Spaying and neutering are surgical procedures performed on animals, typically cats and dogs, to prevent them from reproducing. Spaying is the surgical procedure performed on female animals to remove their ovaries and, in most cases, their uterus. The technical term for spaying in females is "ovariohysterectomy”. Neutering refers to the surgical procedure performed on male animals to remove their testicles. The technical term for neutering in males is "castration."

COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact on the spay and neuter market. Increasing lockdown restrictions, suspension of non-essential surgeries, and shortage of trained healthcare professionals in clinics and shelters were some of the major contributors to the decrease in the spay and neutering surgeries during the pandemic. For instance, as per a study published by Frontiers Media S.A in September 2022, a decrease in the total number of surgeries from 1.2 million in 2019 to 1.0 million in 2020 in the U.S. This decline in demand impacted the market growth. However, in the latter half of 2021, there was a surge in pet adoption, resulting in an increased need for spaying and neutering services to control pet populations. This shift in demand created opportunities for clinics to adapt and expand their offerings.

Spay and Neuter Market Trends

The growing awareness about the benefits of spaying and neutering has emerged as a significant driver in the market. As pet owners and animal welfare organizations become more informed about the positive impact of these procedures, there has been a noticeable shift in attitudes towards responsible pet ownership. Spaying and neutering not only prevent unwanted litters, reducing the burden on animal shelters and strays, but they also contribute to the overall health and well-being of pets. Medical research has shown that these procedures can lower the risk of certain cancers and behavioural issues in animals. With an increasing focus on promoting animal welfare and curbing overpopulation, the demand for spaying and neutering services is expected to surge, leading to a thriving market that provides accessible and affordable options to pet owners seeking to do their part in creating a more humane and sustainable society.

Spay and Neuter Market Restraint

The risks associated with spay and neuter surgeries may act a barrier to the overall market growth. While these procedures are commonly performed to control pet overpopulation and prevent certain health issues, they are not without their inherent risks. Surgical complications, anaesthesia-related problems, and post-operative infections are some of the prominent risks that may reduce the adoption of such procedures. Moreover, some pet owners worry about potential changes in their pets' behaviour or long-term health effects following these procedures. As a result, these concerns have led to a certain degree of hesitancy among pet owners, impacting the demand for spay and neuter services, thereby impeding the market growth to some extent.
