Feral Cats

Feral cats are not accustomed to contact with people and are typically too fearful and wild to be handled. Feral cats do not easily adapt or may never adapt to living as pets in close contact with people. However, there are many things you can do to help improve the health and quality of life of feral cats. Trap-Neuter-Return Programs humanely trap feral cats in order to vaccinate and have the animal spayed or neutered. The cat is vaccinated and ear-tipped (for easy identification from a distance) during the same visit. The healthy and altered cat is now free to live out its natural life with a colony caretaker while not producing more feral cats.

Pets Alive accepts feral cats without appointments. They may be brought in at any time Tuesday through Thursday. They will be kept in the clinic overnight to ensure at least one night of recovery indoors. Depending on what time they are dropped off and the number of surgeries that day, they may need to stay two nights.

Feral cats experience a great deal of trauma and stress from being trapped. To ensure their safety, all feral cats are required to be in humane live traps. This is for the safety of the cat and our staff. No exceptions will be made.

Traps are available to be checked out for a deposit of $50 via check. Once the cat is released and the trap brought back, the deposit check is given back to the owner.

The cost to spay or neuter a feral cat is $33 and includes rabies vaccination and ear tipping.
