Why it's important to spay and neuter your pets
Pet overpopulation… the facts are simple. There are just too many pets and not enough homes. The overpopulation problem has reached crisis levels, and the Sacramento SPCA is dedicated to helping end this crisis in our community by offering and promoting spaying and neutering. Consider these statistics as to how just one litter can result in hundreds to thousands of unwanted pets:
The Prolific Cat:1st year - 3 litters = 12 offspring2nd year -144 offspring3rd year 1,728 offspring4th year - 10,736 offspring
The Prolific Dog:
1st year - 4 offspring with 2 females
2nd year - 12 offspring
3rd year 36 offspring
5th year - 324 offspring

While others apparently have good experiences with Whimzees dental treats, they seem to be dangerous around my house. I have personally witnessed three dogs, throwing up these treats. What happens is they throw up the white end of the dental treat, and that part splinters layers of sharp pieces when they throw it up. I feel this is very dangerous. I contacted the company and they told me that they felt it was the dogs’ fault for not chewing the bones completely. Please be careful.
