Spay/neuter contract
A spay/neuter contract is a legal agreement that obligates the new owner to spay or neuter the pet by a specific age and provide proof of the procedure. These contracts are used to prevent pet overpopulation and often have clauses for what happens if the agreement is breached, which can include returning the animal, forfeiting a deposit, or even legal action.
