Thanks to everyone who came out to the Open House

We want to thank everyone who supported Planned PEThood last night by coming out to the Open House. We had such a huge turnout! About 100 people dropped by throughout the evening to support Spay & Neuter. We appreciated the opportunity to get to know you all a little better, share some goodies from our vendors with you, and chat about rescue and Spay/Neuter!

More than half of you took part in the "Guess How Many Cotton Balls" contest.


First prize is a free cat neuter (or $45 off any surgery) and we actually had a tie! We'll be notifying winners tomorrow so be on the lookout for an e-mail from Planned PEThood!


We are so humbled by the generosity of our supporters. Our donation table became a donation ROOM! Look at all that stuff!


What this means to us is less money spent on supplies and more money to spend on SPAY & NEUTER!! Priceless!


As we mentioned on our Facebook page earlier in the week, all monetary donations received during the Open House and until the end of the month will benefit our SPAY IT FORWARD fund which will allow us to provide FREE spays & neuters for our neediest clients. Last night we raised almost $500!!! Amazing!!



If we can double that by the end of the month, we'll be able to have one entire day of free spays & neuters. We really want to be able to do a lot of these, so thanks so much for your support.

Tell your friends to link on over to our Paypal account if they'd like to help out!


Again, we just want to thank everyone for their continued support. We just can't tell you enough how much we appreciate you all! We're so excited to bring this important service to Gwinnett County!! Opening day is August 30th and we already have appointments booked!!
