  • Our program serves Shelby, County, KY residents ONLY.
  • CatSnip clinics are for Outdoor Cats only, NO indoor permitted.
  • All cats will come to the clinic in OUR live catch release traps only, that WE issue to you. You cannot bring cats in your own traps, or carriers or wire cages. If you come to the clinic in any cage other than what we issue out, you will be turned away. The other cages present trip hazards and are very dangerous to sedate a cat safely. Our liability insurance requires this standard of operation in order to have coverage.
  • Each person is charged a $10 deposit per trap issued. This is payed when you reserve the trap(s). The fee will be credited to the amount you owe for services which is due when you pick up the cat(s) from surgery. If we owe you a refund we will give you a cash refund on Monday during trap return.​
  • All cats will be ear tipped, this is done while the cat is under sedation. No exceptions.
  •  No cat(s) can come to the clinic in trunks of cars or open bed pickup trucks.
  • All patrons will be charged $40 per cat. For this fee each cat is receiving: Spay/Neuter, FVRCP/Distemper Vaccine, Rabies Vaccine (age appropriate), Flea Treatment, 3 Anti Pain Medications, Ear Cleaning and TX, Antibiotic Shot, Dissolvable Suture (if female), ear tip and tattoo. Our cost per cat is $85.00 so we fundraise to keep our cost affordable to YOU! 
  • We limit the number of cats that come to each clinic. If space is limited due to too many people registering, each registrant will only be allowed up to a maximum of 5 traps.
  • If you need assistance with trapping, please comment on the form below. We are very limited with trappers and may not be able to assist.
