Animals across Hays County are getting special attention this month. Through July 22, Pet Prevent a Litter (PALS) is joining with the San Marcos Regional Animal Shelter and Adoption Center to offer Hays County residents free pet spay and neutering options. This process is a safe surgical procedure which provides significant health benefits to your pet:
• Prevents pregnancy and its complications.
• Eliminates the heat cycle.
• Reduces the urge to roam.
• Reduces the possibility of disease in the reproductive system.
• Eliminates testicular tumors and reduces prostate gland problems.
• In cats, reduces territorial marking behavior.
Hays County continues to experience a serious pet overpopulation problem and reducing the number animals is critical to saving lives. Contact PALS at 754-PALS or [email protected] to schedule an appointment for your pet.
On Friday, July 15, PAWS Shelter and Humane Society is hosting a 25th Anniversary Open House and Adopt-a-thon Weekend which begins with a ribbon cutting ceremony by the Kyle Chamber of Commerce at 4:30 p.m with refreshments following.
