That’s why we always aim to

Ark Aid Inc – Free Desexing program
In 2016 our charity Ark Aid Inc. was successful in applying for two grants to offer free cat desexing for concession card holders. We desexed 220 cats in the Darwin region for free and microchiped 100 of these cats also for free.
In 2017 we have another free 120 free surgery spots for cat speys and cat castrations for concession card holders including pensioners. We also set up a cat education initiative called EveryCat
In 2018 we just desexed a further 75 cat.
