PostSubject: Why do we neuter?   Fri Oct 22, 2010 6:58 am

I would like to know if there is a medical reason why we neuter gliders. I know the obvious reason are
1) NO BABIES
2) Not knowing the lineage of the gliders
but is there some medical reason why we should. It was a question asked to me and I really could not think of a medical reason why we should neuter.

Neutering decreases scent, decreases hormonal output (which makes for a calmer, more cuddly baby) and is thought to decrease the chances of cancer.
