NORFOLK — Norfolk Department of Public Health will be conducting a low-cost rabies clinic for dogs and cats on Saturday.
The clinic will run from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. in in the parking lot at the main Norfolk Health Center, 830 Southampton Ave. — at the intersection of Brambleton and Colley avenues.
The cost is $5 per animal, cash only and while supplies last, according to a news release from the city.
All animals must be at least 12 weeks old. Cats must be in carriers and dogs must be on leashes. A previous rabies certificate is required for the 3-year vaccine.
