The Rig is a 53-foot trailer capable of providing for the spay and neuter of up to 120 cats and small dogs in a single day. This state-of the-art mobile clinic was specially designed and built to provide the highest quality of surgery for large numbers of animals. It comes equipped with surgical instruments, an autoclave sterilizer, anesthesia machines and surgical tables for up to four veterinarians operating at a time. The Rig can also double as a disaster response vehicle if needed. It's quite an honor to be selected from among all the terrific spay/neuter programs in the country. Welcoming the Big Fix Rig into Gainesville kicks off a major spay/neuter program in our community to help end the tragedy of pet overpopulation. Free and low-cost neutering will be focused on those who need it most: pets in low-income households, pit bulls, and feral cats. Please click on http://humanealliance.org/HA2/bigfixrig.htm to see pictures and learn more about this spectacular vehicle. While the gift of this Rig is valued at more than $100,000, NMHP still has to raise approximately $ 12,000 to transport the vehicle, prepare its installation site, and train its new veterinary staff. I hope you were able to forward the earlier communication from Chris Machen regarding the fundraising efforts of NMHP and the thank you party to follow. Please share this wonderful news with your friends and colleagues and again ask that they consider donating to our cause through our web site, www.nmhp.net or by mail to the address below. The site also contains a very informative video I hope you will view and will include pictures of the "Rig" soon so check back often! For the animals.... Dale C.
