Ontario’s first high volume spay/neuter centre opens

The GTA’s first high-volume spay and neuter clinic, created as a result of the partnership between Spaycentral and the OSPCA, is now open at the Ontario SPCA clinic in Newmarket. The centre is open to the public, shelters, and rescue groups. A second spay neuter clinic is also available in the Barrie area.

The goals of the clinics are to offer affordable spay and neuter operations to help encourage people to fix their cats and dogs. The spay and neuter costs for cats are $50. For dogs, the neutering fee is $60 and $80 for spaying. The clinics also offer vaccinations and microchipping.

This coincides with the OSPCA’s increased efforts to end pet overpopulation with their new “Fix Your Pet” marketing campaign. Posters of dogs and kittens with slogans such as “It’s called a litter because some people just throw them away” will be seen at city bush shelters, and provincial libraries.
