Health Benefits of Spaying and Neutering

Spaying your female pet can prevent uterine infections and significantly reduce the risk of breast tumors, which can be malignant in about 50% of dogs and 90% of cats. Neutering your male pet helps prevent testicular cancer and certain prostate problems. Moreover, spayed and neutered pets often live longer, healthier lives, as they are less likely to roam and engage in fights.

Some of the most common benefits of spaying and neutering include:

  • Reduces the risk of certain cancers
  • Prevents uterine infections in female pets
  • Helps control pet overpopulation
  • Leads to a longer, healthier life for your pet

    When to Spay or Neuter Your Pet

    It is generally recommended to spay or neuter your pet between the ages of six to nine months, though some pets can be altered as early as eight weeks old if they are healthy. Our veterinarians can help determine the best timing for your pet based on their breed, size, and overall health. Spaying or neutering at the right age ensures that your pet reaps the maximum health benefits from the procedure.

    What to Expect Before and After the Procedure

    Before the surgery, we will conduct a thorough physical examination to ensure your pet is healthy enough for anesthesia. We will provide detailed pre-operative instructions, including when to withhold food and water. After the surgery, our team will monitor your pet closely as they recover. We will also provide post-operative care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery at home.
