Fix your pets, free of charge

Thanks to Austin Animal Center and Good Fix, a program of Greater Good Charities, Travis County and Austin residents will have the chance to get their pets spayed and neutered, free of cost, today and Saturday at the Travis County Expo Center. Registration and drop-off will take place from 7:30 a.m. until 10 a.m. on a first-come, first-served basis and is expected to fill up fast.

According to a press release from the county, proof of residency is required, and:

• Pets must be at least two pounds and two months old.
• Cats must be in a secure carrier.
• Only one cat per carrier.
• Alert staff if your pet is nursing.
• If your pet was vaccinated in the last year, bring proof of vaccine.
• All cats in traps will be ear tipped to indicate sterility status.
