Spay/neuter . . .

Spay/neuter your pet!
 
Each year thousands of adoptable pets are destroyed because there simply are not enough good homes for all of them. Having your animal spayed or neutered is the most loving thing you can do for companion animals in our area.

Why not donate?
 
We also need your donations to help stem the flow of abused, neglected, and unwanted animals making their way into area shelters. By reducing animal populations, we can not only reduce unwanted animals on our streets, but actually reduce costs associated with animal control and welfare. Did you know that each $1 spent on spay/neuter programs returns at least $5 in animal control savings? It's good for the animals. It's good for the city.
