To surgically remove the ovaries, and usually the uterus, of a female animal to prevent breeding.
We usually spay the bitch once she has finished growing, and I talked the owner through the procedure.
Rarity runs from 0 (a word everyone knows) to 100 (almost never seen outside specialist or literary writing). Level is the word's real difficulty on the CEFR scale, from A1 to C2.
