Desexing Vouchers

Desexing Voucher Application and Purchase Form

As part of our commitment to our community to assist in reducing the unwanted number of dog and cat litters in the Tweed Shire, Friends of the Pound (Tweed) Inc. offer a subsidised desexing program to residents.

  • Be the holder of a Centrelink Pension Card; OR
  • Be the holder of a Health Care Card; OR
  • Earn an income of $50,000 gross or less per annum; AND
  • Be a resident in the Tweed Shire.

Qualification Terms and Conditions

1. In order to qualify for our low cost desexing program, you need to provide valid proof of income or a current Centrelink Pension card number:

a) In the latter case, you may be asked to present your Pension Card at your vet appointment where your ownership of the pet may be checked.

b) Valid proof of income for wage earners under the $50,000 threshold include your last tax assessment notice (not a tax declaration form) or a payslip, matching the name of the pet owner. We do not accept Family Tax Benefit statements as proof of income.

c) If you are not a resident of Tweed Shire you do not qualify for this program. Please do not complete the form.
