Spay/neuter vouchers can be purchased in person at the Abilene Animal Shelter during normal business hours and are redeemable for dog and cat spay/neuter surgeries. Partnering vets accept our vouchers to do dog or cat spay/neuter surgeries and include 24 hours of pain medication for the dog or cat.

• According to the ASPCA, animals that are spayed/neutered are less likely to stray since their instinct to mate is eliminated.

• There are also several health benefits associated with spaying/neutering your pet, including significantly reduced chance of developing certain cancers, uterine infections and prostrate problems.

• Most importantly, spaying/neutering prevents additional puppies and kittens from ending up on our streets and in our shelter, which is the number one factor contributing to lower euthanasia rates in a community.

Once you have purchased your voucher, you will call one of the participating vets to make your appointment. All animals must have proof of rabies vaccination to be eligible for surgery. A rabies vaccine can be added at the time of surgery for an additional fee of $15. Vouchers expire 60 days from the date of purchase.

Vouchers cover a standard spay/neuter surgery for a dog or cat with no complications. Clients are advised that any additional costs that may arise from surgery complications will be at the owners’ expense.

Examples of additional costs include males whose testicles have failed to drop, females that are in heat or pregnant at the time of surgery.
