UKIAH, CA., 1/31/26 – Mendocino Animal Care Services will partner with Animal Balance to host a high-volume spay and neuter clinic March 6–8, with appointments available for dogs and cats on all three days in the Ukiah area.
Animal Balance is a nonprofit that works with shelters and communities to reduce pet overpopulation through large-scale, low-cost spay and neuter services.
Appointments cost $122 per animal and must be paid at the time of booking; fees are nonrefundable. At this time, only one animal per household may be scheduled. Dogs over 90 pounds and flat-faced breeds are not eligible for this clinic.
Spay and neuter clinics help reduce unwanted litters, ease overcrowding in local shelters, and improve long-term animal health and welfare across the county.
Appointments are first-come, first-served. To book or be added to a waitlist for a future clinic, call (707) 463-4782. Location information will be provided after appointments are secured.
Dear People, Some time back the Spay and Neuter service was at “No Cost”. I understand how that was probably a major drain on County funds however, I and most people whom I talk to who are feeding feral animals (about a dozen cats at my Potter Valley location) can hardly afford the food. I could not pay $122.00 for even 1 procedure. It sounds like not feeding or otherwise caring for the little creatures is the only option, which doesn’t sound right to me. Larry Robbins
What happened to the $400,000 the county received for spay and neuter? Why is that not making procedures free for such situations as feral cat colonies?
Stephanie. They spent it on dinners at the Broiler. !
