Family Planning

Spey, Castration, Neutering

Whether it is a female being speyed or a male being castrated, both procedures fall under the umbrella terms of "desexing" or "neutering".

 

There are a lot of advantages to desexing your pets, whether they are males or females, or whether they are cats, dogs, or rabbits.

​

  • Desexing will stop unwanted pregnancies

                         - There are a lot of unwanted cats, kittens, dogs, and puppies out there

                           that are already desperately struggling to find homes.

 

  • Desexing will help stop wandering in search of mates

                         - When your pet wanders he or she is at risk of getting lost, getting into

                           fights with the neighbours, getting hit on the road, or being impounded.

 

  • Desexing will reduce unwanted aggression and territorial behaviours

                         - Urine spraying and territorial marking is never fun to clean up.

                         - Castrating your tom cat at an early enough age will also help reduce

                           the distinctive odour associated with uncastrated male urine
