By having your pet sterilized, you help prevent the birth of unwanted puppies and kittens, according to a news release. Spaying and neutering prevent unwanted litters, help protect against serious health problems and may reduce some behavioral problems associated with the mating instinct. Please consider not only making an appointment for your female cat, but also for your male cat.
