In animal fancy and animal husbandry , entire or intact indicates an animal has not been desexed, i.e. , spay ed female or castration neutered male . Animals are desexed for selective breeding purposes. Citation needed date December 2008 Males may also be neutered in order to make them more tractable or meatier. A specialized vocabulary has arisen for neutered animals of given species, see more at castration . Except where a desexed pet is desirable, entire animals usually fetch much higher prices than castrated ones, mostly because they retain the ability to breed. There are various health effects of the decision to leave an animal intact, or to castrate it. Leaving a female animal intact may lead to such complications as ovarian cysts, uterine infections such as pyometra , and cancer of the reproductive tract. In small animals such as dogs and cats, the ovaries and uterus are removed eliminating the possibility of disease in these organs. By de sexing or spaying the female, the animal is surgically sterilized and cannot get pregnant this however, may lead to weight gain in the pet and may not be able to burn as many calories in their daily activities. This can be avoided by reducing the food intake once the female has been surgically sterilized to prevent unnecessary weight gain. In addition to a reduced caloric intake, increasing the animals daily physical activity once recovered from surgery will help reduce the chance of weight gain after being de sexed. ref Petplace Veterinarians. n.d. .

Italic title Refimprove date August 2011 Tritrichomonas foetus is a single celled flagellum flagellated protozoa n parasite that is known to be a pathogen of the bovine reproductive tract as well as the intestinal tract of cats. In cattle, the organism is transmitted to the female vagina and uterus from the foreskin of the bull where the parasite is known to reside. It causes infertility, and, at times, has caused spontaneous abortions in the first trimester. Cases of infection in cattle have declined due to the use of artificial insemination . In the last ten years, there have been reports of Tritrichomonas foetus in the feces of young cats that have diarrhea and live in households with multiple cats. Description Tritrichomonas foetus in the genus Tritrichomonas within the order Trichomonadida in the Kingdom Protoctista . The parasite is 5 25  m in size and is spindle shaped with four flagella which are whiplike projections and an undulating or wavy membrane. Their movement is jerky and in a forward direction, and they also do barrel rolls . The organisms look like small tadpoles with small tails when viewed microscopically. The parasite interacts with bacteria that normally reside in the intestinal tract by adhering to the intestinal epithelium of the host. Clinical signs Bulls do not show any clinical signs of infections and can infect females at mating. In cows, there may be infertility, embryonic death and abortion, and reproductive tract infections such as pyometra . ref name WikiVet http en.wikivet.net Tritrichomonas foetus Tritrichomonas foetus reviewed and published by WikiVet , accessed 10 October 2011. ref ref name WikiVet2 http en.wikivet.net Trichomonosis Cattle Trichomonosis Cattle reviewed and published by WikiVet , accessed 10 October 2011. ref In cats, Tritrichomonas foetus is characterized by diarrhea that comes and goes and may contain blood and mucus at times.
