If Fold-eared cats and dogs are not reproducing, it is recommended that they be neutered. What we are talking about today is the sterilization surgery of Fold-eared cats. Fold-eared cats are divided into female and male, so the sterilization surgery will be different. Let’s take a look at the sterilization method of Fold-eared cats and their sterilization procedures. Things to note, I hope this helps.

How to sterilize Fold-eared cats:

Method 1: Male animal surgery

1. Removing the testicles of a cat with folded ears is called castration;

2. The main purpose of animal sterilization is to block the male hormone of the folded-eared cat, reduce the anxiety of sexual frustration, and let it keep its place.

Method 2: Birth Control for Female Animals

1. Complete removal of the uterus and ovaries

Complete removal of the uterus and ovaries of folded-eared cats is also the most recommended sterilization method.

2. Keep the ovaries and only remove the uterus

Some people advocate leaving the ovaries of cats with folded ears, believing that complete removal can easily cause skin diseases or endocrine disorders. This is nonsense without theoretical basis. The clinical symptoms displayed by individual animals are also different. The ovaries remain, so I only need a hysterectomy, but I won’t get pregnant.

3. Simple ligation

Simple ligation is the most inappropriate surgical method for cats with folded ears. Animals often develop uterine pus soon after surgery. This surgery must not be performed.

4. Contraceptive pills

It is a hormonal preparation that can achieve a contraceptive effect when a Fold-eared cat is in estrus. However, the disadvantage is that it needs to be administered every time it is in estrus, so it is impossible to sit back and relax. If you forget to administer it once, pregnancy will inevitably occur.

5. Abortion to terminate pregnancy

This is a female hormone preparation that is administered to folded-eared cats 3-5 days after mating to prevent embryo implantation. However, special attention should be paid to the fact that this drug is not absolutely safe. Some individuals will produce bone marrow suppression, resulting in no regeneration. The worst thing about the phenomenon of anemia and thrombocytopenia is that once this suppression occurs, it cannot be cured. Supportive therapy or blood transfusion can only be used when the condition is too bad. It will be normal after the bone marrow suppression naturally subsides. Clinically, we often find cases where bone marrow suppression cannot be overcome and eventually lead to death. Therefore, once conception occurs, I would recommend surgical removal or giving birth to a small animal. I do not recommend abortion to solve the problem, because it is impossible to be sure that this is absolutely safe.

6. Sterilization needle

It is a biological agent originally used to treat human breast cancer, ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, prostate cancer and other diseases. It uses immune response to neutralize pituitary hormones. Studies have found that this drug is very effective in sterilizing folded-eared cats and dogs. OK, after 3 doses, the gonads can be completelyshrink, thereby achieving the sterilization effect, but this drug is still undergoing animal testing and has not yet been marketed.

Method 3: Appropriate timing for sterilization

There is no certain answer as to when is the appropriate time to perform surgery on a cat with folded ears. But as long as the vaccinations are complete and the body is in good condition, surgery can be performed at any time, except for male cats with folded ears. However, in order to avoid unnecessary pregnancy, the sooner the surgery is performed, the better. Many foreign experts and scholars have done research on early sterilization. They believe that early sterilization is better for folded-eared cats: folded-eared cats recover from surgery earlier, develop into larger bodies, and are less likely to be lazy and gain weight. phenomenon occurs, the animal body develops better.
