Pet adoption
continued from page 1
adopting a pet from $47 down to
$25. Starting April 3, pet owners
wishing to recover a stray from
Greenhill Humane Society must
either pay to have the pet spayed
or neutered or face a $500 fine to
get the animal back without the
procedure.
Although some might think the
$500 fine is steep, Greenhill’s
charge for a spay or neuter proce
dure can be as low as $100 for a
dog and $50 for a cat. But Broun
sten said it’s in an owner’s best in
terest to have the procedure done
as soon as possible.
“There’s a good health basis for
it,” Brounsten said. “Spayed or
neutered animals don’t roam, don’t
get into fights as often, are less like
ly to be poisoned or hit by a car.
Also, fixed animals become more
affectionate and owner-oriented.”
At VetSmart, a national chain of
veterinarian clinics inside all
PetSmart stores, a typical spay or
neuter procedure can run between
$130 and $145. Lori Murphy, hos
pital director of VetSmart in Eu
gene, said there are three reasons
pet owners should have the proce
dure done right away.
“The biggest reason to get the
procedure is to decrease the chance
of your pet getting cancer,” Murphy
said. “Intact animals have a higher

rate of testicular cancer in males
and uterine cancer in females.”
The second reason, she said, is
to ease the pet overpopulation
problem. And a third is to help
with a lot of behavioral issues.
Although Murphy said that pet
overpopulation is a problem in
Eugene, she said it seems that
every community has a problem
with pet overpopulation.
“I haven’t seen any more prob
lems here than in any other place
I’ve lived,” Murphy said. “I don’t
see a big difference from place to
place, but I’m not on the front line
like they are at Greenhill. ”
Regardless of whether pet over
population is actually a bigger
than-normal problem in Eugene,
the national statistics concerning
unwanted pets are staggering.
Dr. Celeste Moring, a veterinari
an at Eugene’s Westmoreland Ani
mal Hospital, said that nearly 5
million unwanted pets are de
stroyed every year.
To help the overpopulation
problem in Eugene, Moring said
people can also volunteer with the
Feral Cat Foundation, a group that
captures stray cats and performs a
spay or neuter procedure on the
animal before releasing it.
“Talk to someone whose job is
to put these animals to sleep,”
Moring said. “That’s why it’s so
important to have your pet spayed
or neutered.”
