The benefits of spaying or neutering pets will give Milwaukee pet owners a long and happy lifetime of pleasure for both human and animal. There are many good reasons to alter your pets.
The Spay Wisconsin website states, “It costs U.S. taxpayers an estimated $2 billion each year to round up, house, kill, and dispose of homeless animals.”
Aside from the high cost of unaltered animals is the health factor. Females are less likely to develop female cancers, males are less likely to develop prostrate infections and male cancers and the stress of compulsive mating is eliminated. Behavior is another beneficial factor females do not go into heat thus elevating the annoying meowing to attract males. Males cease to mark their territories, wander looking for females, sound howling meows, and fight other males. Both males and females become more relaxed and docile.
Milwaukee pet owners who want to have their children experience the miracle of birth do not have to expose their pets to stress and problems that breeding can cause. The Milwaukee County Zoo is a good source of information as to where to experience this miracle.
There are several organizations in the Milwaukee area that offer information regarding spaying and neutering pets. The Spay Wisconsin website, The Wisconsin Humane Society and The Milwaukee Area Domestic Animal Control Commision (MADACC) are just a few.
