Spay Neuter Programs

 

 

Sterilization is the most humane way to reduce the number of unwanted puppies and kittens born each day. Millions of unwanted animals die unnecessarily each year. Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control offers three (3) spay/neuter programs for pets of Palm Beach County residents. Proof of residency and program qualifications are required.

SPAY SHUTTLE MOBILE SPAY/NEUTER PROGRAM

The Spay Shuttle is a mobile veterinary clinic for pet owners residing in Palm Beach County. Pet surgeries are completed in the morning and animals are released to owners that same afternoon. The cost is $40 for cats, $50 for dogs to include the surgery, rabies vaccination, license tag and microchip. With proof of public assistance, the fee is waived.

The Spay Shuttle currently operates Monday through Friday each week in the parking lot at Animal Care and Control. Please call 561-233-SPAY (7729) for information or 561-233-1261 to leave your name, telephone number, breed and sex of your dog or cat for an appointment. By leaving your name, you will automatically be placed on a waiting list. You do not have to call any further. When new appointments are available, you will receive a call. Please be patient. Space is limited and appointments are not immediately available. The average wait for the Spay Shuttle may be several months.

Spay Shuttle

If you currently have a scheduled appointment you must arrive no later than 8 a.m. or your slot will be given to someone else. If you do not have an appointment, you may stand in line in the event that someone does not arrive for their scheduled appointment. If this occurs, only an animal fitting the same size and sex can be accepted in its place. Owners of pets who do not arrive on time for pet-pickup, must pay impoundment or late fees from the main shelter on Belvedere Road.
