What are the benefits of cat neutering?
Benefits of cat sterilization:
1. Extend the life of cats. Cats that have been neutered can live about twice as long as cats that have not been neutered and cats that have given birth.
2. Neutered cats will not be infected with sexually transmitted diseases, such as feline AIDS (a cat immune system disease).
3. Let the cat get rid of the tension, irritability, and loss of appetite caused by estrus, and restore its original lively nature. Moreover, male cats will also get rid of the habit of spraying urine to vent their anger.
4. Cats will no longer get lost due to heat, avoiding the double pain of owners and cats.
5. Avoid blind breeding and control the number of stray cats.
Care for cats after sterilization:
1. Cats cannot be bathed after the operation. The earliest time for the cat to be bathed is about half a month after the operation, when the wound is completely healed. Moreover, due to the anesthesia, the cat’s consciousness is not very clear, so it may be easy to attack people during this period, and the owner must pay attention.
2. If proper care is taken after the operation, there is no postoperative infection and the wound heals well, the sutures can usually be removed in 8 to 10 days. The suture removal process is very simple and can be completed in about 1 minute, so parents only need to hold the cat well and let the cat expose its belly. Within 2 days after the sutures are removed, wipe the wound with alcohol swabs or iodine and fluoride 3 times a day.
3. Do not force the cat to eat. Under normal circumstances, if there are no other diseases, it does not matter if the cat does not eat for several days. When its gastrointestinal function is weak, forced feeding can also cause vomiting. Cats have a strong ability to adjust themselves, and they will eat automatically when their condition after surgery is better.
