Reasons to Spay/Neuter

Each day 70,000 puppies and kittens are born.  As long as these birth rates exist, there will never be enough homes for all the animals.  As a result, millions of healthy, loving cats and dogs, kittens and puppies, face early deaths as a form of animal control.  Others are left to fend for themselves against cars, the elements, animals, and cruel humans. 
What can you do to stop the suffering? 
Call PAWS today at 990-1018 and together we can make a difference in Gillespie County.

PAWS offers Gillespie Country residents an easy way to register to have their pets spayed/neutered during the annual rabies clinics sponsored by the City of Fredericksburg in January and February. 

The clinics are staffed by local vets who also work with PAWS by participating in the spay/neuter program.  PAWS volunteers staff tables where pet owners can register their pet to be spayed or neutered for free by their own vet.
