Clinic Neuters 125 Animals

The Humane Society of Grove and Grand Lake held a Low Cost Spay and Neuter Clinic on March 25 and 26 at their shelter in Grove. A total of 125 dogs and cats were spayed or neutered.

Lunch for all the volunteers working was provided by Paparazzi’s Italian Restaurant on Saturday and by Arby’s on Sunday. The society would like to thank them for their contribution.

The Humane Society held their first Low Cost Spay and Neuter clinic two years ago in March 2004. Since then they have had nine clinics and neutered a total of 965 dogs and cats.

The next clinic will be held in late May or early June. The exact dates will be announced at a later time.

The Humane Society holds these clinics as a service to the community and to reduce the number of unwanted pets in our area. They derive no income from the low fees charged.
The society is a non-profit organization and relies on donations and fund-raisers for financial support. Items such as laundry soap, bleach, paper towels, cat litter, pet food, old blankets and towels are always needed. Memberships are available and new members are always welcome. There are many opportunities for volunteer work and more volunteers are needed.

There are lots of dogs and cats at the shelter waiting for loving homes. The Humane Society invites you to stop by during office hours and learn more about how you can become a part of the solution to pet overpopulation in Grove. Give them a call at 786-7630. The shelter is open Tuesdays through Saturdays from 10AM to 3PM and is closed on Sundays and Mondays.
