Michigan shelters kill over 200,000 healthy pets every year. The best way to reduce the number of pets entering shelters is to spay or neuter your pets. Neutering male dogs and cats is good for behavior and health. Neutered animals do not roam, spray and are less aggressive. Neutering prevents testicular cancer. Spaying female dogs and cats eliminates the annoyance of the heat cycle, prevents pyometria, a deadly infection of the uterus and reduces the threat of mammary gland cancer. There are low cost spay neuter clinics and programs located throughout Michigan to make it easier to care for your pets.
