Spay and Neuter

Pet spay and neuter surgeries can prevent certain types of cancer, along with undesirable behaviors that arise when your pet has the urge to mate. Conditions and behaviors that can be improved or eliminated with spaying and neutering include:

Females

Unwanted pregnancies

Going into heat

Spotting

Tendency to roam

Mammary cancer

Uterine infections (pyometra)

Males

Spraying/marking in the house

Tendency to roam

Aggressive behavior

Mounting people/animals/objects

Testicular cancer

Prostate infections

Reducing the number of stray cats and dogs is one of the most important aspects of pet spaying and neutering, but your pet’s long-term health can benefit greatly.
