Both spaying and neutering are surgical procedures that prevent an animal from reproducing. Spaying and neutering are typically recommended for pets that are at least 6 months old and are not going to be used for breeding. Spaying is performed on female animals and involves surgically removing the uterus and ovaries to prevent pregnancy. Neutering is implemented on male animals and encompasses removing the testicles to eliminate fertility. While each of these surgeries sounds involved, they can usually be completed within a few hours and do not require an overnight hospital stay. Upon discharge from the hospital, owners will speak with a Veterinary Technician to learn how to provide quality and careful post-surgical care.
