| (Tue., Jan. 24, 2012)—Discount certificates for the City and County of Honolulu Spay/Neuter
Program are no longer available because the $330,000 appropriated for the program has been
exhausted.
Those interested in participating in the program will have to wait until the next fiscal year
beginning July 2012.
Certificates are sold to the public and redeemed with participating Spay/Neuter Program
veterinarians. The participating veterinarians then redeem the certificates with the Hawaiian
Humane Society.
The Spay/Neuter program includes 16 clinics throughout the island. The veterinarians
involved in the program voluntarily perform the surgeries at significantly reduced rates, resulting
in tremendous savings to pet owners while addressing pet overpopulation on Oahu. Certificates
that have already been purchased may still be redeemed but no new certificates will be sold.
