Please get your pets spayed and neutered. Truly no excuse not too. We need you, the owners to be responsible for your pets because animals are in crisis. It starts with you, the owner! You can prevent mass euthanasia and needless death of our pets.
🐾 Please Don’t Litter, Spay/Neuter Your Critters!! 🐾
Our Surgery Center is a Private non-profit Spay/Neuter facility. Primarily focused on the over population of stray cats in our Community, helping our 501c3 rescue partners AND we help Low Income Pet Owners!
There are two programs that we accept, significantly reducing costs for Low Income Pet Owners, allowing them to do their part to reduce the over population of unwanted animals.
🐾 AL Medicaid License plate program can be used for 2 pets each year. Anyone in the household that receives Medicaid is eligible.
🐾 Baldwin Co Animal Shelter discount vouchers. As a participating clinic, we accept these vouchers for anyone in the household that receives government financial assistance or income below the state median. Must be resident of Baldwin Co. The Vouchers expire in 90 days. Limited to 2 per household.
