fend for themselves.
