* '''Enforced''':

to:

to:

** Neutering becomes a form of animal cruelty after proof exists of animals fearing it, no matter how painless the methods are.
** Furthermore, it's also proof of [[SapientPet sapient pets]][[note]]what this trope needs to work[[/note]], bringing even more questions and matters in regards.
** Neutered animals, and allies of them, take revenge on anyone responsible for the damage, maybe by "fixing" humans to make them share their woes.



** Neutering is instead acceptable if they already have children.
** ...but if they're sapient, why can't they control being AxCrazy while in heat? If anything, therapy could help them.
** ...but the animals are too weak/incompetent to do anything about it, and prefer to just live.

to:

* '''Played for Horror''':Horror''': In this universe, neutering is very messy, so it'd make sense for them to fear the BodyHorror as a consequence of the operation.
