Benefits of sterilizing female cats:

1. Neutering can reduce the occurrence of diseases. Due to different physiological structures of cats, many diseases may occur due to estrus and childbirth. For female cats, too high a frequency of estrus can cause ovarian cysts, and cats that have given birth may have problems such as pyometra, breast tumors, ovarian tumors, and uterine fibroids.

2. Improve the quality of life and reduce the possibility of getting lost. The common symptoms of cats during estrus are nervousness, irritability, and loss of appetite. During estrus, cats will crazily want to go out and frequently jump out of windows and buildings. Neutering can avoid these problems.

3. Avoid the risks that may arise from childbirth. Under the premise that ordinary owners lack the knowledge and medical environment to care for female cats during pregnancy, the mortality rate of both female cats and kittens will be high.

4. Cats that have been neutered are more likely to maintain an innocent and happy character, can better maintain their youthful mentality, and are also conducive to extending their lifespan.

Precautions for cat sterilization:

1. The best time for sterilization: after the cat goes into heat for the first time. If the female cat is neutered after giving birth to kittens: wait at least one month before neutering.

2. You need to fast for 8 hours and water for 4 hours before surgery. Take a bath 3-5 days before neutering. Be careful not to catch a cold. Do not bathe for one month after neutering.

3. After surgery, the cat needs to wear an Elizabethan ring and surgical gown to prevent the cat from licking the wound, which may lead to wound infection or secondary dehiscence.
