SPAY DAY 2010
Save the Animals Rescue Team
together with
Rutherford Animal Hospital
SAVE LIVES
Another amazing day, Sunday April 11 was a great day for S.T.A.R.T. and Rutherford Animal Hospital, our 2nd Annual Spay Day was a huge success. For the second year, together we accomplished our goal of altering 100 feral cats. Our volunteers, together with the Rutherford Animal Hospital, altered 102 feral cats from local feral cat colonies. Doctors, vet technicians and staff at Rutherford Animal Hospital generously donated their time and facilities to help with our mutual concerns and efforts of reducing the overpopulation of Feral Cats in our community.
Low cost appointments were offered at $35 per cat, for feral cats only. Cats were altered, ear tipped (see picture) , Frontlined and received shots, both distemper and rabies. Caretakers of colonies trapped and recovered the animals after surgery. This was a great opportunity for everyone, S.T.A.R.T., Rutherford Animal Hospital and local communities to help reduce the Feral Population!!
Thanks to all that spent their day off working at the hospital to make sure things ran smoothly and the cats came out of surgery without any problems.
Please be reminded if you feed them, you need to fix them!! Trap, Neuter and Return is the only proven way to reduce the population and help to end the starvation and suffering of feral cats
