![]() Spay & Neuter Services We offer affordable spay neuter surgery for dogs and cats from four months to five years old and rabbits from six months to five years old. (Rabbits must weigh 3.5 pounds.) All surgeries include a nail trim and we offer Elizabethan collars and HomeAgain microchips (microchips are discounted if purchased at the time of surgery, $25) upon request for an additional fee.
Current Pricing Please note that additional charges may apply if your animal is pregnant, in heat, cryptorchid, or obese. Some of these conditions are not apparent until the time of surgery.
If you are dropping off an animal that is not yours, the guardian will need to fill out the Spay/Neuter Surgery Release form. Please provide this document to staff for admittance of your pet in addition to proper documentation of vaccinations. For your pet’s protection, all animals MUST be current on vaccines before a surgery appointment can be made. Homeless/Feral Cat Services What is TNR (Trap, Neuter, Return)? Cats are humanely trapped, taken to shelters or veterinary clinics where they are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and have their ears tipped/notched so they can be identified as part of a managed colony. Only healthy cats are placed back in their colony so there is not a health risk to other cats and animals. Sterilization helps make cats better community citizens; colonies gradually diminish in size. By reducing or eliminating yowling associated with mating, fighting and wandering, TNR makes colonies more stable, decreases the number of newcomers and improves the health of the cats. For more information about homeless/feral cats, visit our the feral cat web page HSSV Subsidized Feral Fix Program In order to further our mission here at HSSV, “To save and enhance lives”, we are offering a program that is available to anyone caring for a feral cat or kitten(s). This program is subsidized by HSSV in order to make the costs lower for caregivers and more importantly, to be able to offer TNR for all feral cats, regardless of where they reside. The surgery will include the spay or neuter, a FVRCP (distemper) and a rabies vaccine and a mandatory tip/notch of the ear (for identification).
We do offer additional services at the time of surgery, by request, for homeless/feral cats: Combo test (FeLV/FIV) - $45 If you think you may have a sick cat in your colony, it is recommended to test for FeLV and FIV to prevent these diseases from being spread throughout the colony. Flea preventative treatment - $5 HomeAgain Microchip (includes registration) - FREE The microchip is registered for the life of the cat. If a cat in your colony is found and turned in to a shelter, and the cat has a registered microchip, you will be notified so you can help get the cat back to its colony. Tape Worm Treatment- $10 All cats must be brought in a humane trap and only one cat per trap. An appointment must be made in advance for all TNR surgeries.
