For the Health of it: Benefits of spaying and neutering cats

CHENANGO COUNTY – The best way to control the animal population is to spay or neuter your pets.
Your community will also benefit. Unwanted animals are becoming a very real concern in many places. Stray and feral cats can easily become a public nuisance, soiling parks and streets, ruining shrubbery, frightening children and elderly people, creating noise and disturbances, causing automobile accidents, and sometimes even killing or harming other animals and birds. (The American Veterinary Medical Association)
It can be very costly to taxpayers to capture, impound or euthanize unwanted animals. Local animal organizations spend a lot of their funds working every day to care for and improve the lives of neglected, abused, and abandoned companion animals. It can also be costly to the County to treat people for rabies when bitten or scratched by a stray or feral cat. The situation can quickly become a public health hazard.
Here are some of the Benefits of Spaying and Neutering Cats:
• Sterilization will increase his/her chance of a longer and healthier life.
• No heat cycles, therefore males will not be attracted.
• Risk of certain types of cancers are reduced or eliminated, especially if done in a timely manner.
• Reduces the number of unwanted cats/kittens.
• Reduces or eliminates risk of spraying and marking.
• Less desire to roam, therefore less likely to be injured in fights or auto accidents and less likely to contract diseases.
• Decreases aggressive behavior.
• Helps to control overpopulation.
