What is Neutering?
Neutering is a surgical procedure performed on male pets to remove the testicles, which effectively prevents reproduction. This procedure, medically known as castration, is conducted under general anesthesia by a veterinarian. Neutering helps manage the health and behavior of pets and contributes to overall pet welfare.
Benefits of Neutering
-
Prevents Unwanted Litters: Neutering eliminates the risk of your pet fathering unwanted litters, which helps reduce pet overpopulation and the number of animals in shelters.
-
Reduces Health Risks: Neutering decreases the risk of testicular cancer and can reduce the risk of prostate problems, which are more common in unneutered males.
-
Improves Behavior: Neutering can help reduce or eliminate certain behavioral issues such as aggression, marking territory, and roaming in search of a mate.
-
Enhances Longevity: By preventing certain health issues and reducing risky behaviors, neutering can contribute to a longer and healthier life for your pet.
