Spaying and neutering your pets is one of the most important things you can do to improve their health, prevent overpopulation, and support your community. ?

Here?s why it matters:

? Prevents Unwanted Litters: Millions of cats and dogs enter shelters every year. Spaying and neutering helps reduce the number of homeless animals and overcrowded shelters.

? Healthier, Longer Lives: Spayed and neutered pets are less likely to develop certain cancers and infections, and often live longer, healthier lives.

? Improves Behavior: Neutering can reduce aggression, roaming, and marking behaviors. Spayed pets won't go into heat, which can be stressful for them?and for you!

? Saves Lives: When you fix your pet, you?re helping reduce the number of animals that end up in shelters or euthanized due to lack of space and resources.

At the York County SPCA, we believe in proactive, compassionate care?and spaying and neutering is at the heart of that mission. ?

Make a difference. Fix your pet. Save a life.
