Spay and Neuter in Oakville
Cornwall Animal Hospital offers affordable spay or neuter surgeries to pets in Greater Toronto Area. Give your furry companion a longer and a happy healthier life by getting him or her spayed or neutered
What are spay and neuter?
Spaying is the surgical removal of a female pet’s reproductive organs (ovaries and uterine horns) so that she can no longer become pregnant. Neuter is the surgical procedure involving the removal of a male pet’s testicles so that he can no longer impregnate a female. The veterinarian at Cornwall Animal hospital performs these surgeries by putting the animals under general anesthesia so that they do not feel any pain. An animal may experience discomfort after the surgery, but Cornwall Animal Hospital provides medication to help calm the uneasiness. Microchipping can also be done at the time of the spay/neuter surgery. It’s important to know that before you bring your pet for their spay or neuter procedure that all vaccinations must be up to date. This policy is for the protection of all of our patients.
What are the benefits of spaying or neutering my pet?
Spaying and neutering can increase the lifespan of your pet and improve his or her quality of life. Here are the health and behavioral benefits:
Female pets will never suffer from a potentially life-threatening uterine infection (pyometra) or uterine cancer and are very less likely to suffer from urinary tract infections and breast cancer.
Female pets won’t show any mood swings, vocalization, restlessness, and other bothersome behavior brought on by heat cycles. Spayed Female pets won’t leave the messy spotting behind and not attract any attention from males. Far less expensive than the cost of having an emergency c-section, treating an infection, or raising puppies or kittens.No accidental pregnancies, so you won’t have to spend extra for the medical care of a pregnant animal and her pups/kittens, or bear the responsibility of finding good homes for all of them.
Males will never suffer from testicular cancer, prostate issue, and peri-anal Hernia.
Males are less likely to roam, act aggressively towards other males, or mark their territory with urine.
Why should I spay or neuter my pet?
Too many pet owners do not have their pets spayed or neutered, and this has resulted in an immense population growth leaving many animals homeless in Greater Toronto Area and across Canada. This has also created financial stress on rescue agencies and nonprofit animal shelters and citizens who are finding ways to address this problem. We recommend that pet owners have their pets spayed-neutered as soon as possible.
