“Neutering” refers to the sexual altering of both a female or male cat or dog. Not only does neutering have health benefits, it also helps to decreased pet overpopulation.
Sadly, millions of unwanted pets are euthanized in shelters every year. According to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, five out of 10 dogs and seven out of 10 cats in shelters go un-adopted and are eventually destroyed. In most cases, these dogs are not born on the street. Actually, one in four of these dogs are purebred and many are the offspring of cherished family pets.

Thanks for helping me understand that neutering is beneficial to our pets. I had no idea that it keeps them healthy. You've also mentioned that it decreases their pet overpopulation, how would I know if they are for neutering? Would there be any requirements or qualifications? I'm sorry, this information is new to me.

I find it helpful when you said that neutering female pets can help them avoid getting into heat, avoid yowling, and avoid peeing more frequently. With that in mind, my suggestion for those who need to have this done is to ask a local veterinarian to do this for them. This, in turn, will help pet owners also get an accurate reading of their health to know whether they need to get them treated for another disease or change their pet food.
