🐾 Stronger Connections, Healthier Onslow 🐾

We believe in the power of community and collaboration to create a healthier, happier Onslow! 🐶🐱 We’re excited to share updates from our amazing local organizations working hard to positively impact our community’s health and well-being. 🐕🐾

Onslow County Animal Services provides a low-cost rabies vaccination clinic every Thursday from 1pm-4pm for Onslow County residents. The cost is $10 for pets that are at least four months of age, leashed or crated. They accept cash and card for payment. A valid photo ID is REQUIRED.

North Carolina law requires that all owned cats & dogs must be vaccinated against rabies by four months of age. Rabies tags must be worn on the collar. Please keep your pets and our community safe & vaccinate your pet against rabies. 🐾🐶

Let’s continue building strong connections and working together for a brighter, healthier future!

Today kicks off our joint effort with Share The Table for our Pack the Pallet event benefiting people and pets in need in our community!

One of our main donations locations is Pet Supplies Plus - Surf City, NC

We are grateful to have two additional businesses in Hampstead as donations drop off locations. 👇🏼

Burry Chocolates & Leaf & Barrel Provision Co. - Beer, Wine, Ci**rs

We often find people will feed their pets before feeding themselves. Lots of people live on a limited income and just one bag of food can give them the help they need.

FERAL FRIDAYS!!!
As part of Ideal Pet Care's commitment to partnering with our community in supporting our four-pawed family, we will be offering a program for discounted spay/neuter services for community cats. This program aims to support community efforts for trap, neuter, release (TNR) and reduce feral cat numbers.
We will be offering discounted surgical rates for ferals on Fridays beginning in March - no appointment needed, check in at 9am.
Spay $75
Neuter $50
Includes surgical sterilization and Rabies vaccination
ALL CATS WILL BE EAR TIPPED (no exceptions) and tattooed
Cats MUST ARRIVE IN A TRAP as these ferals will be sedated in the trap to ensure staff safety. Cats brought in a carrier will be asked to come back in a trap on another day.
If you work with a rescue organization or are with a group of volunteers who plans to bring a large number of ferals, we ask that you please call ahead so we can advise the best date we can do the most kitties at one time.
For any additional questions on this program, please email [email protected], include subject line: FERAL FRIDAYS.
Thank you!

Paws 4 Purpose has created a new interactive map for all our local microchip scanning stations! The time and dedication this initiative takes for a program is immense. We are happy to have two stations also listed on their map and encourage those who haven't checked out any stations to do so and familiarize yourself with them in case you ever need to use one.

As I have been following this announcement waiting for confirmation, it is unfortunately true. However there are FREE registration options unlike the methods originally shared around. Below is a link recommended by Paws 4 Purpose that is a free registration for your pet's microchip.
