Prevent a Litter Coalition's
Public Service Announcement
Some
people think that neutering their pet may hurt them.
Actually, neutering helps prevent some harmful medical
problems for animals and decreases their chances of getting
cancer. Neutering also deters high-risk behavior such as
roaming, getting into fights, and mating. So, neutering your
pet doesn't hurt – it helps.
Don't use your cats and dogs to teach your children about
the birds and the bees. Between 8-12 million companion
animals are killed each year in America due to lack of
homes. Don't let your pet have even one litter. Spay or
neuter today.
Many cat lovers feel it is kinder for Kitty to be allowed
outdoors. Statistics show that 90% of the millions of cats
killed on our roads each year are unsterilized. Fertile cats
tend to get into fights and wander more. So, please, if you
must let Kitty go out, make sure he or she is fixed!
Why did Spot cross the road? He loved the ladies.
Unfortunately, his latest girlfriend lived on the far side
of the highway. Spot never made it to the other side. About
80% of dogs hit by vehicles each year are un-neutered males.
Fixing your pet decreases the urge to wander and increases
his chances of living a longer, healthier life. Get your pet
fixed.
For every person that is born, 15 dogs and 45 cats are
also born. You do the numbers … There aren't enough homes
for them all. You can solve the problem. Spay or neuter
today.
Only 1 in 9 cats and dogs born in the U.S. will find a
home. The rest will be destroyed because nobody wants them.
Could you choose which animal will live? It's a choice no
one should have to make. But your local animal shelter makes
this decision every day. You can help stop the killing. Spay
or neuter your pet.

years. The solution to the problem of pet overpopulation is

1 + 1 is 4,372. How's that? One female dog and one male
