"This investment from Petco Love will go a long way," said Joe Federico, Founder and Executive Director of Stray Paws Animal Haven. "Our newly retrofitted mobile spay and neuter clinic will allow us to perform 30-40 additional surgeries per day, and give us the ability to support under served communities by bringing resources directly to where they are needed most. We are dedicated to stopping companion animal overpopulation at its root, but we cannot do it without the support of organizations like Petco Love."
"Today Petco Love invests in Stray Paws Animal Haven, and hundreds of other organizations across the nation working to improve animal health and welfare, as part of our commitment to creating a future in which no pet is unnecessarily euthanized," said Susanne Kogut, president of Petco Love. "Our local investments are only one component of our lifesaving efforts. This year, we also launched the first of our national tools, Petco Love Lost, which empowers all animal lovers to drive lifesaving change right alongside us."
