SPAY/NEUTER

Spay and neuter is one of the simplest ways to make Houston a better place for pets, and it's a big part of what we do at Citizens for Animal Protection.

Right now, more puppies and kittens are born in our area each year than there are homes waiting for them. A single unplanned litter can turn into dozens of animals within a few years, and many end up in shelters or fending for themselves outside. When you spay or neuter your pet, you help stop that cycle before it starts.

It's good for your pet, too. Spayed and neutered pets often live longer, healthier lives, with a lower risk of certain cancers and infections. Many are also calmer and less likely to wander off. Curious about what's fact and what's fiction? Our Spay / Neuter - Myths & Benefits article answers the questions pet owners ask most.

We practice what we preach. Every dog and cat adopted from CAP goes home already spayed or neutered, and each year we perform thousands of surgeries, including for community cats through our FCAP program.

We also work with low-cost spay/neuter clinics and veterinarians across the Houston area, and our Cornelius Clinic offers affordable vaccines and wellness care. Together, vaccinations, heartworm prevention, and spay/neuter give your pet the best chance at a long, happy life with you.
