Dear Editor, Snip and Tuck, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation that raises the much-needed funds for spaying and neutering the pets of low-income veterans, low income seniors and anyone who otherwise can’t afford it. Why? After working with a local non-profit, I came to realize just how many dumped, abandoned, unwanted and abused dogs and cats there are that are filling our rescues and shelters. I felt that something really big needed to happen. Upon researching this problem to learn all I could, I found out that because of one unspayed cat, up to 120,000 kittens can be born…

Dear Editor, Has it ever occurred to many folks, that if not for ignorance run wild, the democraps would never be carrying on and doing the unthinkable things they’re doing related to perfectly good and required phone calls, etc. and the issues related to this scam of impeachment with the way they are handling it against President Trump?

Dear Editor, Where are all the young adults? I cannot help but notice the deteriorating number of young adults, age 18- to , in our community. Over the last two years, I have decided to spend some time finding out why they are leaving. Their responses have painted a grim image of hopelessness, as they have been unable to find their place in a town that seems set on growing old instead of growing young. Kingman is being robbed of the influence of these dynamic world-changers as they continue to vanish because they are simply being ignored. For nearly two…

Dear Editor, Are you aware that a local pharmacy, in Kingman, changed their opioid prescribing policy on August 19? The new policy limits prescriptions to 90 pills/patient/month. I was receiving 120/month for the past two years. I found out about the policy change when I went to pick up my prescription on Friday, September 6. I was told at the pickup window and given the option of either taking the 90 or having scrip filled elsewhere. Since it was a Friday afternoon, I knew my doctor’s office would be extremely busy, but I called anyway to try and get them…
