Most places when you do adopt from a shelter they will give you a paper to give to your vet for a discount to spay or neuter your pet. Companion animals are an important part of our lives. They give us love, companionship, comfort, and are fun to be with. The one thing they need most of all is to be wanted. 70,000 puppies and kittens are born in the USA each day.
Every litter adds to the surplus.
Your litter may find good homes, but they may breed more puppies and kittens who may not find good homes and may end up being dumped or destroyed. Most must be put to death. You can do your part in helping us fight the battle against too many unwanted animals by having your own pet spayed or neutered. I saw this poem and it broke my heart when I read this. He's been there for days now with nothing to do but sit by the road, waiting for you.
