One year after opening in 2019, the SNYP Clinic restricted our spay neuter services to cats only. \u00a0This decision was made because our space, less than 700 square feet, is too small to accommodate dogs, and because cats present a higher priority in terms of our mission to reduce suffering associated with companion animal overpopulation. \u00a0Feline reproductive potential significantly exceeds that of dogs. \u00a0Compared with dogs, cats breed more frequently and begin breeding younger. Cats produce 2-3 litters yearly and often begin breeding at 16 weeks of age. \u00a0Because of their predatory nocturnal behavior, feral cat populations are able to thrive in all sorts of neighborhoods and grow quickly, often undetected. \u00a0Our mission to reduce the suffering associated with unwanted litters and our spatial constraints have lead us to most efficiently focus our energy and resources on pet, feral and shelter cats.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
