Over-population of cats and dogs causes pain and suffering because there just aren't enough homes for all of them. Financial limitations, especially in today's economy, prohibit many pet owners from having their pet spayed or neutered. LET THE SHELTER SPAY/NEUTER CLINIC HELP. The clinic will spay or neuter cats belonging to low-income cat owners for just $45.00.

WHY SPAY OR NEUTER YOUR CAT?

Your cat will roam less, fight less and be more focused on his or her human family.
Your cat will live a longer, healthier life.
Your male cat will no longer spray.
Your female cat will no longer go in and out of heat or give birth to unwanted kittens.
Your cat will NOT become fat and lazy. Only too much food and a lack of exercise will cause your pet to become obese.
You will help shelter cats who need homes by not bringing any more unwanted cats into the world.
Responsible pet ownership includes teaching your children about the terrible cat over-population problem.

IT IS THE HUMANE THING TO DO!!
