Why Spay/Neuter?

Pet overpopulation means destroying thousands of dogs and cats each year. Too many puppies and kittens—not enough homes. In metro Atlanta alone, approximately 166 dogs and cats are destroyed each day at local shelters. We can only estimate the number of other homeless animals that die of starvation, disease, or on our streets.

Improve Your Pet's Health

Neutering a male cat or dog by six months of age prevents testicular cancer, prostate disease, and hernias.

Spaying a female cat or dog prevents pyometra (an infected uterus) and breast cancer. Having this done before the first heat offers the best protection from these diseases. Breast cancer is fatal in about 50% of female dogs and 90% of female cats. With an older, seriously ill animal, anesthesia and surgery are complicated and costly.

Reduce Expenses

Reduce Expenses

Owners of unspayed female cats and dogs must care for mothers who have difficult pregnancies and should start the kittens’ or puppies’ shots.

In many locations, owners of spayed or neutered cats and dogs receive a discount on local licensing fees. Spaying a female cat or dog prevents pyometra (an infected uterus) and breast cancer.

Improve the Community

Improve the Community

Homeless animals in neighborhood yards pass diseases, spread fleas and flea eggs, fight and mate loudly in the middle of the night, turn over trash cans, and otherwise disrupt quiet community life.

Tax dollars are needlessly spent on euthanasia and other controls intended to eliminate these problems.

Pet Overpopulation

70,000

Approximately 70,000 puppies and kittens are born in the U.S. each day.

25,000,000

An estimated 25 million of these dogs and cats are left homeless each year.

17,000,000

At least 17 million dogs and cats are destroyed yearly in shelters.

11,000,000

An estimated 7 to 11 million die a painful death from starvation, disease, traps, exposure, and at the wheels of motor vehicles.

Widespread spaying/neutering can significantly reduce the number of homeless animals. This is a humane alternative to the “impound and destroy” system used by animal control agencies.
SpayGeorgia depends entirely on membership fees, the generous donations from members and the community, grants, and fundraising events to support our programs.

We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Approximately 85% of donated money goes directly to spay/neutering. Restricted donations are accepted. Our annual financial report is available upon request.

SpayGeorgia is grateful for the support of the LuluMa Foundation.
