Sterilized pets lead healthier, longer fives. Spaying a female eliminates the possibility of uterine and ovarian cancer and greatly reduces the chances of breast cancer. Neutering a male reduces the risk of both prostate enlargement and prostate cancer. Neutering also will make your pet more affectionate and less likely to roam, get in fights or become lost. Pets become fat and lazy as a result of overeating and lack of exercise, not from spaying or neutering.
Sterilization is an important part of being a responsible pet owner.
First prevent a litter. This is the single most important step you can take. Work to ensure that all animals have homes, adequate food and water, proper medical care and love. Talk to civic groups, schools and neighborhood associations and enlist their support. All Rights Reserved.
