To help combat pet overpopulation, it is important to spay or neuter pets, choose adoption instead of purchasing a new animal, and to help educate others about pet overpopulation. It is also important to remember that pets are a long-term commitment, so pet owners should be sure they are ready for the responsibility before adopting.
