Spay and Neuter Program

---

• You must live in Toms River or a nearby community that does not have its own TNR program available.
• When appointments are limited, Toms River residents will be a priority. Eligible communities may change due to TNR program availability and other criteria. Please call or email us for current community eligibility.
• The cat that you need to have altered is a feral or stray community cat that is unowned, and at least 3 months old (males)/4 months old (females).
• You must have a quiet place for the cat to recover, separate from any personal pets.
• You must be able to drop off and pick up the cat from the clinic.
• You must use a trap or hard carrier for transporting the cat to and from the clinic. No soft carriers allowed (for everyone's safety).
• You must be able to trap the cat the day before your appointment and ensure they do not eat after 8 pm.
• You must be able to pay the $25 per cat prior to receiving a spay/neuter code.
• Please note there may be additional charges payable directly to the clinic if there are complications, i.e., cryptorchid or pregnancy. 

1. Use  the "Contact Us" section of our home page, email us at saverescuespayneuter@gmail.com, or call us at (732) 281-8652. Volunteers are in daily to check messages and return calls/emails.
2. A  volunteer will ask you for the cat's description, sex, and to provide a name for the cat for the purpose of identification at the clinic, as well as when you plan to trap.
3. Available dates will be given to you for you to choose from.
4. The volunteer will organize payment with you ($25 per cat).
5. Once you have made payment, you will receive a code and which veterinarian you will take the cat to, along with drop off and pick up information.

• If  you do not have a humane trap of your own, S.A.V.E.  will lend you one.
• There is a cash deposit of $25, which will be refunded to you once the trap is cleaned and returned.
• Traps are loaned out for a maximum of 7 days at a time.
• We also will lend out a crate for recovery, for a cash deposit of $25, which will be refunded once the crate is cleaned and returned (maximum of 7 days).
• All traps and crates must be kept in a shed or garage when not being used.
• Traps should be hosed and washed with detergent between trappings, and before returned. Please do not use bleach! 
• Written trapping instructions will be provided when traps are borrowed. This includes trap cleaning instructions and your responsiblity in reference to the trap. Our volunteer will answer any additional questions you may have.
