Helping to curb the population of stray cats in Hempstead Town, the town Animal Shelter will host a free Trap/Neuter/Return Day on Saturday, July 28, 2012.

On a first-come, first-serve basis, the Animal Shelter will perform 40 free spay/neuter surgeries on cats trapped by town residents.

“On July 28, the Hempstead Town Animal Shelter will ensure that at least 40 feral cats will be spayed/neutered so that they cannot further contribute to the stray population,” said Animal Shelter Director Cynthia Iacopella.

Hempstead Town Supervisor Kate Murray and Senior Councilman Anthony J. Santino have announced that the town is again hosting Long Island’s largest Senior Citizen Health and Wellness Fair at Lido Beach Town Park on Thursday, June 14 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

“As the health and well-being of our mature residents is an important concern, I invite seniors to take part in our Annual Health and Wellness Fair,” stated Murray. “Attendees will have an opportunity to receive a number of important health screening services free of charge as well as obtain valuable health related information and referral services.”
