Just like children, the animals in our community will be depending on us more than ever, if a disaster occurs. They ask so little and give us so much so please don’t leave it up to chance. Prepare now, spread the word and try to donate a few hours per month by volunteering with your local DART team chapter or animal shelter. During a Florida disaster we will make every attempt to provide a status update as quickly as possible, but may be limited by the disaster in our area or the timeliness of information from other areas.

Fix Fluffy for Half Price Offer Extended! (Fort Lauderdale area)

In an effort to prevent the births of potentially thousands of unwanted kittens the Humane Society of Broward County offered half price spays and neuters for kittens between the ages of 8 – 16 weeks during the month of May. Just two

weeks into the month more than 90 surgeries have been scheduled or performed for kittens. Due to the huge response the half price spay/neuter offer for kittens will be extended until the end of August.

Prices are normally $40.00 for females and $25.00 for males but if you schedule your kitten for an appointment the cost will be just $20.00 for females and $12.50 for males. Vaccinations will also be available for an additional fee.

To schedule an appointment call 954-463-7729.
