RESCUE FIX (Shelters and Rescue Groups)

AWA partners with the community to provide subsidized services for low-income pet owners and rescue groups.  This program gives shelter animals another chance for adoption into their loving, forever homes.

Helping Hand Surgery - Through "Helping Hand Surgery", the AWA can provide an affordable surgical option for shelter and rescue organizations that don't have the resources for surgery at a full-service veterinary hospital.  Examples of surgeries included in this program are tumor removals, hernias, wound repairs, ear hematomas, entropions, enucleations and other eye surgeries.

Prior to the surgery, the shelter/rescue organization will need to bring the complete medical records (including any blood work, X-rays, etc.) from their veterinarian and the animal to the AWA for an evaluation ($30.00 exam fee).  The AWA's veterinarian will determine if surgery at the AWA is possible.  At the time of the exam, the fee for surgery, anesthesia and any necessary medications will be discussed.

  
Vaccines

Our low-cost vaccination clinic is open to everyone and is held each Monday from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and one or two Saturdays of each month between 8 a.m. and 12 p.m. at the shelter.  No appointment is needed. Saturday schedule.  NOTE:  Bring prior vaccination records. Distemper and rabies vaccinations require a certificate, not a tag, with the date of last vaccinations.

You can trust us:
The Animal Welfare Association clinic is staffed by licensed veterinarians and skilled technicians. The only types of surgeries we do are spays and neuters, and we perform more of these surgeries than any other organization in the South Jersey region.  In 2002 we celebrated our 100,000 spay/neuter surgery and we perform over 9000 procedures each year.

Feral cats:
Yes, our technicians are skilled at handling feral cats for surgery. Feral cats that are caught in traps should be brought to the shelter in the trap and will be returned to you in a carrier provided by you. Many hardware and rental stores rent or sell humane traps. Absorbable sutures are available so that no return visit is needed.

Rescue and shelters:
Yes, we do offer even further reduced rates for legitimate rescue and shelter operations. You must present your group's 501(c)3 designation at time of surgery.  For more information, please contact the clinic at 856-424-2288 extension 105. Leave your contact information and the name of your group and a staff member or volunteer will return your call.
