Spay Neuter Month at Humane Society
The Humane Society of Santa Clara Valley's Spay Neuter Month Appointment Line is up and running. Pet owners can call 408.727.3383, ext. 763, to schedule neutering and spay surgery in February.
"Spaying and neutering helps stop pet overpopulation, prevents certain types of reproductive cancers from developing and your pet will be less likely to wander away from home in search of a mate," said Leslie Baikie-Khavari, Humane Society spokeswoman.
Surgeries are being offered during February at half the society's price, $15 for a cat neuter; $28 for a cat spay, and $28 to $60 for dogs, depending on their gender and weight.
The non-profit society, 2530 Lafayette St. Santa Clara, is the largest animal shelter on the West Coast. It cared for about 28,000 animals last year; and 91 percent of the animals placed for adoption find new homes.
