Public clients who come to us without reservations will be admitted on a first come first serve basis.

Community cats will have their ears tipped, no exceptions. This is a universal indication to other TNR participants that this cat has already been altered and that the cat, if trapped, should be released.

Community cats will also receive a rabies vaccination at no additional charge.

Surgery will be performed as soon as possible, dependent upon the time the animal arrives at the clinic and our surgery load.

Community cats will stay the night after their surgery in the clinic to give them time to rest and remain quiet. You may opt to pick up the same day if you have a warm safe place to keep them overnight and our surgery allows us to perform their surgery early enough.

Our staff will call you to let you know when to pick up trapped cat and taken to their natural habitat and released.
