ANIMAL WELFARE ASSOCIATION, Inc.: Changes Occurring in AWA Veterinary Clinic Services

- Through 2020, Animal Welfare Association, Inc. will be embarking on a major facility upgrade, that is, the construction on a new, larger animal shelter.
- As we move operations to accommodate the demolition of the existing 5,000 sq. ft. building and the construction of the new 15,000 sq. ft. building, the Affordable Fix/ low-cost, spay/neuter services, and on-going wellness/illness care services, provided to community members will be impacted.
- As with all of AWA’s programs and services during this transition, the Pet Clinic will remain open; however, the Clinic will be housed in a double-wide on AWA property and will be operating on a very limited basis for the community. Our first priority is, and will remain, the medical care of our shelter animals, and that will continue as always.

Can I still get my pet spayed/neutered?

AWA is committed to preventing pet overpopulation. During construction time, the Clinic will be operating at reduced capacity and will primarily focus spay/neuter programs in the areas of greatest community need: feral cats, pit bulls, and support for rescue partner groups.

To support spaying/neutering of owned animals, AWA has reached out to the local veterinary practice community for assistance in filling this need. (See information below.)

Will I be able to schedule Wellness exams?

AWA is providing limited wellness exams however due to the construction and temporary space constraints there may be times when AWA is unable to schedule wellness exams. If you call and we are unable to make an appointment AWA has enlisted the support of local veterinary practices for assistance. (See information below.)

Will my rescue group still be able to get our cats spayed/neutered?

AWA will schedule future days for Feral-Fix-It, Rescue-Fix, Fix-It Cat, SniPit, and the outreach program into Camden. As these dates are placed on the calendar, they will be shared with the community via our website, awanj.org, and other social media sites.

What will happen to Vaccine Clinic Days?

AWA will continue providing Vaccine Clinic Days, but the usual Monday, 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. timeframe may be changed. We will also be looking at doing Vaccine Clinic Days off-site at partner organizations and/or with our mobile unit. AWA will inform the community – well in advance – as to when and if the changes will occur.
