Eva!

 

Did You Know?!

Did You Know?  Cats can become pregnant as early as four months of age and dogs as young as five months, and dogs and cats will not hesitate to mate with a sibling or a parent. Lucky for Eva (pictured above), her pet parent brought her in to be spayed when she was three months old, so this baby will never go on to have babies of her own!  Prevent accidental litters by getting puppies and kittens 2 - 6 months of age fixed for $20 each this June.  Availability is limited so call us today at 419-266-5607!  Mention the "Did You Know" promotion.  Funding provided by PetSmart Charities®.

  

Wood County Humane Society Kittens!

  

It's "Kitten Season!"

Spring time is commonly known as "kitten season" in the animal shelter and rescue group world because it's when groups become overwhelmed with requests to take in kittens.  We recently fixed Glen and his four litter mates (pictured above with Development Coordinator Kristy Kissoff) for the Wood County Humane Society.  And click here to check out an adorable video of Tank, one of a gaggle of kittens we fixed for the Lenawee Humane Society! Tank is so typical of our pediatric patients; younger animals wake up faster from spay/neuter surgery and are ready to eat and play in no time.  The hardest part is keeping them quiet!    

Transportation for Your Pet!  
 
Free Pet Transportation to/from Humane Ohio!  

We're introducing a new service for pet parents and free-roaming cat caretakers who want to take advantage of Humane Ohio's low-cost spay/neuter prices, but who don't have transportation or can't get to Humane Ohio at our normal drop-off and pick-up times.  We're partnering with the Chester Ziblocki Senior Center and That Neighborhood Church on the north side, the Providence Center on the south side, the East Toledo Family Center on the east side and the Mayores Senior Center on the west side and will be offering free pet transportation to/from Humane Ohio using these locations as the drop-off and pick-up points for animals.  Transports will run from each location at least once a month starting in July.  Click here for dates, then call our transport coordinator Dena Clark at 567-395-7500 to reserve your spot.  Please spread the word!

BOGO Bowl!
