Spaying or neutering your pet is one of the most important steps you can take for their health and well-being. Altering pets before maturity – around 4-6 months of age or before a female’s first heat – helps prevent unwanted litters while also reducing the risk of serious health issues and certain negative behaviors.

 

The Placer SPCA offers on-site spay and neuter services for Placer County-owned dogs and cats by appointment only. Please complete and submit the inquiry form below, and a member of our team will respond within 48 hours to discuss your pet’s needs and available appointments.

Reducing Pet Overpopulation

 

Spaying and neutering remain the most effective ways to reduce the number of homeless pets in our community. During the COVID-19 pandemic, millions of spay and neuter surgeries across the country were delayed or missed, and animal shelters are still feeling the ripple effects today.

 

At the Placer SPCA, we are committed to being part of the solution. Every adoptable dog and cat in our care is spayed or neutered before going home with their new family, helping ensure that each adoption prevents future litters and reduces the number of animals entering shelters.

 

Through the services provided at the Placer SPCA Veterinary and Foster Care Center, along with the support of our donors, volunteers, and community partners, we are expanding access to veterinary care and resources that support responsible pet ownership.

 

Together, we are working toward a future where fewer animals experience homelessness and more pets can stay safe, healthy, and with the families who love them.
