TUCSON, AZ — Pima County Animal Care Center is hosting a free pet vaccination and microchipping clinic this Saturday. The clinic is set for 8 a.m.-4 p.m. at the center at 4000 N. Silverbell Road, according to a news release. Pet owners who want to bring their pets will have to sign up for a spot virtually. The center uses a virtual queue system called While Wait that pet owners can sign onto beginning at 8 a.m. Friday. The slots tend to fill up quickly, so for those who are lucky enough to get a spot, While Wait will send a confirmation text with a timeframe for when their pet or pets will be seen. While Wait will notify blocks of pet owners throughout the day that the center is nearly ready to see their pet or pets and that they should begin making their way to the clinic. Even though each separate pet will get their own appointment, PACC asks that owners bring all of their pets that obtained appointment times to the first appointment. Owners who don't initially get an appointment are encouraged to check back with While Wait in case of cancellations. Cancellations can be made by texting CANCEL to the appointment confirmation text. Dogs must be leashed and cats must be in carriers during the clinic. Owners should bring water for themselves and their pets. According to the news release, services offered during the clinic are: A brief exam by a veterinarianFeline Viral Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus, Panleukopenia vaccines for cats Distemper, parvovirus, parainfluenza, and hepatitis/adenovirusvaccines for dogsRabies vaccines for cats and dogsDeworming for pets younger than 6 months oldMicrochip implantation
