Critter Shack to launch Fix Your Critter program July 6

SAN ANGELO, Texas ( Concho Valley Homepage ) — To promote responsible pet ownership, Critter Shack will be introducing the Fix Your Critter voucher program in partnership with local veterinary partners.

The initiative aims to offer affordable spay and neuter services for dogs and cats in the Concho Valley area.

Beginning this Saturday, July 6, at the PetSmart located at 4439 Sunset Drive, pet owners can purchase vouchers between 9:30 a.m. and noon. Tables will be set up beside the Cat Room, accepting cash and card payments.

The vouchers, priced at $45 for cats and between $60 to $95 for dogs depending on size, cover services such as spay or neuter surgery, rabies vaccinations and additional preventative care tailored to each pet’s needs. This includes pain management medications to ensure the comfort of the animals post-surgery.

Lorry Minor, a spokesperson from Critter Shack Rescue, expressed the community impact of the program, noting that “residents within city limits utilize 83% of the vouchers sold.”

Additionally, Minor expressed hope for increased community support, highlighting potential cost effects if the City of San Angelo were to work alongside Critter Shack and Cassie’s Place.

“With over a million dollars allocated to animal services, collaboration could significantly reduce costs per animal,” Minor stated.

For more information about the voucher program and other services offered, attendees are encouraged to contact Critter Shack directly at (325)-450-7074 or visit crittershack.org .
