Spay Days
If you have a financial need for low-cost spay/neuter services for your family cat, we can help you help them! In partnership with Maddie’s Fund we offer free spay/neuter services for qualifying companion cats in Dane County. To qualify you must have a Wisconsin Forward or Quest card and bring that along with a driver’s license or other photo ID at the time of appointment. There is a six cat limit per household per year. If you do not qualify for free services, but have a financial need for low-cost spay/neuter services we can still help. The cost for each cat is $30 by cash or check. All companion cat packages include an FVRCP vaccine.
Through Maddie’s Fund Spay/Neuter Project companion cat surgeries may also be scheduled through two other non-profit animal rescues or at participating private veterinary hospitals in Dane County.

Shelter Outreach Services (SOS)
Our SOS program is designed to help other shelters and rescue groups meet their spay/neuter needs. SOS provides a veterinarian, a veterinary technician and all the necessary equipment to host a spay/neuter clinic. Each participating group is required to provide a location, volunteers and patients. Assistance is available in selecting a location as well as training for volunteers. Availability is currently limited but please feel free to contact us for more information.
