I have two cats that live outdoors and are having babies at an enormous rate.Can I have them fixed?

Call your vet. They can answer all your questions and more. Some areas neuter feral cats because it keeps the rodent population down, and apparently it produces competition between cats for food. In the long run it reduces kittens.

Maybe you should have gotten your cats neutered/spayed when you bought them. Do you realize the sickening amount of animals, specifically cats being euthanized due to this very problem?

What exactly, have you done with these babies once they were born? (assuming that they have already had babies)

Yes, please get them both done as soon as possible, there are already far too many cats in this world without a home for irresponsible cat owners to just let them breed like… well cats.

Please please please get them done. It doesn’t cost the earth, £100 at most for both of them.

This boy of ours was rescued from the streets by the good people of the RSPCA, can you imagine the miserable life he must have had for the first 3 years, he was skinny as a bean pole when they found him.

Please, please get them spayed! Also have them vaccinated for feline leukemia (after testing).

Spay and neuter them as soon as you can. The life of a feral cat is not a happy one and you’re just adding to the problem if you do nothing about it. I used to work in a shelter and it’s sickening just how many unwanted pets there are – most of this would be alleviated if people just spayed and neutered their pet. If money is an issue, most towns have a low-cost or even free spay/neuter program for those in financial difficulty. Just do a google search or contact your local shelter for more information.

How can you not have gotten them spayed by now?

Please do! I used to round up all the feral cats in my area and get them fixed. It helped them to have less fights, and they weren’t having babies that were going to be neglected or get sick.

Yes, get it done.

I just showed this question to my wife, her response was perfect. “You shouldn’t have cats if you don’t know the answer to that question”

These are cats that I happened upon and started feeding. They stayed around and I guess I adopted them. I get their kittens homes but it’s becoming a lot to handle.

I used to feed stray cats. It got out of hand also, as it will when there is an unnatural food source in the area (you: word gets around). I had to trap them through Forgotten Felines and either one of their volunteers or I would take them to vet for spaying and vaccinations, and then they’d be released back to my yard. You will have hundreds of kittens very soon if you don’t act quickly. If each of those kittens has two litters per year, do the math.
