In honor of ASPCA Day — and in recognition of Mission Orange, the society’s effort to make every U.S. community humane — the Animal Coalition of Tampa Spay Neuter Clinic will spay or neuter orange cats for free on April 10. Owners must call in advance for an appointment at (813) 250-3900. Go to http://www.humanesocietyofpinellas.org for information.

Tampa is one of six target communities for Mission Orange, which seeks to make our nation one where there is no euthanasia of adoptable animals simply because of a lack of resources and awareness.
