Neutering

We can perform neutering on all domestic animals at both our Sidmouth and Neasden clinics.

Neutering in females (spaying) is advisable for owners who do not wish to breed and want to avoid disease changes associated with entire bitches. Spaying prevents life threatening infections of the womb (pyometra) and if the bitch is spayed before she is mature then the chances of developing breast tumours later in life are considerably reduced. 

In males, neutering can reduce aggression and improve animals' social habits. Neutered cats are shown to encounter less conflict and live longer than their unneutered counterparts. Neutering will prevent testicular cancer and reduce the chance of developing prostate disease. 

If you have any questions we would love to discuss this further with you.
