Spay, Neuter Program For Low Income Pet Owners
February 19, 2009
Throughout the month of February, Concerned Citizens for Animal Welfare, a local animal welfare organization, will pay for half the cost of spay or neuter procedures for eligible low income pet owners during “Spay and Neuter Month” at the Escambia County Animal Shelter.
“We’ve sponsored spay and neuter programs since 1988,” said Dorothy Kaser of Concerned Citizens for Animal Welfare. “It’s very important that we do everything possible to reduce the number of unwanted animals being born.”
“The spay and neuter assistance program is available to qualified citizens year-round, but providing these services at half price during Spay and Neuter Month is a huge benefit, not just to the low income pet owner, but – in the long run – to all residents of Escambia County,” said Animal Shelter Manager Candace Stordahl.
For information on low cost spay and neuter services, call the Escambia County Animal Shelter at 595-3075 or visit the shelter at 200 West Fairfield Drive in Pensacola, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Saturday.
