Spay/Neuter Assistance Request

Spay & Neuter Assistance

If you need help with spay/neuter or trap-neuter-return (TNR), please complete the form below. Due to very high demand, our volunteers are only handling limited number of requests, mostly from Alameda and Oakland. For requests from San Leandro, Hayward, and Castro Valley, we may be able to provide spay/neuter appointments but no in-person support. Please also see how we can help you and other low-cost veterinary resources.

Please watch this brief video on TNR before continuing.

Help You Need
We receive many more requests than we can possibly respond to, so the more you can do yourself, the more likely that we can help you.
Please watch the brief video on TNR at the top of this page before continuing.
Cats that are not friendly with strangers must be captured using a humane trap, like below.
Do you need to borrow one or more traps?*
- Yes
- No, the cats are my pets or cats I rescued and brought indoors
- No, I already have access to humane traps
- No, I or a stranger can easily pick the cats up and put them in a carrier
How many secure hard plastic or cloth carriers do you have? Cardboard carriers and cages are not acceptable.*
Plan on putting one cat per carrier and covering it with a towel.
How many traps do you have?*
Can you do the trapping if provided instruction and guidance?*
- Yes
- No
- Maybe
Do you need spay/neuter appointments?*
- Yes
- No
What days of the week are you able to bring the cats to a clinic for surgery?*
- Select All
- Sunday
- Monday
- Tuesday
- Wednesday
- Thursday
- Friday
- Saturday
Drop off is generally first thing in the morning and pick up in the late afternoon, but it varies clinic to clinic. You should plan to have the cat trapped by 9pm the night before surgery.
Do you want to be on standby for last minute openings?
- Yes
- No
We can notify you by 10pm the night before.
Can you transport the cats to and from their spay/neuter surgery?*
- Yes
- No
Do you have a safe place to keep the cats in their traps overnight before surgery and afterward for recovery?*
- Yes
- No
A garage, shed, or any small room that can be closed off will do. Unsocialized cats will remain in their traps during the entire recovery period.
Please explain any of your "No" answers.
Is there anything else we should know about the situation?
How did you hear about us?*
