Pet Sterilization
Pet PALS is a 50-50 cost share program available to Oktibbeha county residents, at least 18 years old, with a financial need that has prevented them from spaying/neutering their pets. For details or an application, please contact the shelter at 338-9093 or by email at oktcohumane@bellsouth.net. The pet overpopulation crisis can be stopped by having your pet spayed or neutered!
