Help Us Fight Pet Overpopulation |
|
|
|
The Larimer Humane Society (LHS) and Fort Collins Cat Rescue (FCCR) are teaming up to try and reduce the pet overpopulation problem in northern Colorado. LHS will be offering a free spay voucher, provided by FCCR, to anyone who surrenders a litter of unwanted pets. This voucher is for a free spay surgery at Fort Collins Spay/Neuter Clinic, a part of FCCR’s agency.
The voucher can only be used for the mother animal of the surrendered kittens or puppies.
Additional vaccines, testing, or pain medication are to be paid in full by the owner of the animal. If proof of a current rabies vaccination is not available the animal will be required to have a rabies vaccination given on the day of surgery for $12.
An appointment must be made with Fort Collins Spay/Neuter Clinic before taking the animal in for surgery and the voucher must be presented on the day of surgery. The Clinic is located at 2321 East Mulberry #9 in Fort Collins. Office hours are Tues, Thurs, and Sat 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Mon, Wed, and Fri 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Surgery days are Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
For more information contact the Fort Collins Spay/Neuter Clinic at 970-484-1861, www.fortcollinscatrescue.org or the Larimer Humane Society at 970-226-3647.
To make a donation to benefit this program contact the Spay/Neuter Clinic and ask to make a donation to the P.A.L. program (Prevent a Litter).

Read about S.N.I.P., Larimer Humane Society's spay/neuter assistance program .
Sterilizing
your pet is the single most important thing you can do to reduce the
number of homeless animals in our community. All dogs, puppies, cats, kittens and rabbits adopted from
the Larimer Humane Society are spayed or neutered before going into his
or her new home. There is no time limit on our adoptable animals; they
stay in our care until they find a home. However, although we can
increase our adoptions, we also need to reduce the number of surplus
animals born each year. At the Larimer Humane Society we strive to find
homes, increase our resources through community support, and educate
the public on the importance of spay/neuter. We encourage every single
animal guardian to sterilize their companion animal and join in our
efforts to ensure no animal is left without a home. In 2007, LHS performed 1,732 spay/neuter surgeries and an additional 346 animals were spayed and neutered through our partnership with CSU Veterinary Teaching Hospital.
