Spay ASAP Spay/Neuter Clinics for Cats

In an effort to stem the tide of homeless and unwanted cats and kittens in the Monadnock Region, the Monadnock Humane Society began hosting Spay ASAP clinics in the fall of 2006.

Spay ASAP, Inc., a mobile, low-cost spay/neuter clinic headed by Dr. Sara White, provides same-day spay and neuter services to underserved animal populations in New Hampshire and Vermont.

Monadnock Humane Society is proud to collaborate with Spay ASAP to offer affordable sterilization services to cat guardians who do not have a veterinarian of their own or can not otherwise afford to spay or neuter their cats.

Cats brought to the clinic are given a basic exam, after which they are spayed (females) or neutered (males) and given distemper complex and rabies vaccines as appropriate. Cats will also have their ears cleaned, nails trimmed, and coats checked for fleas.

The cost is $45 for male cats and $50 for female cats.

Flea and ear mite treatments are available for an additional $5 each per cat.

This clinic is open to all healthy cats, including:

• Pregnant cats

• Cats in heat

• Feral cats

• Kittens at least 8 weeks of age

A $25 non-refundable deposit is required to reserve a spot in the clinic. You can register three ways:

1. In person at the MHS Customer Service Desk, Wednesday thru Sunday, 12-6 PM

2. By phone with a credit card. Call 352-9011 extension 101.

3. By mail with a check for $25 per cat payable to MHS, 101 West Swanzey Road, Swanzey, NH 03446. Be sure to include your name, mailing address, phone number, your cat’s name and gender, and which clinic you would like to register for.

Once you register, you will receive a confirmation form that will tell you the clinic date, where to bring your cat, and important pre-surgical instructions.

After the Clinic

Your cat must be picked up and taken home the same day as the clinic. You will be given a post-surgical care sheet that details what procedures and vaccines your cat received and how to keep your cat comfortable as s/he recovers.

Down the Road

It is very important that you establish a relationship with a full-service veterinary clinic for vaccination boosters and ongoing care for your cat. Regular preventative care is the best way to keep your cat healthy, so you can enjoy a long, happy life with your feline companion.
