It’s hip to SNyP!

We offer an affordable spay-neuter clinic for dogs and cats at the SPCA of Northern Nevada Adoption Center. This clinic is open to income-qualified households of $60,000 or less in Northern Nevada. Spaying and neutering pets is important to help mitigate pet overpopulation, prevent unwanted pregnancies, and help your pet live a longer, healthier life! 

Appointments are available one month at a time and will be made available on May 2nd at 8am, for appointments during June 2024. If you do not see an available date for your pet’s species and weight, this does indicate those appointments are full. 

Appointments are non-refundable, non-transferable, and cannot be rescheduled. Payment is due in full at the time the appointment is scheduled. 

**We do not accept American Express.
