Spayed and neutered pets are healthier and happier. Below are  some of the benefits:

Spayed/neutered animals tend to live longer

Spayed females do not suffer from uterine or ovarian cancer

Neutering males drastically reduces chances of prostate and testicular cancer

Neutered pets are more loving and better tempered

Neutered cats are less likely to mark or spray their territory

Spayed females do not experience messy heat cycles

Neutered pets are less likely to bite

Neutered males are less likely to run away or fight

In addition, it is crucial to spay and neuter your pets to help curb - and someday stop - the pet overpopulation crisis.  

Pot bellied pigs, which are highly intelligent, popular pets, are overbred and, as a result, often wind up in deplorable conditions, including being sold at auctions.  They flood the shelter systems and rescues are overflowing with them. 

While pet overpopulation is a country-wide problem, Tails Of Nye County concentrates on helping locally.  The Nye County Animal Shelter receives far more cats, dogs, puppies and kittens than they - or anyone else - can find homes for.  The only way to alleviate this heartbreaking situation is by spaying and neutering. 

We can make the choice to be part of the problem or part of the solution.   Let's ALL try to be "part of the solution".
