Is your pet spayed/neutered?

[tessas212]

Just wondering how many have spayed/neutered their pets.

 

[K9_Trainer]

All 3 of my dogs and both my cats are spayed.

 

[SpaceProg]

All 8 of my cats and my dog are spayed and neutered.

I had 3 cats before a mama stray came that was pregnant and had kittens. When they were old enough I had them all spayed/neutered.
Pet overpopulation is a major problem. The sooner more people spay/neuter the better. Too many animals are dying needlessly due to there not being enough homes for them. It's a very sad state of affairs.

Er... *gets off soapbox*

My cat isn't neutered yet because he isn't old enough but he is scheduled for March!

My youngest pug isnt nuetered cause she isnt old enough yet. But once she hits 6 months, we're going to go get her fixed. Ive done that to both of my other dogs and you can definently tell a world of difference.

Yep, both my dogs have been spayed (one has since passed away).

Not only was it a condition of their adoption, which I think is a wonderful requirement, but I also believe it is irresponsible not to spay or neuter your pet once it reaches the appropriate age for doing so.

 

[canukian]

why do they call it being fixed when it is being broken?

Fixing the overpopulation of unwanted pets problem?

No, I produce about 500 neonate snakes each year specifically for the purpose of selling to other breeders.

[Casslanpepci]

All 3 of our Greyhounds have done, the latest on the 27th Jan 2009.

 

[ErinBear]

My cat is fixed. She has been fixed a long time now

 

[CRAZY_CAT_WOMAN]

All of my pets are fixed except the gold fish.

LOL well ive never heard of spaying and neutering for snakes anyways so i dont think they count

 

[Aeris]

I voted yes all the pets I own and have ever owned have been spayed or neutered except for the cat I have now, I took him in from outside in october. Hes an indoor cat now and so hes not contributing to overpopulation and hasnt started spraying yet, hoping that wont happen too soon. He will be getting neutered as soon as I have money for it.

 

[Birbitt]

Both of my female cats are spayed and we just got a male cat given to us and he has an appointment to be neutered next month and until he gets neutered he'll be staying inside with my two females only!

 

[SparkyMaddie]

every single one of them are

In australia they are neutered/spayed as young as 6weeks old! So people who say they pets aren't old enough-is just ridiculous-6week old is common age that our aussie shelter spay and neuter! Fact is both dogs and cats can be at 4months old, however the average is 6month old.

I had my dog spayed at 6months old!

"being old enough" is a relative term. An animal may be old enough according to some criteria but if your vet doesn't think it is old enough, the vet isn't going to do the job. It took 8 months and one heat cycle for my vet to consider my German Shepherd old enough for spaying. When I was younger I remember (probably incorrectly) that they spayed/neutered at a younger age here in the United States.

Mostly the 'being old enough' in my view is so they'll have a better likelihood of coming through the anesthesia without complications.
