Spay Day

I took the kittens to Emancipet's mobile spay station in South Austin this morning. Even though it was early, the parking lot at the park was full of folks ready to have their cats and dogs spayed and/or neutered. Each of us took a number, and waited in the sun for our numbers to be called. It didn't take long before our companion animals were ushered into the mobile surgery van by friendly Emancipet staff. It really is incredible that you can get your pets spayed/neutered for free: for anyone considering this, here's Emancipet's schedule. I strongly encourage you to to take advantage of this fantastic and compassionate service, if you're in the Austin area.

My sweet friend Esha picked the cats up after their surgeries and brought them home, since I was at work. Amazingly, the kittens seem to be doing just fine. They don't even seem to be in pain at all; Emancipet provides pain medication to dogs and cats free of charge as well, which makes for an easy recovery.
