Desexing your pets
Hi Neighbours
It's kitten season and with warmer weather lasting longer, its probably kitten season all year. To combat unwanted kittens, please consider having your pet desexed.
There are many organisations that will help financially with this.
Here's a link to one

Desex your cat
Desexing your cat is the right thing to do.
Making sure that cats can't reproduce helps keep down the number of unwanted cats in Wellington.
Many unwanted cats are dumped and end up as strays, leading dangerous and unhealthy lives.
We know the cost of desexing stops many owners from getting their cats fixed. That’s why we help pay for some desexing operations.
With the support of our amazing vets in the Wellington area, we can offer desexing at $30 for males and $50 for females to owners who are eligible.
Eligibility
If you have a Community Services Card or Student ID and live in the Wellington area, you may be eligible for this offer.
If you don’t meet our criteria but cannot afford to get your cat desexed at normal vet rates, email us: desexing@catsprotectionwellington.org.nz.
The fee is paid directly to the vet when you take the cat in for surgery.
If a female cat is found to be pregnant at less than 6 weeks, you will need to pay another $20 to cover the extra cost of the operation.

The shelter is at 29 Vancouver Street, Kingston, Wellington.
