Now extended through January 2012! |
Momma cat and four kittens – oh my! What to do? Its litter season for all the momma cats that were not spayed this spring. To help curb the number of unwanted cats and kittens, Spay Oklahoma will spay and neuter a momma cat and 4 kittens for $80 for low income families (extra kittens are $20 each) now through September 30. Normally, cats over five months are $30 and kittens under 5 months are $20 –the June Kitten Package Special is a $30 savings!
Research has shown that when kittens and puppies are sterilized before their first heat cycle (five months in cats) first litters are avoided and help end the pet overpopulation crisis in this country. Further, the animals are healthier and almost 100% risk free from uterine, testicular, and mammary cancer.
BEAT THE HEAT! Call Spay Oklahoma North at 918.728.3144 or our new clinic in Bixby at 918.970.4222 for an appointment.
Spay Oklahoma is a non-profit organization dedicated to eliminating the pet overpopulation crisis in Oklahoma. In the last eight years over 45,000 surgeries have been performed preventing millions of unwanted litters and thousands of euthanasias.
A non-profit organization founded in Tulsa in 2004 in response to Oklahoma’s serious pet overpopulation problem.
More than 60 percent of pets become unwanted and will be abandoned or end up in pounds, shelters, or research labs.
Our mission
Eliminate pet overpopulation in Oklahoma by providing low cost spay and neuter services to pet owners who are financially unable to afford this important step in the care of their dogs and cats.
The Role
Affordable spay and neuter surgery reduces the numbers of unwanted puppies and kittens and improves the quality of life of companion animals and their families.
And Now There Are Two!
Since opening our original clinic in 2004 in north Tulsa, more than 34,000 surgeries have been completed.
In April, we opened a second clinic, located at East 128th Street and South Memorial Blvd., Bixby, in response to demand for our low cost service, to reduce waiting time for appointments, and for geographic convenience.
With two clinics, we project serving 14,000 pets annually by 2011.
The Scoop about SpayOK
“Fixing” reduces animal abuse and neglect, dumping, dog bites, roaming dogs, sick animals, injuries, and unwanted litters. Spayed females have less risk of mammary tumors and neutered males are less aggressive and are healthier.
Spay OK is the only program with low-cost, on-site clinics in eastern Oklahoma.
We “fix” 35-40 pets daily at each clinic and also offer low-cost, one-time worming and annual vaccination.
Last year, more than 7,300 dogs and cats were euthanized at the City’s shelter. We want to significantly reduce that number each year.

Five Saves Lives Program!
SPAY OK is proud to be a part of the national “Five Saves Lives,” campaign, an early age sterilization initiative intended to prevent companion animals from having, “just one litter.” Early age sterilization is the most effective way to halt pet overpopulation while also preventing many health problems, including mammary tumors, at a far greater rate than later sterilization.
