This kitty is not really ‘owned’ by anyone, but lives the good life by the sea at a vacation rental property.  We call him Blackie, for obvious reasons.  Thanks to help from SPCA Maui and 9th Life Hawaii he will continue to enjoy being pampered by tourists without adding to our island’s feral cat population!

SPCA Maui  will celebrate the  start of its accessible spay neuter program, SNAP,  and National Spay/Neuter Awareness Day February 22nd with a rally and public awareness sign waving  rally at Hana Highway and Haleakala and Hana Highways in the morning and across from  the Maui Beach Hotel in the afternoon.  SPCA Maui invites the public to join us in support of a “No More Homeless Pets Maui” and the end of killing as a means of companion animal control.  Spayed and Neutered pets on leashes welcome.

SPCA SNAP is a unique partnership between SPCA Maui and our island’s veterinarians providing accessible spay/neuter services to Maui’s companion animals regardless of ability to pay.    Pets and owners are matched with SPCA Maui partner veterinarians who perform the procedures.  SPCA Maui covers the amount of the procedure that the pet’s owner can not afford.

Here is our first SPCA SNAP story:

Xena, a free puppy from a “mistake” litter of 11 was lucky enough to find a loving forever home.  Her new family wanted to make sure the red nosed pit-bull would never have an unwanted litter like though the total cost of the procedures just wasn’t part of their budget right now and they wanted to have her spayed before her first heat.  Thanks to SPCA Maui SNAP, Makawao Veterinary Clinic and her caring family; Xena had the procedure and is back to her playful energetic self and an estimated 38,000 more pups from “mistake” litters have been prevented.

The statistics are alarming! Maui Humane Society kills more animals than it adopts out. We need to get control of the animal overpopulation here on Maui.
