The lifespan of spayed and neutered cats and dogs is longer than the lifespan of those not. Here are 2 studies published by the humainsosciety.org. 

A University of Georgia study of more than 70,000 animal patients found neutered male dogs live 13.8% longer, and spayed female dogs lived 26.3% longer. The average age of death of intact dogs was 7.9 years versus a significantly older 9.4 years for altered dogs.

Another study, conducted by Banfield Pet Hospitals on a database of 2.2 million dogs and 460,000 cats reflected similar findings, concluding that neutered male dogs lived 18% longer and spayed female dogs lived 23% longer. Spayed female cats in the study lived 39% longer, and neutered male cats lived 62% longer.
