very good reason to spay/neuter. I can't tell you how many people in my area dont' spay/neuter their cats and it's led to a sad population of strays. I get so upset when I see a cat with a collar and tags on clearly unneutered. Same with some of the dogs I've seen loose around town, unneutered. It's why I love taking in rescue animals (this is my third adoption of an animal) because it's just not fair that people aren't being responsible with their pets and it leads to strays often.
