Animal shelter offers coupons for spay, neuter procedures

Animal shelter offers coupons

Beginning Saturday, the Salina Animal Shelter will again be distributing $25 discount coupons for spay/neuter procedures for pets in Saline County.

Two hundred coupons will be available on a first-come basis. The coupons are being offered as part of the shelter's effort to reduce the number of homeless pets.

Discount coupons, which require only proof of Saline County residency, can be picked up at the shelter, 329 N. Second, beginning Saturday. The coupons will be accepted as $25 toward the payment of spay or neuter procedures at any participating veterinary clinic in Salina.

The shelter is open from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 3 to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday. All coupons must be used by July 5.

The shelter's two previous coupon campaigns, in September and January, resulted in about 250 dogs and cats being spayed or neutered.

For more information, call the Salina Animal Shelter at 826-6535.

Salina woman facing fraud charges

Salina police arrested a woman Monday for allegedly attempting to fraudulently obtain prescription hydrocodone and amoxicillin.

Deputy Police Chief Carson Mansfield said that the pharmacy at Salina's Wal-Mart received a call Saturday from a woman claiming to be a nurse from a Salina medical office asking the pharmacy to fill a prescription for 30 tablets of each drug. Pharmacy officials were suspicious of the person who arrived to pick up the drugs.

Another call came to the pharmacy Monday for a 30-day supply of the same drugs for another person. That person was arrested when she arrived to get the drugs, Mansfield said.

The suspect, Sunnie Marie Mitchell, 32, Salina, is facing two counts of obtaining a prescription by fraudulent means.

Link Road reopened after bridge work

Link Road from Stimmel Road to Pleasant Hill Road was reopened on Tuesday, Saline County announced through a press release.

The concrete deck repair work on the bridge over Eff Creek, a third of a mile north of Stimmel Road, has been completed. As a reminder, at some point in the summer, the same bridge will be closed for about three days for the application of a polymer concrete overlay.

The project is funded from the two-mill fund for bridge and culvert replacement and was the first of five to be repaired.
