The decision to neuter your cat is the most important decision in terms of its health and well-being. It also applies to other cats and cats, because the large number of these animals is a serious problem. Every day, cats have to be killed because there is not enough room in the cattery for everyone.
Some people think that as long as they keep cats locked up, there is no problem. But there are other health and behavioral reasons for sterilization.
What happens if the cat is not spayed
An unspayed cat that goes outside will fight and mate regularly. Mating in the feline family is a very unpleasant and painful process. This is a lot of stress for the cat and even a kind of violence.
In addition, during mating, a cat can become infected with an infectious disease and then transmit it to other animals. The birth of kittens, especially at a young age, is associated with a risk for a cat.
Do not think that if an uncastrated cat does not walk, then it will not suffer the fate of a street tramp. Cats run away from home very often. It is very easy for a pet to slip through a door or jump out of a window and run outside without you even noticing.
Repeated periods of estrus are very stressful for the animal. A cat that has not been castrated will meow loudly, try to escape, and become a victim of its own hormones. The life of such an adult cat will be filled with stress. All family members will be nervous, because the savage will not give rest to anyone. It will be unpleasant to live with her.
Males feel very good estrus in females. The cat will attract every free cat in the area. You will witness feline fights in your yard. Cats will compete over the cat and mark the walls of your house.
If a cat is neutered before the first estrus, many diseases such as breast, ovarian and uterine cancers can be avoided.
Take responsibility
There is no reason to leave your cat uncastrated. If the problem is money, then you can find an inexpensive clinic and neuter the cat there. If you have not yet taken home a cat, then take an already neutered animal. This way you will avoid having to carry out the operation and pay for it.
Do you think your children will be delighted with the miracle of birth, which will happen several times a year? Better to think about how to teach your child to take responsibility for the animal, caring for him and giving him love throughout his life.
Learning to be considerate, responsible, kind and caring is much more important than watching the birth of kittens, which are likely to end their lives in an animal shelter, on the street or die.
How is the operation going
Neutering your cat is not a big risk. Surgery removes the uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes of the cat. After about ten days, the sutures are removed.
