You might feel guilty about the idea of putting your pet through surgery to be spayed or neutered. Perhaps you don't want to spend the extra money for something that seems non-essential. Animal Health Center, an animal hospital located in Enterprise, AL, regularly conducts routine pet surgery like spaying and neutering and can reassure you that it is a safe, reasonably priced, and important procedure.

Veterinarian medicine practitioners agree that spaying and neutering provides: 

• A Longer Life For Your Dog Or Cat: When you spay a female animal, you reduce the risk that she will contract breast cancer or a uterine infection. Breast cancer can be fatal. Animals are even more protected if you spay before the dog or cat has their first menstrual cycle. In males, neutering helps to prevent testicular cancer. 
• Lower Veterinary Costs In The Long Run: Neutering and spaying are much less costly than having a litter on your hands! You may also run the risk that your intact male cat or dog will wander far from home seeking a mate and potentially get into a fight with another animal or get hit by a car. The vet bills from these kinds of incidents can be much higher than a simple neutering or spaying procedure.
• Improved Pet Behavior: A intact dog may become more aggressive and is more inclined to mark territory by urinating on it. Cats that are intact may spray parts of your house to make their mark. Get the surgery done before this type of behavior becomes a common practice for your animal.

Unless you own your dog or cat expressly for breeding purposes, there is simply no good reason not to neuter or spay them. You can prolong their life, ensure better behavior, and save money. For safe, affordable, and effective pet surgery, call Animal Health Center at (888) 472-1343.
