If you have a pet, one of the most important decisions you have to make is whether to spay or neuter your dog or cat.
Neutering is technically the removal of a dog's or cat's ovaries and uterus, and the removal of a dog's or cat's testicles.
It is a procedure performed by veterinarians under anaesthesia that requires minimal hospitalisation and provides lifelong health benefits for your pet.
3 reasons why you should neuter your pet:
- Your pet will live longer and healthier by preventing many pathologies 2.
- Your pet's behaviour will improve. Urine marks, fights, runaways or night-time meowing, among others, will disappear.
- Animal abandonment is prevented by the disappearance of unwanted litters.
What diseases can be prevented by sterilisation?
The main diseases that can be prevented by sterilisation are the following:
- In females, sterilisation can prevent pathologies such as hormonal disorders, metritis or inflammation of the uterus, tumours of the uterus, ovaries and breasts, cysts or psychological pregnancies.
- In males, it prevents unwanted growth of the prostate (making defecation or accidental urine leakage difficult), prostate cancer or testicular cancer.
