Spaying and neutering your pet is the best way to prevent overpopulation, reduce aggression, and make sure that your cat stays healthy. The benefits of spaying or neutering your cat are numerous. The practice not only prevents unwanted litters but also makes sure that you don’t have to deal with any health issues down the road as well. But what exactly are the risks of not spaying or neutering my cat? Below is a list of some very common risks associated with not getting your pet fixed:

Fighting

The most obvious risk of not spaying or neutering your cat is that they will fight. Fighting can be dangerous for your pet, and it’s also illegal in many areas.

Fighting between cats can lead to infection with diseases such as feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV). Cats that contract FIV cannot be cured, but the condition does not always result in illness or death; however, if a cat contracts FIV from fighting and then bites another animal or human being, then the person will likely become infected as well! The same goes for other types of infections that may occur during a fight–they could spread to other animals or even humans who come into contact with them!

Cats are also at risk when they are involved in fights because they might get injured during one–even if only slightly injured at first sight (or even without any visible signs), these injuries could worsen over time due to infection until eventually causing serious problems such as arthritis later on down the road…and this isn’t even mentioning how expensive veterinary bills can get!

Urinating outside of their litter box

If your cat is urinating outside of their litter box, it could be because they are not fixed. It’s important to know that cats who have not been spayed or neutered may start marking their territory. This means they will spray urine on things like walls, furniture or in the houseplants. If you notice this behavior in your cat, please contact us immediately so we can schedule an appointment for them to be fixed!

Another reason why some cats urinate outside of their litter box could be because they’re trying to tell you something; maybe there is something wrong with their health or environment? For example: if you move into a new home and don’t give them enough time for adjustment before bringing them inside; then chances are high that they will mark territory (urinate) around wherever their scent is strongest on things such as doors/windowsills etc..

Aggressive behavior

The most common aggression exhibited by cats is territorialism. Male cats are more likely to exhibit this behavior, as it is a natural instinct for them to claim their territory and defend it from other males. Female cats are more likely to spray urine around the house when they feel threatened or anxious. Neutering your cat will reduce their aggressive tendencies significantly, but there’s no guarantee that they’ll never get angry again.

Spaying or neutering your cat can also help alleviate certain medical issues that might arise if they aren’t fixed at all:

  • They’re less likely to develop certain cancers (like prostate cancer).

Hypersexuality

The most common behavioral problems in cats not spayed or neutered are:

  • Hypersexuality (in males)
  • Yowling (in females)

There are also physical risks associated with not having your cat spayed or neutered, including:

  • Increased risk of mammary cancer and uterine infection in females; and testicular cancer in males.

Overpopulation

Spaying or neutering your pet is an important decision, and one that you should consider carefully. However, there are some risks associated with not having your cat spayed or neutered.

The most common risk is overpopulation of cats in shelters and on streets. When pets aren’t spayed or neutered, they can have litters of kittens–sometimes as many as three at a time! This can lead to overcrowding in animal shelters, which means there aren’t enough homes for all the animals who need them; it also puts more pressure on local resources like food banks and veterinary clinics. If you’re concerned about helping out animals in need by adopting from a shelter rather than buying from breeders (who often sell purebred animals), then consider getting your own cats fixed before bringing home another stray kitten whose mother may be pregnant too…

There are many reasons why it is beneficial to spay and neuter your pet.

Spaying and neutering your cat is a good way to control the pet population. It reduces the risk of certain diseases, as well as behavioral problems and cancers. Spaying also helps to reduce aggression in pets.

Some of these benefits include:

  • Spaying eliminates the risk of uterine infections and ovarian cysts, which are common in female cats who haven’t been spayed.
  • Neutering eliminates testicular cancer in males, who have an increased risk if they aren’t neutered before 6 months old (and even earlier for some breeds).

Conclusion

Spaying and neutering is a great way to keep your pet healthy and happy. It also helps to control the population of stray animals in your neighborhood, which is good for all parties involved.
