We’re Fixin’ to Fix Animals!

Cool—a task force of 22 vets was convened by the Association of Shelter Veterinarians to create guidelines for spay-neuter programs nationwide. (Isn’t it nice when we all work together toward a common goal?) On the task force was our very own Dr. Kathleen Makolinski, ASPCA Director of Veterinary Outreach.

We’re thrilled to have helped set these guidelines. Says our ASPCA prez and CEO, Ed Sayres, “We endorse the guidelines document as a means to ensure the welfare of individual animals when they undergo sterilization procedures, regardless of where such surgeries occur.” Read on for more information about the guidelines and where they can be found.

Setting the bar for spay-neuter programs is a milestone in the animal welfare industry! Wahoo!


	If you want to get your pet spayed/neutered, but are short on cash, use our database to find a cheap—or free!—location in your area.

Greetings! I know this is kinda off topic but I'd figured I'd ask. Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest writing a blog post or vice-versa? My site goes over a lot of the same topics as yours and I believe we could greatly benefit from each other. If you are interested feel free to shoot me an email. I look forward to hearing from you!

I think some people are mnsiisg the point licensing pets is not a new requirement, nor is the subject proposing increasing the fee. Williams' point is that if more people licensed their pets as they are already required to, the revenue collected by the city would go up.It's like if some people in town didn't pay their property taxes when they finally do write a check as they are supposed to all along the revenue that the city gets goes up.
