I think everyone who has raised a cat has experienced the horror of a cat in heat, right? Suddenly it is no longer the lovable cat you are familiar with. It begins to urinate everywhere and scratch in order to go out. Screens on windows and doors or furniture, crying loudly in the middle of the night, unstable tempers, fights with other animals, fluctuations in appetite, etc., make you as the owner really angry, worried and distressed. Maybe as an owner, you can tolerate the cat's various behaviors, but what about your family? What about your neighbors? Can they tolerate it? If others can't tolerate it, can you bravely bear the blame and pressure of others and remain consistent? Do you take good care of your cat? If not, then take it for sterilization surgery!

The necessity and importance of cat sterilization:

1. Avoid or reduce the trouble caused by estrus: Cats in estrus for a long time will have abnormal moods, such as meowing, irritability, decreased appetite, etc. After sterilization, female cats will stop meowing, and male cats will become less chaotic. Peeing situation.

2. Controlling the number of stray cats: Although on the surface the problem of stray dogs is more serious, in fact more and more stray cats appear in the streets and alleys, and they continue to breed. So if your cat has the urge to run away at any time or simply wanders outside, you need to consider having it "neutered"!

3. Avoid pathological changes and obesity: Reduce or avoid the occurrence of reproductive system diseases. No matter whether cats have had "sexual experience" or not, when they gradually enter old age, the function of the reproductive system will begin to decline or produce lesions.

For female cats, gynecological problems that may occur include pyometra, breast tumors, ovarian cysts and tumors, etc., while for male cats, testicular tumors and prostate hypertrophy may occur. Don’t underestimate these problems! Once they occur, if surgery cannot be performed immediately, the cat may end its life prematurely and painfully in a short period of time. However, because the cat has entered old age at this time, its heart, lung, liver and kidney function will deteriorate. It is no longer as good as it was when I was young, and the risks of surgical anesthesia are relatively higher.

In addition, older cats may also develop some internal secretion problems such as diabetes, thyroid dysfunction, adrenal gland dysfunction, etc. The treatment and control of these diseases will be interfered by the hormones secreted by the ovaries or testicles, leading to instability of the condition and increasing the difficulty of treatment and control. In this case, the success of the sterilization surgery can only depend on the cat’s willpower, the doctor’s superb skills, and God’s blessing!

As for the problems that may be caused by sterilization surgery, according to rumors, they are getting fatter and lazier or having a bigger personality.However, in all current research reports in this area, it is not believed that sterilization will cause these two side effects.
