 |
Saturday, February 4 for Pit Bull Puppies and Sunday, February 5 for Female Cats
Each year, through the generosity of donors, the MSPCA at Nevins Farm hosts a low cost Spay-Neuter clinic for cats & dogs in honor of Spay Day. Thanks to the many volunteer veterinarians and vet techs who offer up their time, we’re able to offer a limited number of surgery appointments to those with financial need.

basis, so don’t delay.
$10 Cat Neuters During February
Tuesday – Friday, No Appointment Needed!
February is Spay-Neuter Month at the MSPCA, and we’re celebrating by offering cat neuter surgeries for just $10! With easy morning drop-offs and same-day pick-up, we’re taking away all of the excuses. No appointment is needed, just bring your male cat in to the Noble Family Adoption Center any Tuesday through Friday beginning February 1st, and we’ll neuter & vaccinate him the same day!
Think your male cat isn’t contributing to the cat overpopulation? Even if your male cat slips out just once per month and impregnates just one female, he could be responsible for over 70 kittens a year, who go on to breed even more litters! Click here to read more about the importance of spay-neuter for cats.
Thanks to our volunteers and generous donors who are subsidizing this effort. If you’d like to contribute to help us spay even more animals, click here. Help us spread the word by downloading a flyer and sharing with friends, family, co-workers!
