Feb. 12, 2014: In honor of World Spay Day, the Animal Shelter Alliance of Portland (ASAP) boldly sets out to alter 500 cats in one week. ASAP offers 500 free spay/neuter surgeries the week of February 24 in five locations around the Portland/Vancouver metro area.
World Spay Day is an annual occurrence that aims to highlight spay/neuter as a proven means of ending pet overpopulation and is part of a global, united effort to end the euthanasia and suffering of companion animals.
Qualifying cat owners (see How to Qualify below) can have their unsterilized cats or kittens spayed or neutered for free throughout the week. Caretakers of stray or feral cats can take advantage of this offer as well. Surgeries are performed by licensed veterinarians and subsidized through charitable donations.
To make an appointment, call 1-800-345-SPAY for a cat you own or (503) 797-2606 for feral cats.
