Monroe County Humane Association offers no appointment pet health services

The Monroe County Humane Association (MCHA) is offering a range of veterinary services for pets through its monthly Mobile Vaccine Clinics.

The clinics provide preventative care and wellness services, including legally mandated rabies vaccines for pets aged 12 weeks and older, nail trims, anal gland expressions, microchips, and preventive measures for flea, tick, and heartworm. The Mobile Clinics are open to everyone and require no appointments, making it an affordable way to safeguard pets from common diseases while also promoting public health.

The Animal Care Campus, 791 S. Fieldstone Blvd., will be open on Sunday, Jan. 7, 2024, from 1-3 p.m. with no appointment needed. Subsidized rates are available to residents experiencing financial hardship. To qualify for these rates, residents should bring valid documentation with them to the Mobile Vaccine Clinic. Cats must be in carriers, and dogs must be leashed (no retractable leashes).

It’s essential for pet owners to understand that pets showing signs of illness or aggression might be turned away. Communities or organizations interested in hosting a wellness clinic are warmly invited to reach out to MCHA. This is a golden opportunity to bring essential pet care services to your area.
