Control of cat overpopulation is up until now has been a lost battle. The search for a cheap, reliable and easily applicable contraceptive covers a wide range of possibilities, but lately, very limited advances have been made. Main objective of drug-mediated fertility control in cats is to prevent reproduction (special concern to overpopulation) and to prevent estrus and male sexual behaviors in owned- cats and ultimately help management of catteries. There are 3 forms of delivery of contraceptive drugs in cats: tablets, injections, and implants. All contraceptive control discussed here is hormone-based, with a wide variation of possible side effects. Currently, there are no contraceptive methods that are 100% effective and each should be considered a temporary solution.
