Save the Spay / Neuter Stamps!!!

I know a lot of you really adore the adorable faces and important message of the Spay/Neuter stamps! I know I do! :D

Well, after a full year of carrying them, the United States Postal Service (USPS) is no longer selling the terrific spay/neuter stamps and has decided not to reproduce them. :(

Please write to the USPS and encourage them to continue production and distribution of these important educational stamps! Reports suggest that the USPS has received an overwhelming amount of positive feedback regarding the popular stamps and, if enough people voice this opinion, there is a chance they will keep making them available. :) :) :)

I am writing my letter tonight and sending it out tomorrow! I hope many of you can do the same!!!

You can still buy them on line. I just ordered 6 sheets.

Oooh, good! However, I think that they will be stopping production so they aren't always going to be available online.

I'm going to write one today Kate!!
Thanks for the info!!:)

:( why would they stop doing these stamps? They are so important in messagevice, not to mention too cute! I received few letters with these stamps and they are just something else :)

They are no longer in print. The www.USPS.com site doesn't have them any longer. I bought 4 sheets and will use them for the Christmas card exchange.

Here is a form to fill out on line for our request to bring them back. I used the drop down menu for "FEEDBACK" and then the next drop down for "SUGGESTIONS"
Can't hurt to try this.
Katz

Thanks Katz. This is even easier than writing a letter! :)

PLEASE bring back the Neuter or Spay stamps. This is such an important
message. These animals need all the help they can get. And if one
stamp
can make a difference, that is one life saved.
Thank you.

I got this same response via e-mail. I will write a letter to this other address on Monday - I don't want my opinoin to get lost in the shuffle just because I misdirected it! And if they heard from me already, well then, they can just hear it one more time!
