Fur Kids Foundation HOsts Spay Day Event
January 23, 2013—Gillette, WY—In honor of World Spay Day, the Fur Kids Foundation, with support from Animal Medical Center of Wyoming, hosts a Spay Day Drawing on February 26 at noon at Animal Medical Center, 200 E. Lakeway Rd.
According to the ASPCA, a fertile cat can have two litters a year, with around four to six kittens in each litter. The organization also reports that the average dog has one litter a year, producing an average of four to six puppies per litter.
“The 2011 City Animal Control Report states that nearly 1,300 animals were euthanized in the local Animal Shelter. Many times, the animals in shelters are the offspring of family pets,” says Sheryl Martin, Fur Kids Foundation president. “Fur Kids Foundation wants to educate pet owners on the healthy benefits of spaying or neutering their pets, which could also help reduce the number of animals that are euthanized in our local shelter.”
While spaying and neutering is a proven way to reduce pet overpopulation, the procedures also help to keep cherished family pets healthy. Spaying your female cat or dog helps prevent uterine infections and cancers, as well as breast cancer. Neutering a male pet helps prevents testicular cancer as well as helps to improve some behavior issues such as reducing their probability for roaming or fighting, and urine-marking in inappropriate places.
Those interested in spaying or neutering their dog or cat can enter to win one free procedure from February 1-25 at Animal Medical Center. Only one registration per pet, per owner is available. The winners will be announced at noon on February 26 at Animal Medical Center—need not be present to win. Winners will schedule their pet’s operation to be done at Animal Medical Center on a separate day.
“On behalf of the Fur Kids Foundation, we are thankful for the generous donation of four free procedures from Animal Medical Center of Wyoming,” says Sheryl Martin. “We appreciate Animal Medical Center’s dedication and commitment to the families and pets in, and around, Campbell County.”
Fur Kids Foundation’s Spay Day Drawing is also posted on the Humane Society of the United States World Spay Day calendar. Tomorrow’s count is up to you. Please spay and neuter your pets.
