PITOU BLYTHE November near Recolle Animal Shelter

Pay attention Recolle! As the weather gets colder, it's time to build some winter cat shelters! If you're interested, show up at the Central Recolle Animal Shelter next Saturday @ 10:00. We will provide you with materials, instructions, locations, coffee, and pizza at the end. Show the hell up! It's good work so that more cats survive the winter safely.

A mingle log to go along with this, please enjoy!

Very interesting; I presume it must work differently than it does in humans, then. Perhaps I will have to pick up a copy when I am next there.

Oh good. There's actually some similarities in the effects birth control on humans, various forms have positive preventative statistics against cancer. In short, if the reproductive system isn't actively being used for reproduction the hormone floods can be damaging and it's in the body's best interest to mitigate it.

Hormonal birth control is a far cry from castration, however. You still have the reproductive hormones necessary to prevent the negative health consequences of removing them.

[ she's no medical expert, but she's never heard of anyone recommending artificial menopause for health benefit reasons... at least, not for a typical woman, anyway. ]

It is, although human reluctance for voluntary removal has more to do with social standards than medical ones. That's a whole different topic, my only real point was that hormonal birth controls can also help prevent some forms of cancer in humans.

[ She's now a little skeptical that that castration is actually associated with reduced cancer risk, given the fact that the other seems unaware of the health risks associated with menopause itself... but she'll keep the remainder of her misgivings to herself for now. ]

Well then, we can agree on the hormonal aspect being of benefit, at least.
