We can help with neutering costs
Using one of the vets involved in our scheme, you can receive up to 50% off the cost of having your dog or rabbit neutered and only have to contribute £15 towards the cost of having your cat neutered. At any other veterinary practice, we can cover up to 25% of the cost of neutering your animals.
To enquire about neutering your animal, email at neutering@rspca-suffolkcentral.org.uk
HELP & ADVICE
The benefits of neutering
Prevents unwanted pregnancies
Prevents females from coming into season, attracting unwanted male attention which can lead to pregnancy or false pregnancies. Unspayed female animals can be messy when they come into season, as they can bleed for up to three weeks.
Long-term health benefits
Prevents the risk of testicular cancer in males and uterus infections and cancers in females. Neutering a female ferret can also prevent often severe health problems such as alopecia and anaemia.
Improves behaviour
Reduces urine marking and roaming in male dogs and cats. Can reduce aggressive behaviour in mature male ferrets, as well as the smell often associated with them!
