2023 Have A Heart Spay/Neuter Program

Valley Save-A-Pet opened its 2023 Have A Heart low cost spay/neuter program on March 1. This program offers cat and dog sterilizations at a discounted rate to pet owners.

Call (440) 232-2287 (CATS) any Monday or Wednesday or the first Saturday of each month between the hours of 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. for more information and to apply for a spay/neuter certificate. Modest additional charges are required for any pet not current on vaccinations and large dogs whose weight might require additional fees. Feral cat caregivers are also encouraged to call.

With the cooperation of local veterinarians Valley Save-A-Pet has been able to offer this vital service to pet owners for over 40 years. The support of veterinarians has been vital to the success of the Have A Heart program and has helped reduce cat and dog overpopulation. Pet owners and feral cat caregivers are urged to take advantage of the reduced fee being offered.

For information: (440) 232-2287 (CATS)

Hours: Monday, Wednesday and the first Saturday of each month between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.
