For the past seven years Animal Aid in conjunction with Spay Day USA offers a month of spay and neuter specials. From Valentine's Day to St. Patrick's Day participating clinics offer to spay female cats for $15 and neuter male cats for $10. We decided to participate this year - our first opportunity.  

Melissa, Daniela and Katie arranged the whole project - I was just a volunteer. We decided we would offer a day of neuters for the project and pledged to neuter 20 cats. We thought a Monday would be best since we would be closed and we all came in to make it happen. I have to tell you how proud I am of our entire staff for organizing every detail of this project and making it a success all on a volunteer basis. We even had extra volunteers come in to help out including Dr. Krissy Bussmann who will soon be coming on board as our second doctor!

We ended up neutering  18 males and spaying one female. We were working so hard we forgot to take pictures - sorry about that! It was a fun day seeing all of these kitties come through and we really shined in the appreciation of the families bringing in their beloved pets. We were so happy to be able to help! The proceeds from the day are going to Cat Adoption Team and the Feral Cat Coalition of Oregon to continue to help in the spaying and neutering of more cats in need.
