Spay Neuter Campaign / Resources that helped us succeed!

WVVAW took on the funding of the WV Spay Neuter Assistance Program zealously.  Most of our information is taken from the www.fohowv.org site with their permission of course.  FOHO WV has gathered data for years about the overpopulation and euthanasia among our canine and feline friends.  While FOHO WV will educate you, WVVAW will rally you to call legislators and be active politically to obtain funding for WV SNAP.  We know we can FIX WV but we need your help.     Contact us here at info@wvvaw.org or message us on the Facebook page to join our effort.   Our posts on this site have a wealth of information for you on WHAT, WHY AND HOW we can do this.

Public Service Announcement Radio AD:

This radio ad is running on WCLG in Morgantown and we want it to run throughout WV radio stations!   Here is the link for the ad. If you know of a radio station in your area please help us to get this ad on their station. Print this and take it to your local station to get this PSA on their station so we can spread this message to all!

Each year, animal shelters in West Virginia take in over 50,000 cats and dogs, and each year, about 40% of these animals, including perfectly healthy and adoptable pets, are euthanized. Meanwhile, West Virginia taxpayers spend nearly $10 million annually to impound, care for, and euthanize unwanted dogs and cats.   By funding the WV State Spay Neuter Fund, we can control this pet-overpopulation by helping pet owners and communities throughout West Virginia spay and neuter local cats and dogs!   We can save money and save lives!

The Mountaineer Spay Neuter Assistance Program (M-SNAP) has loaned this wonderful radio ad to be used to obtain funding for the WV Spay Neuter Assistance Program. As of Aug 31, 2015 M-SNAP has paid for nearly 5,000 surgeries for a cost of more than $440,000! Visit their webpage (www.m-snap). Plus both M-SNAP and ReTails also have FB pages. ReTails is a thrift store at the Morgantown Mall which helps support S/N costs.

Thank you M-SNAP for all you have done in your area and are now willing to continue to do to reduce WV pet overpopulation through funding the WV State Spay/Neuter Program.
