RSPCA Victoria is offering low-cost pet vaccination days to locals in Hume and Whittlesea in January.

On Wednesday, January 17 at the Kalkallo Community Centre RSPCA will offer vaccinations again, for just $59.

It comes after they had a day at the Homestead Community and Learning Centre, Roxburgh Park,

RSPCA Victoria head of prevention Rebecca Cook said they were looking forward to visiting some communities for the first time and returning to other familiar locations.

“At our last clinic in Kalkallo, we saw 27 local pets and their owners, and we saw 69 local pets and their owners the last time we visited Reservoir,” she said.

“We’re very excited about all these clinics because we know the locals there love their pets, and these clinics are a great way to help keep them happy and healthy.

“We want to help people care for their pets by increasing their access to veterinary and preventative care, which supports lifelong bonds among families with their cats and dogs.”

Appointments at each clinic must be booked online in advance with limited places available.

Pet owners can also receive professional advice on how to keep them healthy now and into the future.
