Subsidised Neutering Schemes
We are very proud of our subsidised
neutered scheme in Walsall. Through the co-operation of selected local
vets we
are able to offer low cost neutering to people who may not be able to
afford it
otherwise. There is a large population of unwanted animals in Walsall,
who end
up being overbred, being put into rescue centres or becoming stray. The
only
realistic way forward is to reduce the number of animals in the area, as
there
just aren't enough good homes for them all. To combat
overpopulation we
aim to neuter as many pets in Walsall as we can.

Other Schemes
We run a scheme for small animals in need of
emergency
treatment. This scheme is only for cases where an owner cannot genuinely
afford
to take an animal for treatment without our assistance. You would need
to
contact us for more information. If you feel an animal may be in urgent
need of
veterinary attention, always seek advice from your local vet as first
port of
call.
