Every year, the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control teams up with local veterinarians to put on several rabies clinics.
Rabies is not a widespread problem, but in 2009 there were 166
cases of rabies confirmed in animals in South Carolina. Unfortunately that number rose by 4 from the previous year. The positive rabies cases included 81 raccoons, 34 foxes, 34 skunks, 10 bats, 3 cats, 1 dog, 2 cows and 1 opossum, according to the SCDHEC website.
The South Carolina Rabies Control Act requires that all dogs and cats have a current rabies vaccination. So these clinics help everyone make sure that their pet is protected.
"Veterinarians will conduct special reduced-cost rabies clinics to vaccinate pet cats and dogs against the fatal disease," said Sue Ferguson of DHEC's Bureau of Environmental Health. "Vaccinations will cost $3 each at the clinics."
According to Ferguson, more than 38,000 pets were vaccinated against rabies during the special clinics statewide last year. That's 5,000 more vaccinations than in 2008!
Here is the schedule for this year's Rabies Clinics:

Honestly, doesn't it feel like we just changed our clocks and got to enjoy that extra hour of sleep?
But here it is again -- the dreaded time in which we all forward our clocks before we go to bed and sacrifice one hour of our beauty sleep.
I will admit that I'm glad they have lengthened the time between setting your clocks ahead and rolling them back. I really love having the extra daylight when the fall rolls around. And this year it will be lighter in the evening sooner than in years past.
So tonight, make sure that you have forwarded at least your alarm so that you won't be late if you have somewhere to be Sunday morning. I'm sure there will be a few empty seats in church tomorrow for early service -- maybe they can make a later service :)
