The Suffolk Humane Society brings low-cost spay/neuter services to Suffolk through Virginia Beach's Neuter Scooter. For over a year, two locations have allowed us to park the Neuter Scooter in their parking lot 2-3 times per month and use one room of their business to hold pets (in carriers) recovering from surgery. This program has altered over 900 pets in Suffolk!
Unfortunately, we have lost both locations this week and are in desperate need of new locations. We have over 90 pets slated for surgery in the coming weeks and we don't want to turn them away! If you know of a business that would consider helping us in this capacity, please contact us for more information.
