Are there benefits to spaying my cat?

Valley Veterinary Care recommends that all non-breeding female cats be spayed before the age of 2 and ½.  In this procedure, the ovaries and uterus are removed to sterilize a female cat and there are several health benefits associated with spaying your cat before the age of 2 and ½:

• The risk of developing breast cancer is reduced to 0.5% by spaying before 2 years of age.
• Elimination of the risk of ovarian and uterine cancer
• Hormonal changes of heat cycles may interfere with diabetes and epilepsy treatments
• Prevention of unplanned pregnancies
• Elimination of unsociable behavior
• Elimination of heat cycles every 2-3 weeks
