Animal Shelter hosts free

feline spay/neuter clinic

The Georgetown Animal Shelter, 110 Walden Drive, will host its third and final free spay/neuter clinic by appointment July 22.

Spay and neuter surgeries and rabies vaccinations will be provided at no charge. Other services available at the clinic include a combo feline AIDS/leukemia test for $20, a FVRCP vaccine for $5, microchip for $10 and e-collar for $10.

Appointments are required for the free clinics, which are offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Cats or kittens must be at least 3 months old. The clinic is offered only for cats whose owners live in the city limits of Georgetown.

The goal of the clinics is to reduce the cat population in Georgetown. This is the seventh year that the shelter has offered free spay/neuter clinics for cats to help manage overpopulation.
