If You Filled Out the Online Interest Form*
Thank you! This lets us know you are interested in spay/neuter for your pet. We will reach out to help complete your registration. Because of the high number of requests, it may take a few days to a week or more to hear from us.

Please keep in mind we are a volunteer team and may be trapping for TNR, driving to vet clinics an hour or more away, transporting adoptable cats, conducting adoption interviews, picking up pallets of pet food (sometimes 6+ hours away), and replying to messages in between. We are unable to take calls, but we will reply to text messages as soon as we can give them our attention!

We know how important spay/neuter is to pets and pet owners in our community — it’s important to us too! Thank you for your patience and for helping make this event possible. ❤️🙏
