How do you feel about mandatory spaying and neutering laws?

"I am a supporter of mandatory spaying and neutering laws for certain animals. The United States has a tremendous pet overpopulation. This overpopulation results in millions of healthy animals being euthanized yearly because there are not enough homes for them. Spaying and neutering animals like cats and dogs prevent more litters of homeless pets. I understand that Missouri state law requires that all dogs and cats adopted from an animal shelter be spayed or neutered. I understand and entirely agree with the logic behind this law. My passion is to care for and protect the animals we have now, and I will proudly continue supporting this mission when practicing veterinary care."
