Hi, I have two male cats and can't afford to take them to the vet to get nutered. Does anyone know of a safe way to nuter them yourself?
One of the cats is an outside barn cat and the other one is about three months old and is in the house. I know the three month old will start spraying and I don't want that! Also, I don't want thenm wandering off to find females to have more kittens. Thank you for any information. I tried the animal shelter and human society, but all they have is a reduced spay and nuter program..forty five dollars
for males and sixty five for females. Any information would be helpful, and please no sarcastic or stupid answers, this is a legit question.

You are lucky that the cats are male. This means that you can wait until you can save up the cash needed. If money is so tight that you can't save $5 a week until you have enough to get it done properly then you need to give the cats away or sell them. Whatever you do, DO NOT TRY THIS YOURSELF. The cats will end up dying a very painfull death and you sound like you care about them or you wouldn't be asking the question. You obviously know that this is not a good idea or you wouldn't have asked. Try and save some money, call around some places will be cheaper than others or you will have to get rid of the cats. DO NOT DUMP THEM!!! Wild cats are pests. Alternately you could just put up with the spraying and as your Question makes it sound like you don't live in a suburban area how many other Female cats are around for your cats to impregnate.
Please don't do this yourself and try to save the money to get it done professionally.
Cats are worth a little sacrifice save a few dollars here and there you will get there eventually.

Who is that this 'each person' pronouncing to get him a female friend? That's an extraordinarily dangerous proposal. Get him neutered asap. Now not simplest is it higher for you and it is going to stop him getting another cat pregnant, however it's higher for him to! It will make him calmer and do away with his sex force. It is going to make him extra kitten like and is throughout a good factor. I have no idea concerning the nail protectors, however you could clip his claws. Just be certain to not cut too deep or splinter the nail. Most effective reduce the very very finish of the nail.

They say there are no dumb questions, only dumb answers but if there ever was one, this would be close.
Anyway congrats on seeking help and not doing this yourself.
Neutering a cat required anesthesia and some years of training in a vet college. Also they require antibiotics for around three days after the operation.
IN SHORT NO WAY: YOU *WILL* KILL YOUR CATS!!! Go to a local pet society and ask them to neuter them. Bring proof that you cannot afford to neuter them.

post what city you live in and I and others I'm sure will assist you in finding someone to do this - You can't "repeat" can't do this safely at home. Seriously pets are a huge commitment and the spading and neutering won't be the only expense. After considering this, you may want to give them to a vet or a shelter that won't put them down. Believe me I own 2 cats and I spend hundreds at vet visits for just check ups......I love them but they are expensive.....Good luck and if nothing else contact Bob Barker he will help....

No there is no way you can "do it yourself". Start saving your money! You have two or three months to save up for the kitten. It's just a financial reponsibilty you have to take - for their health and the health of your community.
When your barn cat loses an eye or has an abcessed leg will he also be denied medical treatment for something that neutering could have prevented?

NO!!
First of all, your cat is to young, at least five months old is ag ood time to neutur.
Secondly, neuturing requires medicane, surgery, shots, and degree's in not only medical school's, but college as well and experience in animal medical care.
I understand your concern for your cats, and I respect that, but you should try to either let them find mates, keep them home, or try to find the money someone to neutur them profesionally.
I wish you and your cats the best of luck.

That's a good deal from the humane society. This job is best left to the vet. It's quick and simple and the job will be sterile.

NO!!! If you cannot afford private veterinary care, animal shelters and humane societies usually offer those service for a fraction of what ot would cost at a private doctor. I beg you, do not ever attempt to do it yourself!!

No way! Neutering your cats is a surgical deal and I'm more than positive that you aren't experienced with working with animals. 45 dollars isn't too much...better than loosing your cats.
