Background
Therefore, female cats and dogs would not have to go through regular pregnancy and labour - only to lose their children. As a result of breeding, most shelters are overpopulated, and even healthy cats and dogs are regularly euthanised - if they are not adopted, due to a lack of space, resources or money.
