INDIANAPOLIS – Pet Friendly Services of Indiana, in partnership with Public Vet mobile clinic, is proud to announce the opening of scheduling for first-quarter “The FIX is IN!” spay/neuter clinics. Financial assistance is available on a case-by-case basis, ensuring every cat owner has access to affordable spay/neuter services.
“The FIX is IN!” program continues to make a tremendous impact across Indiana. In 2024, Public Vet hosted 155 spay/neuter clinics with support from Pet Friendly Services, fixing an impressive 14,007 cats statewide. These efforts have significantly reduced shelter intake numbers and addressed cat overpopulation issues in countless communities.
“Every cat we fix represents fewer homeless kittens, fewer shelter intakes, and more lives saved,” said Cheri Storms, Executive Director of Pet Friendly Services. “Thanks to our supporters, we’re easing the burden on shelters and rescues, and we’re excited to help even more cats in 2025.”
Many first-quarter clinics are already sold out due to high demand, highlighting the urgency for cat owners to schedule their appointments as soon as possible. Scheduling can be completed through Public Vet’s website at www.Pub.Vet.The current schedule is as follows:
