A Study on Pet Owners' Attitudes Toward Pet Sterilization

Abstract: This research aims to investigate pet owners’ attitudes toward pet sterilization and the factors influencing their decisions. Data were collected from 150 respondents who owned at least one pet. Descriptive statistics and Chi-square tests were used to analyze relationships between education level, pet ownership experience, and income with attitudes toward sterilization. The findings indicate that most respondents hold positive attitudes toward sterilization, recognizing its importance in reducing stray populations and improving animal welfare. Educational level and experience showed a significant relationship with attitude (p < 0.05), whereas income did not. These findings highlight the role of education and experience in shaping responsible pet ownership and support the promotion of sterilization awareness campaigns.
