Why Pets Gain Weight After Spaying or Neutering
An intact cat's base metabolic rate is about 30 percent higher than a neutered cat's, so the same food leads to faster weight gain after the procedure. Obesity raises the risk of heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, arthritis, fatty liver, and more. The fix is diet and exercise: feed timed, smaller, high-protein low-fat meals, drop the treats, and keep moving, with low-impact activity like swimming for joint-prone breeds.
