The Importance of Spay and Neuter
Please see the Animal
Protection Association in Memphis for low
cost spay or neuter, as well as discounts on
routine vaccinations.
- Spayed and neutered pets are better, more
affectionate, companions.
- Neutered cats are less likely to spray and
mark territory.
- Spaying a female dog or cat eliminates its
heat cycle, which can last twenty-one days,
twice a year, in dogs, and anywhere from
three to fifteen days, three or more times a
year, in cats. Females in heat often cry
incessantly, show nervous behavior, and
attract unwanted male animals.
- Spayed and neutered pets are less likely
to bite. Unaltered animals often exhibit
more behavior and temperament problems than
those that have been spayed or neutered.
- Spayed and neutered dogs and cats live
longer, healthier lives.
- Spaying female dogs and cats eliminates
the possibility of uterine or ovarian cancer
and greatly reduces the incidence of breast
cancer.
- Neutering male dogs and cats reduces the
incidence of prostate cancer.
- Neutered animals are less likely to roam
and fight.
- Communities spend millions of dollars to
control and eliminate unwanted animals.
Irresponsible breeding contributes to the
problem of dog bites and attacks. Animal
shelters are overburdened with surplus
animals.
