| Re: This is really sad
I personally don't believe it is necessary to alter caged pets if it is possibly going to cause the animal more harm than good. And with good guinea pig vets hard to come by, I would not want to be forced by law to risk my pig's life to surgery done by someone who's not familiar with the inner workings of a cavy. Besides it's not like any of my unaltered female guinea pigs are going to escape from the house one time I open the front door and come home pregnant like a an unaltered female dog or cat might. But there must be some owner education going on so people are aware of the trouble an unwanted, unneeded litter can be. And of course, all the stupid people should not be allowed to have pets. But I digress. |
