Help w/ spaying and neutering persuasive speech.?
Health reasons.....decreases the risk of prostate and testicular cancer in males, reduces the risk of mastitis, mammory tumors and pyometra (infected uterus) in females. Reduces overpopulation and dogs who are spayed/neutered have less behavioral problems...that's atleast a start...good luck!
I have a 10 w/o puppy who has excessive thirst and urination. Any ideas on what is causing it?
She urinated four times in the span of ten minutes. She acts like she hasn't seen water in a month and as soon as water is presented she drains it. She climbs into the shower to drink the water on the drain and fights to try to drink out of mud puddles. I have started to restrict her water intake, but still she is urinated rather frequently. Because of this i am having a hard time potty training her.
Should I get my female cat spayed or my male cat neutered?
You need to get them both fixed. Spaying and neutering will help both of your animals and you. It will make their behavior more manageable. Male cats will spray if left intact, this is very stinky and hard to clean. Female cats will be obnoxious, noisy, and aggressive during heat.Furthermore, a neutered male cat will still try to mate with an unfixed female in heat. Cats having sex is not a quiet activity. It is loud and terrifying. This is due to the male cat’s spiny penis raking the walls of the female’s vagina as he exits. Needless to say, this isn’t a pleasant experience for the female.The tension from these behaviors can also permanently damage the relationships between your cats and other animals. It is not a pleasant experience for any being within earshot. It can mean literally months of stress.If you absolutely have to choose one: fix the female. Male spray is disgusting… but at least it is only temporary. I highly recommend you do both though.
