Spaying and neutering is good for your pet:

• Helps dogs and cats live longer, healthier lives.

• Can eliminate or reduce the incidence of a number of health problems that can be very difficult and expensive to treat.

• Spaying eliminates the possibility of uterine or ovarian cancer and greatly reduces the incidence of breast cancer, particularly when your pet is spayed before her first estrous cycle.

• Neutering eliminates testicular cancer and decreases the incidence of prostate disease.

Spaying and neutering is good for you:

• Makes pets better, more affectionate companions.

• Neutering makes them less likely to spray and mark territory.

• Spaying a dog or cat eliminates her heat cycle. Female cats in heat can cry incessantly, show nervous behavior, and attract unwanted male animals.

• Unsterilized animals often exhibit more behavior and temperament problems.

• Neutering makes pets less likely to roam, run away, or get into fights.
