Those of us who have opened our hearts and homes to a cat or dog know how much the relationship with a cherished animal companion can enrich our lives. The least we can do is ensure these regal animals receive the health care they deserve.
One of the best things a responsible animal guardian can do for a cat or dog is to have her or him spayed or neutered. Spaying greatly reduces the chance of breast cancer and prevents various reproductive tract disorders, while neutering eliminates the risk of various testicular diseases. In addition, pets who have been spayed or neutered are less likely to roam, which means they are less likely to get in fights with other animals, get hit by cars, or be abused by cruel people. Finally, pets who are spayed or neutered do not add to the heartbreaking tragedy of overpopulation, which results in shelter workers having to humanely kill three to four million homeless cats and dogs each year.
