There should be.
The word neuter means to take something out of the animal so that they cannot have babies, or in the case of the male, they cannot get the girl animals pregnant.
Sterilize or neuter.
No, of course not! Every fertile animal at the zoo is used in a breeding program, if it is necessary, and if the animals are healthy. If the zoo went around gelding Zebras, they'd get no where!
Spay is the sterilization of female animals. (Removal of uterus) Neuter is the sterilization of male animals. (Removal of testicles)
That depends on the animal and the gender of the animal. Ask your vet.
Yes.
Henderson County has proposed an addition to their animal ordinance making it mandatory to spay/neuter at 4 months or purchase an Unaltered Animal Permit for $100 per animal per year. The County has secured a small grant from PetSmart Charities to spay/neuter about 200 animals for low-income residents once this law passes. Animal Control does NOT record the reasons that animals are surrendered; they record only the numbers of strays picked up vs owner turn-ins
For most animals, a veterinarian is the only one who can neuter or castrate; this would include small animals like dogs, cats, ferrets and rodents. Horses also should be castrated by a veterinarian. However, particularly in rural settings, it is not uncommon for an experienced farmer or rancher to castrate his own cattle, sheep, goats and sometimes pigs.
You could volunteer at a local animal shelter(such as the humane society or ASPCA) or vet clinic and walk the dogs. You could also volunteer with local Neuter a tom efforts, available in some areas, where vets do low price neuters on farm cats.
Neutering, from the Latin neuter (neither), is the removal of an animal's reproductive organ, either all of it or a considerably large part of it
Hopefully, London should have the information.
