We couldn’t agree more!!!
Welcome back to “I don’t know what I don’t know!”
Today’s topic:
✂️ Spay & Neuter: Still Important Today! ✂️
“This is Bob Barker reminding you to help control the pet population—have your pet spayed or neutered!”
And honestly… he was right then and he’s still right now. 😉
So what does spaying and neutering mean?
• Spaying is the removal of the reproductive organs in female dogs and cats
• Neutering is the removal of the testicles in male dogs and cats
While the ideal age can vary by breed (especially in dogs), these procedures offer big benefits for your pet and your community.
🐶🐱 Health & behavior benefits include:
• Reduced risk of certain cancers (including mammary cancer)
• Less roaming and wandering
• Decreased aggression-related behaviors
❤️ Community benefits matter too:
• Fewer free-roaming cats and dogs
• Fewer animals needing shelter care
• Lower shelter euthanasia rates
• Improved quality of life for pets and people
