Here's a very good read about the value of spay/neuter and adopting your next good friend!

BEFORE YOU GET OFFENDED when someone suggests you neuter your pet please read this.

1. Statistically for every kitten sold on Facebook for a few bucks and is actually neutered, another one won't be.

2. Every rescue is dependant on volunteers. Volunteers who lose family time, money, sleep, weekends and evenings caring for and fundraising to ensure unwanted cats get the correct care.

3.Animals have no voice.. So when somebody speaks on their behalf stop getting upset.

4.Uneutered male cats will wander in search of females. They will fight ferociously and cause terrible injury to other males in the process causing FIV and sepsis. And dreadful life threatening diseases.

5. Every litter of kittens born in your home and sold adds to the problem by stopping a rescue cat being adopted.

6. Rescues are full to capacity with cats which have been bought on a whim of Facebook and surrendered or abandoned due to boredom or inability to afford vet bills, Neuter, Vaccs, Food, Flea and worm treatment.

7. Each rescue has a waiting list. They spend literally thousands of dollars (many spend tens of thousands) a year on vet treatment, food, litter, flea and worm treatment, electricity, cleaners and disinfectants and all of the business supplies to keep running. These are just the basics.

8. Behind the scenes volunteers nurse and clean out several times a day. Fundraising is a constant effort. Worrying about cats who have been surrendered and are traumatized by being torn from their families and surroundings. The staff and volunteers carry the guilt of the decisions they have to make.

9. Rescues have volunteers who drive for miles to keep things afloat. Trapping stray cats, picking up unwanted cats and spending hours on the phone trying to find spaces and foster homes for unwanted pets.

10. Volunteers spend their free time and energy picking up the pieces from people who allow cats to have kittens and refuse to neuter.

Please don’t be offended when someone asks are you getting your pet neutered - rescues see the consequences of these actions every day 365 days a year and are simply giving a voice to the vulnerable creatures so casually given away or sold for a few dollars.

Public Service Announcement:

Synthetic aromas are largely made up of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which float through the air, are inhaled, and then enter the bloodstream. These highly popular aromatic liquids are actually chemicals, including benzene, lactones and aldehydes, all of which have been linked to cancer, birth defects, central nervous system disorders, neurological disorders, and/or allergic reactions, including eye, skin and respiratory symptoms.

🐾 Our animals often spend their days stuck inside our homes, unable to get away from these airborne pollutants; if your goal is to remove damaging chemicals from your family’s living environment, the first place to start is by unplugging plug-ins. To learn more about cleaning up your home to improve your furry family’s health, check out our new book The Forever Dog. Available at: www.foreverdog.com
