In his conversation with Stacy, Joe details how he became involved in TNR and provides insight into the services that Stray Paws Animal Haven provides. He discusses his encounters with community members and how he has helped sway those who previously only saw the cats as a neighborhood problem.

9th Longo Toyota Free Vaccine Event

Stray Paws Animal Haven and Longo Toyota once again joined forces on St. Patrick's Day, March 17th, to provide free vaccines for pets of all sizes. With the support of Petco Love, we were able to offer FVRCP and DHPP vaccines for free to a total of 242 pets at Longo Toyota's dealership in El Monte. Grateful for Longo Toyota's sponsorship, we also provided 107 pets with much-needed microchips, crucial for their safety and identification. The event not only saved pet owners money but also contributed to keeping pets healthy and secure. Additionally, Stray Paws offered Rabies vaccines at a discounted rate of $15.00, ensuring pets meet necessary health requirements for boarding and grooming without additional exam fees. The impact of our efforts was highlighted just 8 days later when a shelter identified a cat's microchip, which had been provided at our event. Thanks to Longo Toyota's sponsorship of microchips, this cat was reunited with its home, showcasing the vital importance of these community events in saving and protecting pets' lives.
