Free Rabies Clinic For Wayne's Dogs, Cats Next Month

WAYNE, NJ — Wayne will hold another free rabies clinic for dogs and cats. The clinic will run from 9:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. Dec. 4 at Captain Kilroy Memorial Park (6 Concord Pl.).

The township encourages online pre-registration, but it's not required. However, officials ask that no more than two people per pet attend.

Dogs must be restrained on a non-retractable leash to allow for quick, easy transfer to the veterinarian or technician. Cats must be transported in a suitable carrier or container to prevent escape.

Proof of a 2022 license is required. Residents having failed to license their dogs/cats for 2022 may do so after Wayne's Rabies Clinic by going to the township's website and using the Citizen Self-Service Portal.

If your dog is spayed or neutered, proof is needed to get the reduced fee of $13.20. A license fee of $l6.20 is expected if your dog has not been spayed or neutered. The license fee for cats is $8 for neutered/spayed pets and $15.00 for non-neutered/non-spayed felines. A $10 late fee will be charged for each animal anytime after Feb. 15. Copies of all certificates showing proof of rabies, spaying or neutering will be returned.
