Spaying Or Neutering Your Pet in Lancaster

  • Service available at our both locations

At AV Veterinary Center, we know your pet is more than just a dog or cat; they are part of your family. One of the most loving decisions you can make for them is selecting to spay or neuter. These simple, routine surgeries can give your furry friend a healthier, calmer, and sometimes longer life. Moreover, they help lower the number of homeless pets in our community.

What Does Spaying Or Neutering Really Mean?

Spaying is the surgery for female pets to prevent them from going into heat or becoming pregnant.

Neutering is the surgery for male pets to prevent them from fathering litters.

Both are safe, common procedures that veterinarians perform every day, and the benefits last a lifetime.

Health Benefits You Will See

Spaying or neutering does so much more than prevent puppies or kittens – 

  • For female pets, it removes the risk of severe infections like pyometra and lowers the chance of breast cancer.
  • For male pets, it prevents testicular cancer and reduces the risk of prostate issues. 
  • For all pets – Studies show spayed and neutered pets live longer, healthier lives.

When you choose to spay or neuter, you are protecting your pet from preventable diseases and giving them the best chance at a long, happy life.

A Calmer, Happier Companion

If you have ever lived with a cat in heat or a dog determined to roam the neighborhood, you know how stressful it can be. Spaying and neutering often helps with – 

  • Less marking or spraying in the house 
  • Decreased roaming and escaping
  • Reduce aggression and fighting 
  • Reduced restless or loud behaviors during heat cycles

Your pet stays safer, is more focused on family life, and is easier to enjoy every day.

Helping Pets Everywhere

Every year, numerous cats and dogs end up in shelters. Many of them are the result of unexpected litter. By spaying or neutering your pet, you are doing your part to prevent this cycle and give more animals a chance at loving homes. It is a small act with a huge impact on the community.

When Is The Best Time?

Most pets can be safely spayed or neutered while they are still young, mainly between 4 and 9 months. But the right time depends on your pet’s age, breed, and health. Our veterinarians will guide you so you can feel confident about the decision.
