Trap - Neuter & Return

A community cat is a general term that includes any unowned cat.
These cats may be unsocialized or friendly, both can thrive in the community.
These cats have been born outside or may be lost or an abandoned pet.
Some community cats are routinely fed by community members & consider their community their home.

Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a program that has been adapted worldwide.
It is a humane & effective approach in which community cats are trapped, vaccinated, sterilized & receive an identifying clip on the left ear.
They are then returned to their trap location.

The TNR programs help a colony’s size remain stable & over time, gradually decrease the colony’s population.
TNR addresses community concerns with growing stray populations, abandoned kittens & injured animals within their community.
Cats will be healthier & co-exist more peacefully.

What is a transportation clinic?
AlterClinic offers transportation to our clinic for low-cost spay/neuter services to members of surrounding counties.
These community members may not be able to transport their pet to the clinic for any number of reasons.
We meet at a pre-determined location to pick up the scheduled animals & then bring them back to our clinic where they receive their surgery.
We then bring the animals back to the same location to have their owners pick them up later that same day.

How do I schedule a pet for a transportation clinic?
All scheduling must be done by calling into our clinic at (234) 804-3064.
We will take down your information and your pets information and put them on our transport list for the transportation date requested.
The week before the scheduled transport, our clinic coordinator will call to get the appointments scheduled.

What services are available during these clinics?
Transport is available for spay/neuter appointments only at this time.
While a pet is at our clinic for spay/neuter, we can perform other services such as vaccinations, microchipping, and SNAP combo testing.
We are unable to offer dental services for our transportation clients at this time.

Are there any additional fees?
In addition to the cost of surgery and services being performed, we charge a $5.00 transportation fee per pet to cover our expenses.

What time is drop-off and pick-up?
Owners will drop their pets off with us at 7:00AM on the date of transport and pick them up that same day at 5:00 pm.

Can I schedule trapped cats for transport?
Yes, we can schedule trapped cats for our transportation clinics as well.
