Feral & Free-Roaming Cat Spay/Neuter Program

NEWS & EVENTS:

TOTAL spays/neuters since 2007: 9,300!

_________________________________________________________________________________

Feral cats have been identified as the number one factor in our city's high cat euthanasia rate. The Austin Humane Society is committed to reducing this high euthanasia by reducing the number of homeless cats in our community through an aggressive Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) program that is free to the public.

This community program embraces the Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) method of feral cat population control. TNR works! It is humane, non-lethal, effective in eliminating colonies, and is more reflective of a caring society. AHS provides a free and public spay/neuter program for Travis, Williamson, Bastrop and surrounding counties.

FREE Feral Cat Spay/Neuter clinics are conducted at least twice weekly at the Austin Humane Society and reservations are required. All cats receive their rabies vaccinations, flea control, deworming, earmite treatment and pain control FREE of charge. Optional FIV/FeLV testing and other vaccinations are available at low cost.

Please download the Program Policies (below) for more detailed information.

Appointments can be set up via email by contacting Leticia Stivers at LStivers@AustinHumaneSociety.org 512-968-7131 or Neenah Whitehead at NWhitehead@AustinHumaneSociety.org 512-646-7387 x100.

A little history of our new program: On Friday, March 2, 2007, AHS launched the Feral Cat Spay/Neuter Clinic at our facility on 124 West Anderson Lane. Thanks in part to the generous PetSmart Charities and ASPCA Mission Orange grants, the clinic offers sterilization and ear tipping of feral cats, along with a general exam, vaccinations and flea preventative.
