Meaningful Work. Humane Community
Finances are the biggest single thing that dictate how much care an animal gets or doesn't get. We have found pet guardians want to spay/neuter their pets but simply cannot afford the cost.
We are dedicated to stepping up our efforts in addressing this issue by referring applicants to low cost spay/neuter services within Monterey County.


Trap+Neuter+Release
Our mission is to protect and improve feral cats' lives through (TNR) Trap-Neuter-Return. In a TNR program, community cats are humanely trapped, then neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and eartipped before being returned to their outdoor homes.
Engaging with our community to develop and build a team of dedicated trappers/caregivers that focus on "their" neighborhood cats!
Teaching the basics of trapping
Loaning traps
Providing transportation

Community Cat Vouchers
Love cats? Then fix them!
Free Spay/Neuter for Community Cats
For a limited time we are able to offer vouchers that cover the service fee for community cats free roaming or pet cats. The voucher covers the cost of spay/neuter, rabies and ear tip if feral. Any additional services (vaccinations, microchips etc) are the responsibility of the person presenting the voucher and are due at time of service.
Vouchers are valid only at The Spca for Monterey County.
A separate voucher is required for each cat.
