Tuesday: They told me if I fixed Patch he wouldn't be as aggresive...WRONG! He was meaner!!! I just believe in fixing so they can't reproduce irresponsibly and to reduce the risk of certain cancers.
Tuesday: OMG! me too! It IS embarrassing!! they said,oh,we will just take them out and dump them at the farm,they always need cats....uh,NO THEY DON'T...that angered me!!
CinnamonGirl: yeah..it's abandonment!! I don't understand the way people think! Oh,it's to expensive to get ONE fixed...you get ONE fixed and you can literally save dozens if not hundreds of lives of animals! If people did nothing but CONTROLLED bredding,overpopulation wouldn't be a problem,but unfortanatly,you have people like our families,you have back yard breeders...shame really.My parents had like 5 cats at one time...you know all outside "mousers" as people call them.Not one of them they had fixed and they started to multiply,FAST..well,after so long,they got overwhelmed and took them and dumped them all at some farms,still unfixed.Stupid!!
anastasia: I've always said if I ever won the lotto and had a lot of money I would pay all the vets in my province to have one day a month to advertise spaying and neutering cats (cats run wild here not dogs so I want to concentrate on lowering the feral cat population). I would foot the bill. It would help a little bit. It drives me mad when I see cats outside in my neighbourhood and then see them preggo every year. I am also a firm believer that cats in cities and urban areas do not belong outdoors. Too many things to harm them like disease, cars, people, not to mention fleas. If you love your cats keep them in doors and get them fixed! I have 11 cats and each one was fixed as soon as they were old enough.
CinnamonGirl: Yes youre right they can. Scarey isn't it? Maybe by us discussing it here we can spread the word a bit. I know there are vets in every city around here that will fix a cat if a person has absolutely no money at all. My vet also takes a payment plan if you really need to get your animal spayed or neutered and are low on cash. There is no reason to NOT get it done.
Rose: Dogs should also be put into that catagory of getting fixed,Although I feel like a bit of a hipocrite on that because of us not having Damien fixed yet.If it was my choice,he would be fixed and we would get a pound pup.Hubby wants to breed Damien though and we will take pick of the litter.The ONE plus to that,is,it WILL be a planned pregnancy,the female will be chossen carefully to ensure the bloodline stays strong with no genetic defects.Pups from the litter go for about $2,000.00 so I'm sure that people paying that kind of money would be more responsible.Although one never knows.These dogs are used for protection,police and military.Damien will soon be trained in tracking and is my goal to have him someday help in a missing person case.We will be getting him fixed after the conception takes place though.
