Pets can be altered as early as 4 months old. Talk to your veterinarian about spaying or neutering your pet.
There are several health and behavioral benefits to spaying (female pets) and neutering (male pets). For many of us, our pets are just like family. We dote on them, love them, and want to ensure the best care for them. At Watauga Humane Society, we feel the same and aim to help educate pet owners about these benefits while also helping control pet populations.
Spaying/neutering your pet is a great way to keep your pet healthy, but what about other veterinary care? Establishing a relationship with a veterinarian helps monitor your pet’s health, ensuring any problems are caught early and treated before they turn into bigger issues. Your pet’s veterinarian also sets up a vaccination schedule so your pet is protected against common viruses.
The Watauga Humane Society mission includes promoting spay/neuter for all pets in our community. Contact us for information about how we can assist you!
If you have a cat colony, please contact us and see information on the WHS Cat Programs.
