To keep your pets safe, happy, and healthy! This procedure helps prevent certain cancers and infections, avoids the high cost of caring for litters. It can help prevent bad behavior like running away from home to look for a mate, marking or spraying indoors and some aggression issues.
Animals must be a minimum of 8 weeks and no older than 5 years of age to be eligible for spay or neuter surgery.
We highly recommend that puppies and kittens are vaccinated for Distemper and Parvo prior to surgery. Please bring your petโs vaccination records with you at time of drop-off.
We also highly recommend your adult animal be vaccinated prior to surgery. We can give vaccinations at the time of surgery for a fee. Please bring your petโs vaccination records with you at time of drop-off.
We are designed to accept healthy animals for surgeries. If your pet has any underlying health problems, the surgery should be performed at a full-service vet clinic.
If your pet has been sick lately, it is better to reschedule the appointment than to have the surgery.
If your pet is currently presenting with symptoms of illness or has been diagnosed with a contagious disease, please do not bring them to the Shelter. Instead, please visit your regular veterinarian.
