Mother Spay Program

Unexpected litter? We’re here to help!

Home | Animal Admissions | Mother Spay Program

About the Program

If your female dog or cat is expecting or just had babies, we can help through our Mother Spay Program. 

Once the litter is 8-10 weeks old, we will spay the mother at no cost to you and find homes for all the little ones if you admit them to AWS’ Adoption Program.

Mom will stay with you, her spay surgery taken care of.

Benefits of Mother Spay Program

  • By spaying Mom, you ensure no more unwanted litters and you improve Mom’s health and quality of life.
  • By admitting (surrendering) the kittens or puppies to AWS for adoption, you remove the stress of trying to find home for the little ones yourself. Like all pets in AWS’ Adoption Program, they will be spayed/neutered, receive veterinary care, vaccinations and preventatives. Most importantly, they will be given top-notch care from the moment they are admitted to AWS to the moment they go home with their new people.

Get started by filling out the below form. Or give us a call at (207) 985-3244 to learn more.

Pets are more than just animals; they’re important members of our families!

✔ Medications and Prescriptions
✔ A Crate or Carrying Bag
✔ Copies of Vaccinations or Medical Records

Dogs are known for their loyalty, and cats for their companionship, but not many know of how fun, loving, and unique a guinea pig can be, like our friend 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗸 here. So, to celebrate our many cute cavies and to help these furry friends get adopted, we’re here to shed some light on why guinea pigs make the perfect pets!

𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆`𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗹𝘆 𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲.
Guinea pigs come in many shapes, sizes, and colors, and each pig has their own personality and preferences. Some pigs have long, silky hair while others have short, coarse hair. Some pigs are all black while others can be calico or brindle. There are even guinea pigs who are born naturally bald! And like all animals, pigs have different personalities. Some are more shy and introverted, while others are more outgoing and energetic. No matter what, though, you can bet your cavie will be a loyal and loving companion!

While every pet requires time, attention, and care, guinea pigs are known for being relatively easy to own. They like larger enclosures with space to roam free, but are usually healthy and hardy animals. They also require bedding, hay, grain, and vegetables, as well as toys, tunnels, and huts. Once they’re all set up and ready to go, however, guinea pigs mostly just require your love and attention!
