Spay/Neuter Assistance
If you live in Athens county, read below to find out about low cost options from ACHS.
STEP 1
: Find out when/where to register at one of the ACHS prepay sessions (see schedule on ACHS site). This reserves an appointment for your animal at the next available spay/neuter clinic. Financial assistance available for Athens County residents.
STEP 2: If you are requesting financial assistance, bring the following items with you to the registration/prepay session:
A) photocopy of 2007 tax return or photocopy of proof of assistance through one of the eight government programs which will qualify you for financial assistance for spay/neuter (see list below)
B) proof of Athens County residency (e.g., rental contract, property tax bill, driver's license with a STREET address-not P.O. Box)
C) CASH copayment: $30 for 1st dog, $15 for each addt'l dog, $15 for first cat, $10 for each addt'l cat
STEP 3: When you receive your clinic appointment date/time, drop your animal(s) off in the morning at the clinic you have been scheduled for and pick up your spayed/neutered pet in the evening.
STEP 4: Enjoy life knowing that your dog/cat will live a longer, healthier life, a life without the stress of finding homes for kittens/puppies, and happiness knowing that you have helped your community by being a responsible pet owner.

Spay/Neuter Ordinance
Athens City Council passed (and then later repealed) the Spay Neuter Ordinance on June 21st 2004. Please contact your city council representative to re-enact the ordinance and see that it is enforced!
