May 2010: Clem Roberts and Nicole Harris generously chose to have all their family and friends sponsor a Fix Our Ferals Clinic in lieu of wedding gifts for their wedding in Mid-May, 2010. Fix Our Ferals is very grateful to Clem and Nicole and their friends and family. Their donation will sponsor an upcoming clinic and save many, many lives.
January 21, 2007: Clinic sponsored by Karen Flynn in honor of White Kitty and Grey Kitty.
March 5, 2006: Clinic sponsored by Vanessa K. Wensing and Robert L. Wensing, Jr. Vanessa is a frequent volunteer vet at FOF clinics. She and Robert also sponsored the May 1, 2005, clinic.
January 8, 2006: Thanks to Suzanne Welker Jurgens, who is co-sponsoring our January 8 clinic in memory of her two cats, Sophia and Kali.
July 10, 2005: We are delighted to announce that the East Bay SPCA sponsored our July 10 clinic.
May 1, 2005: Clinic sponsored by Vanessa K. Wensing and Robert L. Wensing, Jr. Vanessa has already given her valuable time and skills to help Fix Our Ferals: She is a frequent volunteer vet at FOF clinics, giving up part of her Sundays to help curb cat overpopulation, and she has even helped to recruit other veterinarians for our program. In doing so she reflects the East Bay community’s growing awareness of the importance of free access to spay-neuter services, in order to end euthanasia in our shelters.
January 25, 2004: Clinic sponsored by Jennifer Smith in the name of her father, Sheldon D. Smith. Sheldon Smith is much missed at Fix Our Ferals. He helped found the organization in 1998, fabricated our spay boards and spay rack, and autoclaved instruments at our clinics, until his death in 1999. His daughter Jennifer also worked at the early Fix Our Ferals clinics as team leader on the Recovery Team. Thank you, Jennifer.
