Hi everyone!

Thise who have PRE REGISTERED for our 1st Namaste Spay/Neuter Day should have recieved the following info via email. We are excited about providing spay/neuter surgery, rabies vaccination and microchips for FREE! This event is sponsored by a generous grant from the Jason Heigl Foundation's Namaste Initiative. Our goal is to spay/neuter 100 animals at no charge on Saturday 11/29 at the Goodwill/Dollar Tree shopping plaza in Center TX. After the first 100 animals, the remaining animals we can fit in that day will receive the same services for $25.
This event is FIRST COME FIRST SERVE for those who have already pre-registered and are therefore receiving this email. Please save this email as proof you have registered in case of any issues at check in. We will do our best to accommodate as many animals as we can but we are limited by space so please understand if we are unable to spay/neuter your pet the day of this event. Those clients who do not make it into our event will be issued $25 vouchers to be used at Dehart Vet Services at a future date that will need to be scheduled directly with them on dehartvetservices.com.
Check in for this event will begin at 745am! Limit is two pets per person. Again this is a FIRST COME FIRST SERVE EVENT. Some pets may need to be skipped if they can not be accomodated (i.e. large dogs or cats in oversized kennels) if space is no longer available. Every effort will be made to fit in pets before they are skipped so your understanding is appreciated.
Please withhold food after midnight the night before but you may provide water. Please bring a rabies certificate if CURRENT. If not current a rabies vaccination for all age appropriate pets which is REQUIRED. A microchip if not already present is REQUIRED for all pets. Cats MUST come in a small hard sided carrier lined with something absorbent. Soft carriers and oversized carriers can not be allowed at this event!
Check out times will vary based on species and gender. Please be available via TEXT MESSAGE to come pick up your pet within 30 minutes of being texted. Please indicate if you would like to receive additional services for your pet at your expense on the paperwork you will receive at check in.
Please feel free to email with questions or remove yourself from the pre-registration list.

Thank you

UPDATE-REGISTRATION IS CLOSED! 11/9/25
PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE POST.
This announcement is regarding our FREE SPAY/NEUTER NAMASTE GRANT DAY on 11/29 in Center:

We are re-opening our registration form.
We will allow up to 200 pre-registrations.
2 pets per household.

ON 11/29 - Lineup will begin at 7:45am. First Come, First Serve to those who have preregistered.
Preregistration does not guarantee a spot.
It does however guarantee that you will be accepted if you line up and are one of the first 100 pets.
First 100 pets will receive surgery, Rabies and a microchip, all free.
We cannot hold spots because when an event is free, we have entirely too many no shows the day of the event.
We want more than 100 pets to participate, because we will likely have to decline some pets for various reasons-
Overweight
Nursing mothers
too young
too old
other health concerns
are the most common reasons we have to decline pets.

If a pet in the line is declined, we can move on to the next pet.
This is the only way to guarantee we can get 100 pets in for surgery on that day and we want to maximize the grant funds!

If you are not willing to line up on 11/29 and wait, DO NOT PREREGISTER.
If you didn't get on the preregistration list, DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND SHOW UP THAT DAY.

We hope this explains the process.
The question we keep receiving is, "how do I know I got in?"
If you got the submission screen on your request, you are preregistered. There is nothing else to do but show up on 11/29 and line up.

Here is the link. We will close it again when we reach 200 participants.
