Neutering pets, which refers to spaying females or castrating males, offers several benefits including:
-
Population control: Neutering helps reduce the number of unwanted animals and helps manage the pet overpopulation crisis.
-
Health benefits: Neutering can reduce the risk of certain cancers and infections in both male and female pets.
-
Behavioral improvements: Neutered pets are less likely to exhibit behaviors such as roaming, aggression, and marking territory.
-
Longer lifespan: Neutered pets tend to live longer, healthier lives due to reduced risks of certain diseases and accidents related to mating behaviors.
