Tito’s Handmade Vodka Sponsors RedRover Relief’s Urgent Care Grant Program

Sacramento, California, June 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — For the first time, RedRover® is proud to announce spay and neuter services are now being offered to RedRover Relief Urgent Care grantees as a special “add-on,” thanks to a generous $10,000 sponsorship from Tito’s Handmade Vodka, the Vodka for Dog People. This sponsorship came to fruition because RedRover and Tito’s share the same belief in supporting pets and preserving the human-animal bond.

The RedRover Relief Urgent Care grant program provides grants, resources, and emotional support to pet parents facing economic hardship when their pets need emergency veterinary care. Approximately 40% of Urgent Care grantees’ pets have not been spayed or neutered because the costs are often out of reach.

By combining a spay/neuter surgery with an existing surgery (when possible), the pet will avoid being under anesthesia multiple times, recovery times are combined, and the costs may be less.

According to the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), spaying and neutering pets have health and behavioral benefits for both the pet and other animals in the household, including:

• Eliminated risk of pyometra, a potentially fatal infection of the uterus
• Decreased risk of uterine, mammary, ovarian, and testicular cancer
• Eliminated risk of pregnancy, which helps control overpopulation
• Decreased spraying and urine-marking behavior
• Limited roaming and escape behavior
• Reduction of unwanted behaviors like yowling, mounting, and aggression
• Increased average lifespan

“We’re thrilled to support RedRover and their incredible work bringing quality and compassionate pet care to communities across the nation,” said Beth Bellanti, Program Director of Tito’s Vodka for Dog People program. “It’s inspiring to see the impact they’re making, and we’re excited to be part of their journey.”

RedRover President and CEO Katie Campbell said, “Tito’s generous sponsorship of spay/neuter surgeries for our Urgent Care grantees is a dream come true! We know that costs are an issue for our grantees, so this sponsorship eliminates that barrier, while also reducing the risk of certain cancers, and eliminating the risk of pyometra, which can often be fatal.”

This added service to Urgent Care grantees will be available until funds are expended.
