WHAT: Palm Sunday Rabies Drive

WHEN: Palm Sunday, April 2nd, 2023 at 1-5 p.m.

WHERE: 7 Fire Department locations in Orleans Parish
• Engine 21 – 3940 Paris Ave.
• Engine 16 – 2000 Martin Luther King Jr Blvd.
• Engine 17 – 4115 Woodland Dr.
• Engine 25 – 2430 S. Carrollton Ave.
• Engine 35 – 964 N. Carrollton Ave.
• Engine 36 – 5403 Read Blvd.
• Engine 39 – 5600 Claiborne Ave.

WHY: Once a rabies infection is established, there's no effective treatment. Rabies vaccinations are required by law in Orleans Parish with a tag evidencing the collar or harness of the cat or dog. Essentially, it is important to keep your pets protected.

HOW much?: $15 Cash only. For only $15, Orleans Parish residents will receive a rabies vaccination, tag, and license good for 1 year only. Out-of-parish residents are welcome but will only receive the rabies vaccine and will need to get the tag and license from their parish’s shelter.

*Please note that all dogs MUST be on a leash and all cats MUST be in a carrier or on a leash and this event is CASH ONLY. Hosting this event are the Louisiana SPCA, Southeast Louisiana Veterinary Association - SLVA, and the City of New Orleans Fire Department. We hope to see you there!
