Surgery Information
Every cat adopted from Hoffmeyer Animal Rescue is required to be spayed or neutered. This important step helps control the cat population, improves long-term health, and ensures every kitty gets the best start in their new home.
We work with trusted veterinary partners to provide safe, affordable surgeries along with optional services to support your cat’s health. To make the process as easy as possible, we have outlined everything you need to know below.
