Petition for Spay & Neuter

October 21, 2009 by: fluffyfeet

kittensIf you have a pet dog or cat, or if you simply love dogs and cats, then please take a moment of your valuable time to sign the petition below from the Care2Petition Site.  State spay and neuter programs are helping to reduce the number of animals that are euthanized at rescues and shelters every year.  This petition lets the State of Massachusetts know the facts and urges the legislature there to pass a state spay and neuter program for the benefit of the animals in the state.

Follow the link in the email to sign the petition.

Care2 Action Alert

Twenty-six states already offer state-funded spay and neuter assistance — the type that is funded by a voluntary donation check-box option on state income tax forms. And the results have been impressive.

Now, another state, Massachusetts, hopes to join the list of states with a successful spay and neuter fund. Show your support! Take action >>

If passed, the Massachusetts Spay and Neuter Fund would make funds available to low-income residents who wish to sterilize and vaccinate a dog or and cat – including feral cats – and to educate the public about the importance of the procedure.

By showing your support for state-wide spay and neuter programs, you will not only be helping cats and dogs in Massachusetts, but you will sending a message to other states: it is our responsibility to care for the health and welfare of animals during good economic times and bad! >>

Colorado has already paid for more than 21,000 spay and neuter surgeries over the past four years, while New Hampshire reduced their euthanasia rates by 77 percent in just six years. Statewide spay and neuter programs work!

Thank you for taking a moment out of your busy day to make a difference.
