Pete and Rosanna join ISPA in spay campaign
ENNISKERRY native Rosanna Davison and Bray vet Pete Wedderburn are lending their support to an ISPCA campaign urging people to spay and neuter their pets.
The campaign outlines the positive benefits of neutering pets and encourages owners to talk to their vet today.
‘Each and every one of us can make a difference by being responsible and doing the right thing for our pets by getting them neutered as early as possible,’ said the model and author.
According to Dr Andrew Kelly, CEO of the ISPCA, spaying pets can reduce the risk of cer- tain cancers, curbs behavioural issues and prevents owners ended up with surprise litters of puppies or kittens.
He said that animal shelters are under pressure as a direct result of unwanted dogs and cats.
‘Our centres are consistently full of dogs and cats so its vital pet owners play their part in tackling this issue by spaying or neutering their pets,’ said Dr Kelly.
The ISPCA is also asking people who are thinking about getting a pet to consider adopting a cat or dog from a rescue shelter.
