Why does Caldwell Humane Society, Inc. focus on spaying and neutering?

On average, 5,000 dogs and cats are euthanized each year in Caldwell County alone….far too many to be adopted. Spaying and neutering is the key to ending pet overpopulation, because it halts the cycle of pets having litters, and their litters having litters, and so on. Without low-cost spay/neuter clinics, many Caldwell County pet owners would simply not be able to afford the cost of spay/neuter surgery for their pets.
