The Adair County Humane Society of Kirksville, Missouri is proud to announce that our March 2010 “Be a PAL -- Prevent a Litter” campaign exceeded our expectations: 101 animals--59 dogs and 42 cats--were fixed as part of this campaign!
Sixty people received $50 coupons to offset the cost of the procedure. Many more took advantage of special discounts from local veterinarians. There were over one hundred entries for our prize drawing. We commend community members for taking this essential step to end pet overpopulation.
We thank Missy (shelter manager) and Shelly (adoption coordinator) for managing the extra phone calls and the influx of visitors at the humane shelter, as well as for their daily efforts (routine and extraordinary) on behalf of the homeless animals of our area.
We thank the ASPCA for a grant that funded thirty of our $50 certificates, as well as the many anonymous local donors who have asked us to put their money to work on spay/neuter efforts.
