From the Chicago Tribune:
Former game show host Bob Barker wants the Chicago City Council to support a cause he famously ended ‘The Price of Right’ with for decades: getting pets spayed and neutered. Chicago is considering a proposal to require all dogs and cats to be spayed or neutered by the time they’re 6 months old. Barker told the council Tuesday the measure would reduce the number of unwanted pets. He says a similar law in Santa Cruz County, California, caused a 60 percent drop in cats and dogs placed in shelters in the following decade. Those against the proposal say animal owners should decide whether to get their pets fixed.
