I took my two male kittens in to be spayed

I took my two male kittens in to be spayed
at SPCA clinic in Salinas. I was instructed
to have my kittens there between 7:30 and
8:00, which I did. I was told that staff would
call me to pick-up kittens by 3:30 because
staff wanted to leave by 4:00. Because I
live in Pacific Grove, I came back to Salinas
to wait. I waited until 4:00. Staff called and
said kittens wouldn t be ready to 4:30. This
means that my precious kittens had sat
In their carriers for most of the day. This is
NOT humane treatment. The clinic certainly
seemed to have plenty of staff members
working today. Why I couldn t make an
appointment for a specific time for my
kittens to be spayed is beyond me. For
an organization that touts itself for
preventing cruelty to animals, this is shocking
and really unacceptable. Perhaps the
SPCA should spend some of the millions of
dollars of donations on making a better
organized and efficient system for its
animal patients and their owners!
