Neutering is a surgical procedure to spay or castrate your pet to ensure they are no longer able to breed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is pet spaying?

Spaying your pet involves the surgical removal of the reproductive organs. In females, these are the ovaries and uterus. This procedure is called an ovariohysterectomy, or spay. Spaying is used for birth control.

What is pet castration?

Castration is the removal of the testes’ functionality. Surgical castration is the removal of excision of both testes. Chemical castration uses pharmaceutical drugs to deactivate the testes. Pet castration is used for both birth control and behaviour management purposes.
