Happy Tails: Affordable surgery option helped Blackie get neutered
Ms. McFather found a 1-month-old little black kitten on her front porch after a momma cat dropped him off and disappeared. Ms. McFather didn’t want the little kitten to die, so she took him into her home and gave him a new life and a name, Blackie.
Now that Blackie is 8 months old, Ms. McFather knew she needed to get him neutered. Ms. McFather is on a limited income and, after calling several full-service vets, was very depressed about getting Blackie neutered. After hearing of her struggles to find a more affordable vet option, a friend suggested Spay Neuter Network. Ms. McFather made an appointment to get Blackie neutered. Ms. McFather said, “I am so glad that SNN is here to offer low-cost neuters because people like me, on a very limited income, need someone like SNN to help us take care of our pets.”
Ms. McFather brought Blackie to our Crandall clinic to get neutered. He also received a free FVRCP vaccine. After Blackie’s surgery, Ms. McFather said, “Blackie is doing great because the staff cares and took good care of him.”

Thanks to a free neuter Coco gets to stay home
When Grace called 311 to surrender her one-year-old cat, Coco, because he was spraying all over the house, she reached our Pet Support and Resource Center. We told her Coco may be spraying because he had reached sexual maturity and was not fixed. He was just marking his territory as any unfixed male cat might do.
So, we offered Grace a voucher to get Coco neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped at one of our clinics. “Since then, he has been good and sleeping better at night,” says Grace. “He has stopped crying and is now more relaxed.”
We’re happy to have solved her problem and helped Coco remain with his family.
Our Pet Support and Resource Center has kept 502 pets out of the shelter in 2023. Your donation on North Texas Giving Day will help us keep more pets like Coco at home with their families.
