Municipalities in Florida and throughout the United States are battling dog and cat overpopulation issues that impact local government policy and budgets. Dogs and cats are reproducing at an exponential rate that outstrips the number of people who can provide homes for them. According to some experts’ projections, just one unaltered dog and her progeny can produce an estimated 67,000 puppies in a six-year period. A single fertile cat and her offspring can spawn approximately 420,000 kittens in seven years.
