Ocooch Mountain Humane Society
OMHS is currently providing spay and neuter vouchers to low-income individuals and families who cannot afford the usual cost of spay and neuter surgeries. How does the voucher work? After an application is submitted, a voucher and instructions are sent via mail. Voucher recipients schedule an appointment with a participating veterinarian service. Voucher recipients are responsible for the amount, or co-pay, on the voucher and are encouraged to inquire about vaccine costs and an estimate of all charges while scheduling the appointment. The co-pay, vaccinations, and any additional fees must be paid at the time of services by the voucher recipient.
