The Number One Pet Killer
It's the leading cause of death among dogs and cats, but you'll never see it on the six
o'clock news. Don't expect to read about it either-not even in magazines for pet lovers.
It causes over 90% of companion animal deaths in the United States. The dog hit by a car was
killed by it. The "indoor-outdoor" cat that caught feline leukemia was caught by it. Every
stray facing euthanasia in every animal shelter in the country will die of it.
The free-running dog, the "semi-stray" cat, the millions of unwanted animals in shelters -
and millions more breeding in the streets and fields - all face death by overpopulation. It
will be called something else - injury, disease, euthanasia-but the simple truth will be the
same.
Too many pets.
Now for the good news! There's a cure for this terrible condition, and it's as simple as two
words.
"NEUTER" and "SPAY"
