Just as neutering may be a healthy, responsible choice, it can lead to a healthier life for you and your pet that lasts even longer. Get your kitty or doggy neutered at Stanfield Veterinary Hospital in Mississauga to prevent unwanted litters and reduce the risk of certain health and behavior problems in the future.
Neutering (surgically removing the testicles in male pets) is a critical component of population control and provides many health benefits. But in males, it decreases the chance of testicular cancer and diseases of the prostate and can significantly decrease behaviors like roaming, aggression, and marking.
By offering to neuter your pets, you are making a healthier lifestyle choice while conserving the stray animal population and preventing overcrowding in shelters.
The comfort and safety of your pet are our highest priorities. Our veterinary staff does neutering under general anesthesia. Our team inspects your pet’s entire health before surgery and performs blood work (if necessary) to help ascertain if your pet is healthy enough for anesthesia.
Once the procedure is complete, we offer comprehensive post-operative care instructions, pain management, and follow-up support to ensure a seamless recovery. “For most pets, it’s just a few days, and they return to themselves.
Neutering is commonly recommended between 5 and 6 months of age, but timing may vary depending on your pet’s breed, size, and overall health. Our veterinary team will advise you on the best time for the procedure when you bring your pet in for a wellness exam.
At Stanfield Veterinary Hospital, we consider ourselves part of your family. That’s why we are 100% committed to your happiness and the well being of your pet.
