Celebs Speak Out to End Animal Homelessness—Spay/Neuter Today!
On any given day in the United States, there are an estimated 70 million homeless dogs and cats struggling to survive. They are a result of people’s failure to spay and neuter their animal companions, allowing them to bring more animals into a world that already has more dogs and cats than there are loving homes for them.
The single most important thing that we can do to save cats and dogs from the suffering and death caused by overpopulation is to get our animal companions “fixed.”
Every February on the last Tuesday of the month, World Spay Day celebrates the importance of animal birth control and encourages all guardians of dogs and cats to have them spayed or neutered.
In honor of World Spay Day—and all of February, which is National Spay/Neuter Awareness Month—we’ve rounded up some of our favorite celebrity campaigns promoting animal birth control. Check out which stars have spoken up to spread this important message:
Dr. Drew
Sia
George Lopez
Jesse & Joy
Aislinn Derbez
Marc Maron
Cloris Leachman
