Spay and Neutering Services

Spay & neuter appointments are for owned pets and community cats.

We offer pediatric spay/neuter starting at 8 weeks of age. However, we recommend consulting your regular veterinarian before scheduling to determine the best time for your pet’s sterilization.

Spay/neuter appointments are available for both owned and community cats. A $50 deposit is required to schedule an appointment for an owned pet (payment will be requested after entering your information in the online scheduling form). Cancellations must be made at least 48 hours in advance to receive a refund of the deposit.
