The Pawprints on the Heartland’s low-cost spay/neuter van will be operating in GALENA on TUESDAY, MARCH 8th.
The fee for the spay/neuter surgery for cats and small dogs is $40.00. Assistance is available for low-income, disabled, and elderly.
All pets must be at least three months old and, on a leash, or in a carrier. Appointments are necessary and can be made by calling 620-232-0907 on Monday, Wednesday, or Friday between 8:00 am and 1:00 pm.
Only 25 slots are open and will be filled on first call basis.
To date, over approximately 90,000 pets have been spayed/neutered with this program preventing the birth of millions of homeless animals.
Pawprints is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping control the overpopulation of animals. Each year thousands of pets in southeast Kansas must be put to death simply because there are not enough homes for them. Pawprints’ motto is “PREVENTION, NOT DESTRUCTION”.
If you would like to sponsor a spay/neuter for a disadvantaged animal, send your $40.00 donation to PAWPRINTS, P.O. Box 644, Pittsburg, KS 66762
