We’re here this weekend (11/8-11/9) doing our last hip to snip Clinic in 2025. We may have a few waitlisted spots for Dogs tomorrow. We for sure have spots for male cats on Sunday. If you can make Sunday work for your male cat, please email [email protected]. Put your name, your cat’s name and your cell phone. If you put ‘male cat’ in the subject, that would be fantastic. We will confirm via text if we have a spot.  There likely will not be any confirms today due to travel.

Thank you, we appreciate you wanting to get your pets fixed. We know there are a lot of people waiting for spots. There are thousands of unaltered animals in the four counties and we really are doing the best we can.

Here’s now to get registered -

Email [email protected] with
*Your name
*Pet name or pets names

**Cellphone (fastest way to get a spot)
*It’s $20 per dog/$15 per cat (includes vaccines) for residents Perry, Breathitt, Letcher and Knott with income BELOW $40,000 per year.

This grant was given to help with larger dog spay/neuter to help decrease the numbers of larger dogs being born and ending up in the shelter. We fix some smaller dogs but mostly larger. Only 20 female cat spots each clinic so they fill up fast

Hope this info helps.

Another Hip to Snip clinic in the books. Altered were 25 dogs and 48 cats. So many litters prevented. Thank you for the commitment you all showed whether it is the vet and vet tech, the volunteers, the community - it all matters. Thank you to Banfield Foundation for funding the grant and Starfish Animal Rescue for providing the hotel, meals etc. Special hero award goes to Noah’s Ark Manchester and London who provided a necessary supply that enabled us to complete all of the cat surgeries today. You have no idea how grateful we are for your assist. We know there are still so many animals in need of spay/neuter - we are doing our best.
