As responsible pet owners, it's important to provide our furry friends with the best possible care, ensuring they lead happy, healthy lives. One of the most critical steps in this journey is spaying and neutering. These routine surgical procedures not only prevent overpopulation but also offer a myriad of health and behavioral benefits. Despite its significance, many pet owners have questions and concerns about spaying and neutering. If you would like to learn more or would like to schedule your pet for spaying or neutering, please contact our veterinary clinic in Fort Collins.
Why Spay or Neuter Your Pet?

When Should You Spay or Neuter Your Pet?
The following are general guidelines but timing can vary based on the species, breed, and overall health of your pet.

Dogs
Typically between 6 to 9 months of age, though some can be done as early as 8 weeks if they are healthy.
Cats
Usually around 5 to 6 months of age, but they can also be spayed or neutered as early as 8 weeks if in good health.
