Why should I spay or neuter my animal?

Spaying or neutering provides various health and well-being benefits for your animal. It prevents health issues such as uterine infections and cancers while controlling undesirable behaviors like territorial marking and wandering. By contributing to reducing animal overpopulation, it enhances overall well-being, promoting a calm demeanor. Spaying or neutering promotes a better quality of life by eliminating risks associated with uncontrolled reproduction. Before making a decision, consult our team for personalized advice.

Can I spay or neuter my animal at an advanced age?

Spaying or neutering can be performed at an advanced age, still offering benefits such as preventing health problems and controlling undesirable behaviors. A consultation with our veterinary team is essential, where they will assess your animal's health, discuss specific age-related advantages, and tailor the procedure to minimize risks. Although early spaying or neutering is often recommended, it remains a viable option at an advanced age, with an informed decision in collaboration with experienced veterinary professionals.
