PARL Expands Its Affordable S.N.A.P. Program to include Rabbits!

This month, we are excited to announce the expansion of our low-cost Spay/ Neuter Assistance Program (SNAP) to include rabbits. PARL believes that the health and behavioral benefits are just as important to rabbits as they are to cats and dogs. We also believe that a low-cost option is necessary in our community. Our rabbit SNAP kick-off is just one of the many things we will be doing to celebrate Adopt-A-Rabbit Month in February as well as Spay Day on February 28th.

The Spay Neuter Assistance Program (SNAP) offers our community members spay and neuter services for cats and rabbits at a reduced rate. To schedule an appointment please call us at (401) 421-1399 or email reception-r@parl.org.

Deposit

A $30 deposit is required at the time of booking the appointment. The deposit can be in the form of a money order, check, or charge. We require 48 hours cancellation notice. Cancellations with less than 48 hours will not receive a refund on the deposit. When you drop off your cat for the appointment, the payment balance must be received in full (cash, check or charge). If booking three or more cats on one day, the full non-refundable payment must be paid in advance when booking the appointment.

Program Requirements

The Providence Animal Rescue does not provide any post-operative care. Any and all post-operative care required will be at the owner’s expense with a veterinarian of the owner’s choice.

Cats should not have access to food or water after 9:00 pm the night before surgery.

Rabbits should have access to food up until surgery.

Rabbits will be required to come into the shelter on a day prior to their surgery for a pre-surgery check-up

Drop off for surgery at our shelter is between 8:15 and 8:45 am, and pick up is at 3:00 p.m. Other pick up arrangements must be made in advance.

The legal owner of the pet must drop the animal off and sign release paperwork allowing the Providence Animal Rescue League to examine and perform surgery.

All animals must be brought in individual plastic carriers — please be sure carrier is clean and has a clean towel in the bottom. (Appropriate carriers are available for purchase at PARL.)

No nursing or lactating mothers.

All animals will be tattooed at the time of surgery to indicate that your pet has been spayed/neutered.

To schedule an appointment please call us at (401) 421-1399 or email reception-r@parl.org.

Once is Enough! Spay Me Program

We all know that there are more dogs and cats out there than homes. To help battle the overpopulation problem PARL offers a free spay program. We will spay the mother of the litter for free when the kittens or puppies are surrendered to the shelter. For more information about this program call (401) 421-1399.
