FOFA celebrates 25 years of helping pets

Friends of Forks Animals is celebrating over 25 years of service and dedication to animals of the west end of Clallam County. During this time thousand of animals have been spayed and neutered.

Countless animals have been moved to rescues where they were adopted to loving responsible homes and many animals that would have gone hungry received food. There have been so many animals that received medical treatment and survived because of the support the Friends provided.

To celebrate this 25-year milestone, cat spays and neuters will be offered to those who qualify for $2.50 per surgery during the month of June. The cat population needs to be addressed and owners are encouraged to take advantage of this one-time unbelievable rate.

Also, the Friends reminds pet owners that fleas can kill their pets if gone untreated. Because of the warmer winter this past year, fleas are sure to be an issue.

Kittens and even adult cats die every year because of flea infestations. Our local veterinarian can be consulted on the best product for your pet. Oftentimes over the counter medications can be harmful.

Friends of Forks Animals will be at Forks Outfitters from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Saturday, June 6. Members will be glad to take names to schedule an appointment for your pet. Cash donations are gratefully accepted as well as receipts from Forks Outfitters. The Friends relies on donations for funding.

Please have your pet spayed or neutered, this lightens the financial burden on FOFA and helps control pet overpopulation and the need for euthanasia. Help the Friends make this promotion a success. Call 374-3332 to schedule and appointment. This is a low-income program.
