HSPC launches new spay/neuter assistance program

Monday, June 8, 2015

The Humane Society of Putnam County has announced the launch of a new no-cost spay/neuter assistance program to Putnam County residents and their pets.

This new program provides a free spay/neuter, paid in full by the HSPC, to Putnam County residents looking to fix their pets, and help keep the animal population under control in the county.

This free voucher can be redeemed at SPOT Clinic in Cloverdale and will cover the full cost of a cat or dog spay/neuter for up to two pets per household per year. Pet owners should plan to provide proof of rabies vaccination upon arrival, but for animals not currently vaccinated for rabies, the voucher will also cover the cost of bringing the animal up-to-date on their rabies vaccine, if assistance is needed.

Spay/Neuter vouchers can be picked up at Rescued Treasures (1021 Indianapolis Rd.) on Fridays and Saturdays between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m.

The HSPC Board of Directors has been working actively on raising funds and creating a new spay/neuter assistance program for Putnam County residents. The HSPC has announced that in a soft roll-out of the program, in less than two months, 15 animals in Putnam County have been fixed, and vaccinated for rabies, totaling more than $500 in assistance.

Thanks to the support of groups like the 100 Women Who Care, local donations and fundraisers, and the participants of the HSPC 5K, as well as the support of SPOT clinic, the Humane Society is able to provide this assistance without barriers on program applicants.

  • This is a wonderful idea. Hopefully the right people will take advantage of this free service to get their animals fixed and quit dumping out their puppies and kittens on the rest of us! Thanks.
