In order for every pet to have a home and family it is necessary to reduce the numbers of animals that continue to be born in horrific numbers. Achieving that requires education and making affordable spay and neuter available to everyone. Many people in NM, as well as throughout the country, don't have the money and may even not have the means to transport their animals to vet clinics.There are still those who don't understand the importance of spay/neuter but many more are learning and willing to do it if they have the means.
