ACT Now

Hillsborough County is fortunate to be the home of the Animal Coalition of Tampa. ACT, located at 1719 W. Lemon Street, is a low cost spay/neuter clinic that also offers vaccinations, microchip and exams for dogs and cats. Low income residents can apply for a voucher that allows them to have up to four cats and four dogs spayed or neutered every year for just $10. That fee includes a rabies shot and county tag. ACT opened its doors in March of 2006 and with a mostly volunteer staff, performs surgeries on over 7000 animals a year. Be sure to check out their excellent website at ACT. They even have their very own blog. To make an appointment, you can call 813-250-3900. I'll be posting their monthly specials here. This month, it's called "Who's Your Daddy" in honor of Father's Day. This is a cat special, but it's such a worthy cause, that I got my dogs' permission to post it. ACT will neuter male cats for $20 every Tuesday in June. What a treasure this clinic is to the people of Hillsborough County.
