Lots of healthy animals in Australia are euthanised each year due to over-population. In many cases, animals are bred by accident.
Desexing makes it cheaper to register your cat or dog. You can save more than a third of the registration cost. Benefits of desexing include:
- helping to reduce over-population
- pets being less prone to wander or fight
- reducing territorial behaviour such as spraying indoors
- pets being less likely to suffer from anti-social behaviours
- helping to reduce the risk of certain types of cancer.
