Spay/Neuter at Cleveland APL

Been "adopted" by the cat outside? Feral and free-roaming cats are the largest contributors to the cat overpopulation crisis.

The Cleveland APL is committed to ending this developing tragedy and has a new TNR program to assist caretakers of feral (unsocialized, outdoor) cats. If you are feeding a cat outside, we invite you to be part of the overpopulation solution and take advantage of APL services! Through the Animal Welfare Clinic, the APL offers the following services for feral cats and their caretakers:

Spay/Neuter Services
Feral and homeless cat appointments are $25 for cats and $15 for kittens (8 - 16 weeks). The fee includes:

Spay or neuter surgery
Ear-tipping
Rabies vaccine
FVRCP vaccine
Felv/FIV SNAP testing is available upon request for $30
Cleveland Residents Can Help Stray Cats for $10 >>
Trapping Education and Trap Loan Program

Humane traps are available to APL clients for a non-refundable fee of $5 per week, per trap. A fully refundable $20 deposit is collected when the trap is issued. Our TNR Services Coordinator will provide how-to demonstrations and written instructions on how to successfully and humanely trap feral cats. How-to workshops may be coordinated for groups of caretakers and other interested parties free of charge at the Cleveland APL.
