How is the law ridiculous? We have always had our cats fixed at a fairly young age - in particular, we like to have the females spayed right around their first heat (although I honestly cannot remember if it is before or after said heat).

Maybe the issue is that the age is too young (I have to admit that I do not know what the ideal age for the snip is). So maybe the argument is that the AGE aspect of the law is wrong.

I think the law is a step in the right direction. It may not be perfect, but it is better than not having it! The way I look at it, if it makes for even one less dog or cat being euthanized, than I say the law is a good one. No, it is not going to wipe out the problem, but I believe it is a good start.
