Please don't litter - spay or neuter your critter!

Think it can't make a difference if you spay or neuter your pet? Think that your cat or dog is purebred or "has papers" that its offsprings will be of value? Thinking that "just one litter" won't hurt anyone?

Look at the pictures below and think again! And neutering your pet has also other advantages:

• Female animals on heat attract howling males, more sleep, less noise.
• Intact males are more likely to roam (and get lost). 
• Less territorial marking :)
• Neutering reduces dominance and aggression.
• Neutering reduces the risk of prostate disorders and other disease.
• You save animals from being euthanized due to full shelters. 

There's a right time and a wrong time to have the surgery done. Do not neuter too early, your animal needs its reproductive hormones help to develop its bones and joints properly.

Pets do not make good presents.

Christmas is at the door step. Pets do not make good presents.

• Please remember it is a commitment to care for a dog, cat or even hamster for years. 
• Consider the time and costs (food, vet,...) you must spend for your furry friend. 
• There are a lot of puppies and kittens waiting in animal shelters. Go and visit KSPCA in Karen and read "15 reasons to consider a recue dog".
• Do not buy from the street or breeders that are not willing to show you the parents and how they are kept. It is very likely you are buying a dog from a puppy miller.

Tiger recovers from a femoral bone fracture

Tiger suffered a femoral bone fracture of the right hind limb. Our team did their best to fix the fracture so that she could have a happy, productive life. We fixed the fracture using an IM pin and within two months the bones had united successfully without any complications. The implant was removed. She can now use the limb normally.

Thanks to the cooperative owner!
