Thanks to support from the Victorian State Government Animal Welfare Grants Program, Horsham Rural City Council is pleased to offer subsidised cat desexing to eligible residents.
The out-of-pocket cost for the owner after the subsidy will be just $45 per cat. This subsidy can be claimed on up to two cats per household, and the program will run until spots are depleted.
This offer is available to Horsham residents who have a government issued concession card. This includes health care card holders and pension/concession card holders.
People wishing to benefit from this program must provide proof of Horsham residency, such as a driver's license, utility bill or concession card with accurate address.
Why should you get your cat desexed?
There a wide range of benefits to desexing your cat.
A desexed cat is less prone to running away, less likely to fight other cats and less likely to spray around the house. Desexed cats are also less prone to certain cancers.
Apart from health benefits, preventing unwanted litters will keep from unnecessarily burdening pounds and rescue groups.
Owners of desexed cats also receive a discount in registration fees.
