Feline Low Cost Spay and Neuter Program
About: In October 2022, we started a Feline Low Cost Spay and Neuter Program to help reduce the overpopulation of cats in our area, provide resources for individuals who cannot afford vetting costs, as well as promoting better health for cats in our community. We rely on grants, community donations, and fundraisers to fund this program. As funds and vet availability is available we will set-up clinics and notify of upcoming clinics via our email list and this webpage. We try and announce an event on the first of the month if we are able to schedule a clinic that month.
Why it's important:
- Help reduce the overabundance of cats in our community
- Improves health and longevity of cats
- Can improve undesirable behaviors
- Microchipping helps animals find their homes quicker if they go missing
- Improves our capability of helping as we always have a waitlist for cats
Statistics of our Program:
- Number of event hosted: 21
- Number of cats fixed: 447
Update April 2026:
Due to a change in veterinary availability, our current clinic veterinarian will be unavailable until fall/winter. Because of this, we will be pausing our Low Cost Spay & Neuter Program until she is able to return.
We know how important this program is to our community, and this was not an easy decision. These clinics have helped many families access affordable care while also working to reduce cat overpopulation, and we are incredibly grateful for the support they’ve received.
While our clinics are paused, we are:
-Exploring alternative partnerships and opportunities
-Looking into additional resources we may be able to offer
-Continuing to prioritize solutions that support our community
We will share updates as soon as we have more information.
In the Meantime: We strongly encourage community members to take advantage of other low-cost spay and neuter programs in the area (listed at the bottom of this page)
We truly appreciate your patience and understanding as we navigate this temporary pause. Our goal remains the same: to support both pets and the people who love them.
Thank you for being part of our community

The details:
Pope County Humane Society’s Low Cost Spay & Neuter Clinics are offered as a community service to support individuals experiencing financial hardship and to help reduce cat overpopulation. We strive to host 1–2 clinics per month, as funding and veterinary availability allow. Due to high demand and limited space, clinics frequently sell out quickly, and alternative resources should be explored if you are unable to secure a ticket.
Please Read Before Purchasing Tickets
Our low cost spay and neuter clinics are a limited-capacity, community-funded program and tickets sell out quickly, often within an hour of being posted. Tickets are non-refundable, non-transferable, and must match your cat’s gender. We do not maintain a waitlist. If you are unable to bring your cat to the clinic for any reason, your ticket purchase will be considered a donation and helps support future clinics. We strongly encourage reviewing the Other Resources section at the bottom of this page and contacting your local veterinarian for additional spay/neuter options.
Cats cannot have ringworm, fleas, or lice. These are highly contagious and we want to protect the cats in clinic as well as shelter animals.
Pricing & Ticket Policy
- $75 per cat
- Tickets are valid for one cat only, are non-transferable, and non-refundable.
- If you are unable to bring your cat to the clinic for any reason, your ticket purchase will be considered a donation and will go directly toward supporting this low cost spay and neuter program.
Ticket & Gender Policy
- Tickets must match the cat’s gender.
- There is a $100 fee for cats that do not match the gender of the ticket purchased.
- If you are unsure of your cat’s gender, please contact us before purchasing a ticket:
- Email: pchsmnstaff@gmail.com
- Or send us a message on Facebook — we will try to assist when possible.
Feral Cat Tickets
- Feral cat tickets are designated for feral cats only.
- A feral cat is one that cannot be safely handled.
- If you are able to handle your cat, they are not considered feral and a standard cat ticket must be purchased.
- These tickets exist because feral cats are often difficult to safely sex prior to surgery.
Clinic Availability & Program Purpose
- We aim to host 1–2 low cost spay and neuter clinics per month, as funding and veterinary availability allow.
- This is a community-based program provided by Pope County Humane Society to:
- Support individuals experiencing financial hardship

- Clinics often sell out within an hour of being posted.
- Due to demand:
- We do not have a waitlist
