		<description>&lt;a href="http://www.neuticles.com"&gt;Sometimes you feel like a nut....&lt;/a&gt; or at least your pet&apos;s do. Has your pet&apos;s lost his manhood through being neutered? Give him a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.neuticles.com/webpages/cost.html&quot;&gt;ball&lt;/a&gt; he doesn&apos;t have to play fetch with.</description>

		<description>&quot;A pet neutered with Neuticles does not know he&apos;s been altered because he feels and looks exactly the same.&quot;

but then

&quot;About 30 days after neutering the testosterone in the pets system is gone. The pet becomes calmer. less aggressive and quits &apos;roaming&apos;. Pet owners neutering with Neuticles benefit from having a fully altered pet-and looks exactly the same!&quot;

So actually, the pet himself doesn&apos;t feel the same, as all testosterone in his system is gone. The idea of &quot;feeling the same&quot; must apply to how neuticals feel to pet owners who are in the habit of fondling their pet&apos;s packages.

Nothing like subjecting you beloved pet to additional operation and risk just because you wouldn&apos;t want your nuts removed.</description>

		<description>Perhaps we ought to make inquiries of those directly affected.  I decided to ask the opinion of my neutered cat, Disraeli, who I fear is decidedly un-macho (&quot;this cat is a wimp,&quot; comments my vet).  As usual, my attempt to have a rational conversation with one of my resident felines went nowhere.  However, basic feline psychoanalysis would seem to reveal a cat perfectly well-adjusted without his, um, accoutrements.  Whether giving him literal balls would generate figurative balls--he is thoroughly cowed by Victoria, his female littermate--or not is an open question.  As Victoria ruled the roost when he had balls, however, I somehow doubt that providing him with new ones would solve anything.  

I must confess that the thought of dating a person who felt the need to provide a pet with artificial balls is, well, worrisome.

		<description>If you own a dog, and the presence or absence of your dog&apos;s balls means something in &lt;i&gt;your&lt;/i&gt; life, I think it&apos;s time to re-evalutate your life&apos;s priorities.

Why would anyone do such a thing? 

So their dog looks &quot;manly&quot; and the boys down at the shootin&apos; range and fishin&apos; hole don&apos;t make fun of ol&apos; skeeter?</description>

What?  You&apos;re participating in a pointless discussion using a computer worth (at least) several hundred dollars on an internet connection worth a few tens of dollars a month and electricity which is consuming what little fossil fuels we have left on this planet, probably sitting in a chair more comfortable than a rock at a desk made out of plastic (petroleum) or wood (trees) in a climate-controlled (okay, I&apos;m guessing) room while billions of people live in total poverty in the third world.  I barf at this kind of nonsense.</description>
