LA Animal Services Launches Instant Print-at-Home Spay/Neuter Vouchers
With this new innovation, it has never been easier to spay or neuter your pet!
Los Angeles, February 26, 2019 – LA Animal Services has unveiled a new Print-at-Home option for free or reduced cost spay/neuter vouchers, saving community members a trip to the shelter to get a voucher, or waiting to receive one in the mail in celebration of World Spay Day. With this new process, a voucher will be in your inbox in moments, each with their own individual bar code to be scanned when bringing in your companion animals in for spaying or neutering.
Vouchers may be printed at home and brought into the nearest animal service center or participating veterinary hospitals, spay/neuter clinics and mobile spay/neuter clinics.
“It has never been easier to spay and neuter your pets,” said Brenda Barnette, LA Animal Services General Manager. “With this new innovation, the process of receiving one of these vouchers is easier than ordering movie tickets online!”
“The new Print-at-Home voucher process is nothing short of a game-changer for current and soon-to-be pet owners of Los Angeles,” said Councilmember Paul Koretz. “This new convenience will make today, and future World Spay Days, easier to take part in for all Los Angeles City residents.”
Free Spay & Neuter Certificates (vouchers) and Discount Spay & Neuter Coupons are available for Los Angeles City residents online, and at all six LA City Animal Services Centers. Each household is eligible for discounts for three dogs and three cats per household. Feral cats and stray dogs do not qualify for this program.
More information about our spay/neuter program, as well as general benefits of the procedure, can be found online at http://www.laanimalservices.com/general-information/spay-neuter.
Los Angeles Department of Animal Services is one of the largest municipal shelter systems in the United States with six shelters serving approximately 60,000 animals annually and responding to 20,000 emergency calls involving an animal or person in danger. LA Animal Services promotes and protects the health, safety and welfare of animals and people.
