1. Overpopulation Control

One of the primary reasons for cat sterilization is to control the population of stray and feral cats. Cats are prolific breeders, and an uncontrolled population can lead to overcrowding in shelters and an increase in the number of homeless and suffering cats.
Sterilization helps prevent unwanted litters and reduces the burden on animal shelters and rescue organizations.
2. Health Benefits
Neutering offers various health benefits to cats. For female cats, spaying reduces the risk of uterine infections and mammary tumors, which are often malignant.
Neutering male cats reduces the likelihood of testicular cancer and can also reduce the risk of certain behavioral issues, such as aggression and roaming in search of mates.
Additionally, sterilization can reduce the chances of cats contracting certain infectious diseases, as mating and fighting can expose them to various health risks.

3. Reduces Risk of Roaming
When female cats go into heat, both her hormones and instincts are urging her to find a mate. And if she's your only cat, she'll try to escape every time you open the door so that she can find one.
Remember that males are also driven by hormones and the mating instinct, and will try their best to escape for the same reason. Both males and females are at risk outdoors of being injured as they cross roads and highways to mate.
By neutering your cat, you'll reduce this wanderlust and find they're happy to stay put in the safe, comfy spot next to you on the couch.
