(470)

Northwest Spay & Neuter Center is a non-profit organization providing spay/neuter, vaccines and microchipping for cats and dogs. The center is open to anyone who wants to help decrease animal overpopulation in Washington State. The expert staff provides the highest level of personalized care for each animal, including feral/free roaming cats, and performs an average of 60 surgeries a day. Spay and

neuter of the pets of low income families and free-roaming/feral cats results in fewer animals being born and fewer animals entering local animal shelters. The end result is fewer animals losing their lives due to homelessness. From its founding in late 2001 through 2007, Peninsula Spay/Neuter Project facilitated over 10,000 spays and neuters of pet cats and dogs, as well as feral and free-roaming cats. This was done with a volunteer staff. PSNP was the first organization in the Puget Sound region to focus on pit bull overpopulation. Over 300 dogs were sterilized at no cost to their owners in 2006 and 2007. PSNP was the first organization in Pierce County to focus on the overpopulation of feral and free-roaming cats. Over 5,200 cats were sterilized via trap/neuter/return between 2001–2007. On March 3, 2008, PSNP opened the first low cost, high volume, high quality spay/neuter clinic in the Puget Sound region. PSNP officially changed its name to Coalition: HUMAnE to better support its goals, mission and vision. In 2013, Coalition: HUMAnE became Northwest Spay & Neuter Center and moved into a beautiful new clinic on Pacific Avenue, three times larger than the previous rented facility. In April of 2014, NWSNC launched its animal shuttle to make affordable spay and neuter services accessible to animal lovers across western Washington.

👋 Is your pet ready for the 4th of July?

While many people look forward to fireworks, our pets often experience the holiday very differently. Loud noises and unexpected flashes can be terrifying for dogs and cats. That stress and anxiety can lead to hiding, pacing, shaking, and even attempts to escape.

Prepare now by scheduling a wellness visit to discuss ways to help your pet stay calm and comfortable. For some pets, that may include medications to help reduce anxiety.

It's also a great opportunity to make sure they can be reunited with you if they become frightened and run off. If your pet has a microchip, take a moment to verify that your contact information is up to date. If they aren't microchipped, we can help with that too.

Schedule your appointment today and head into the holiday with a plan to keep your bestie safe! 👉 nwspayneuter.org/online-scheduler
