Type: dissertation

Abstract: The aim of this study is to evaluate the behavior of the citizens living in the district of Vargem Grande, in São Paulo, SP, from 2005 to 2008, concerning the care of dogs and cats in its health and welfare aspects.It also aims at evaluating the dynamics of these animal populations and the impact of reproductive control measures and health actions.There is a high level of turnover rate in the canine and feline populations due to very high levels of mortality and birth rates.The population greeted free actions of spay and neuter with mild enthusiasm, but the participation decreased after introduction of a symbolic spay and neuter fee.There was a positive impact on the reduction of the birth rate in the population after the introduction of spay and neuter actions.Therefore, there is the need of following those actions for a longer period of time.
