Okay, perhaps the idea of spaying your pet isn't particularly a cheerful notion, but in fact, it is the number one most important thing you can do to help, not only your cat or dag live a better, longer, life, but it will help reduce the number of animals who are needlessly KILLED every year due to overcrowding in shelters.
If you want your kids to know about the cycle of life by seeing your cat or dog have a litter, then become a FOSTER family to kittens or puppies who are already born! Most, if not, all rescue groups need volunteers to help socialize, feed and love young animals and their Mom's while they're still to young to be adopted. Some of the offspring will be only a mere few days old. Speaking from experience, it is an amazing journey to watch these creatures grow and thrive and an honor to be part of their lives until they go to their forever homes.
Please, for the sake of all those suffering animals on death row at shelters, get your cat or dog spayed. If you can't afford it, there are MANY programs available to help offset costs across the country. It shouldn't be a burden to your wallet and the money you'll save in excess vet bills from having intact animals will surely be worth it.
Happy Spay Day!
