Cat Wakes Up To Discover He’s Missing Some Parts And He’s NOT Happy About It

Imagine the horror when Milo the cat woke up to realize that his man-bits were gone! Milo’ angry and shocked reaction when he woke up after the operation was captured by owner John Reed, who lives in northwest England.
“He looked down and realised they were missing and let out this almighty screech,” Reed told SWNS. “He carried on looking down and staring for ages.” Though it may seem cruel, neutering is the best way to ensure that cats don’t produce any unwanted kittens that would simply become strays.

Poor bubby! Not only will neutering prevent needless suffering and unnecessary deaths of homeless animals. It has important health benefits for male and female animals. Also very important, and indirectly links to health, is the fact that neutered males generally don't wander (or do so far less). This can prevent the heartache of now ever knowing what became of your beloved fur baby. A cat or dog that doesn't wander has far less chance of being hit by a car. Males will be less territorial and therefore far less likely to fight. Fights can cause serious injuries or death. Last but not least, spraying behavior decreases dramatically as hormone levels fall in the first two months post op. If these reasons don't persuade you, there are an even grater number poor direct health benefits.
In a perfect world they would all keep their bits, but this world is far from perfect and kittens ending up in on death row at animal control is a horrible reality. Everything Anne Fuqua says is truth. I took in my mom's cat as a foster till she could get her life on track, she asked me not to neuter him so I didn't (for 1 year), he fought all the time, smelled like piss, got horrible abscesses from the fights-no one wanted to touch him. After a year I had him neutered and told my mom he was officially adopted...no more smelly tom cat, no more fights, no more wandering, no more feral kittens courtesy of him. Spay and Neuter your cats and dogs, seriously it is the lesser of two evils.
Taking responsibility for your pets as you would human children would do the same. End of.
Absolutely! My son had a similar look when he woke up and realized I'd had him neutered. ;P
My very first cat - Rusty - was a stray I found when he was about 3 months old. I wasn't financially stable, so while I did get him his shots & a flea treatment, I put off getting him "fixed" at the time. Things were fine for over a year, until I moved from my bsmnt studio to a main floor apt with more options for him to get out, The first week, he ran out btwn my legs when I opened the door & was gone 2 days - returning dirty, full of fleas, and had clearly been in a fight. I still didn't get it, though, until I came home to the hole he forced in a screen & no cat. 4 days later he returned, with an infected sore on his eye (from the screen), many other fight signs, a crapload of fleas, and a good pound lighter. The new vet bill was over $300, in 1982/83, including treating the infection, fleas, & the spay. That's the last time I tried to "save" money by waiting to fix a cat!!
Although most are health benefits, neutering also has downsides. Males are a lot less prone to urinal tract problems when they are in "natural" state. I'm not sure if this has to do with their spraying behaviour or not.
Vet student here: Neutering BEFORE the first heat actually saves the animal from the pain of multiple potentially life threatening illnesses, such as cancer (uterine, mammary, testicular - yes. Males can have breast cancer.), pyometra (where the uterus gets inflamated and full of puss - extremely painful and needs the removal of the uterus) just to give you guys the most common problems related to hormones. So unless you want to show / breed your pet, it actually is a lot more healthier to spay / castrate. It's also recommended in the case of extreme aggression in the male animal. Sometimes unfortunately it's not something that can be resolved and in the case of say a medium to giant breed dog, it is extremely dangerous. One could argue that the removal of the testicles is still a better option than to potentially be forced to put it down.
I had a cat die from pyometra., and almost lost my dog to it. I'll never let an animal go without being fixed ever again. Just figures since they were both indoor animals no need to spay..Boy was I wrong. I preach fixing your animals now.
I'm so sorry for you! Unfortunately people have the tendency to see the subject of neutering through their own human ideas. Especially men. It's just unfortunate how many animals go through immeasurable pain just because some just can not comprehend. During one of my placements we've had 10 (!!!) cases of pyo in just one week! Unfortunately our code of conduct does not allow me to shove the removed uterus into the owners face. In one of the instances we advised neutering. They didn't want to because that's cruel. Next year they came back with full flung pyometra. We have removed a uterus weighing 5Kg from a 15Kg dog and fought weeks to save her life. All of this could have been prevented by a 1.5 hour long surgery and a 2 cm cut.
Sounds so much nicer when you say neuter than castrate lol we had our cats spayed and neutered but I don't know how my guy would have took it if I was having our boy Castrated hahaha
Neutering BEFORE the first heat prevents the animal from enjoying one of life's reasons to live on this planet. Poor animals.
When animals learn how to take birth control maybe we can avoid this necessary procedure.
Responsible AND funny :)
SIGHS, you know she means the cat's reaction, NOT the concept itself.

Really? I suppose you find female genital mutilation funny as well.
Your compare is bullshit.
