>>Spaying and Neutering Saves Lives!
Spaying and neutering truly saves lives! By spaying and neutering cats, we can reduce overpopulation in free-roaming cat
colonies and lower euthanasia rates at shelters.
Too many animals are losing
their lives at animal control agencies throughout the South Bay. It's a terrible tragedy that does not have to exist.
We can all do something about it, by spaying and neutering our pets and by helping neighborhoods
organize trap-neuter-return (TNR) programs.
There are low-cost options for spaying and neutering available throughout Southern California. spcaLA (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals - Los Angeles)
is having a very special
"Beat the Heat" program for the month of February. They are offering $20 female cat spays at spcaLA’s Specialty Spay/Neuter Center. Funding and space is limited, so please schedule your appointment now by
calling the spcaLA at (323) 730-5303.
Another option is the Spay Neuter Project of Los Angeles (formerly known as
Clinico), a non-profit veterinary clinic with locations in San Pedro, Pico Rivera and Van Nuys that offers
discounted rates for low-income households. Also, Spay Neuter Project of Los Angeles has a special program called the Big Meow, offering free spay and neuter services for
outdoor/free-roaming cats.
More information is available at its website, www.snpla.org.
Recently, the Associated Press reported that fewer pets are being killed because of spay
and neuter programs.
