“PETS IN NEED” PROGRAM TARGETS CINCINNATI’S NEEDIEST
Joint UCAN, Freestore Foodbank program receives $30,000 grant
CINCINNATI, OHIO, January 14, 2010 – Funding for an innovative new program to benefit Cincinnati’s neediest pets was announced jointly today by the United Coalition for Animals (UCAN) and the Freestore Foodbank.
We are pleased to announce that UCAN is the recipient of a $5,000 grant from
the Ohio Animal Health Foundation. The funds will be used to subsidize the
cost of surgeries for dogs and cats from low-income households.
UCAN is very grateful to OAHF for providing us with the means to help everyone
to be responsible pet owners, regardless of their ability to pay.
Helping Feral Cats
Subsidy funding is still available from our generous grant from PetSmart Charities.
While the funds last, we are able to offer a spay/neuter + rabies vaccine for feral
cats for only $21.
Please read our feral cat policies on the "Our Clinic" page of this website Reminder: Feral cats do not require an appointment but
must be checked in no later than Noon on Monday through
Thursday only. We do not do surgeries for ferals on Fridays.
