Are you eligible?
Using our chart, find out if you and your pet should schedule with SNAP! We use this and the information you provide as a guide to determine your eligibility. We schedule pet owners who cannot afford a private veterinarian. If you meet the criteria, you will move to the scheduling phase. If not, you can still get your pet spayed or neutered at an affordable rate through a referral to partner veterinarians. Please understand that due to high demand, our reservations fill up quickly. (See Additional Resources page.)
YOUR INFORMATION (we’re only counting people for this part)
Our Eligibility Chart is based on the number of family members and the combined household income. If you determined you and your pet are eligible, go to the SNAP Neuter Scooter Application and complete all the information requested. Be sure to hit the submit button after you fill out the application!
PET SPECIFICS (now for the animals!)
Please make sure your cat or dog is in good physical health and meets the following qualifications:
- Cats and dogs must be two months old and weigh two pounds, at a minimum, to be spayed or neutered. The male testicles should be descended and/or visible.
- Our medical staff recommends routine vaccines be given prior to scheduling for your pet’s benefit, if/when possible.
- If your dog does not require a Rabies vaccination, please bring the appropriate lot number and vaccine manufacturer with you to your scheduled appointment.
- A pre-anesthesia health exam will be performed to determine if any surgical risks are present.
As a safety precaution, SNAP will not spay or neuter any pets over seven years old, as we are unable to offer/provide pre-surgical blood work as a screening measure for their health prior to surgery. Please take older pets to a traditional veterinary clinic where those options are available.- If applying for a first-time dog license, eligibility is based on zip code.

SNAP offers programs to discount already low fees to E1-E4 Military members, Tribal members and the Homeless.
Note change: MIL-SNAP now covers E1-E4 as of Feb 1, 2023 (was E1-E6). Any DOD Pet Chit (free spay neuter) application after Feb 1 is E1-E4. We apologize for any inconvenience. SNAP can still help if you do not qualify for a DOD Pet Chit.
If you’re eligible:
Once eligibility is confirmed, you may request an appointment for your pet on the Neuter Scooter surgical bus! Clinics fill up quickly, and we do our best to fit people in at the available locations. There is also an opportunity to be added to the “standby” list. All available options will be discussed during the scheduling phone call.
PLEASE NOTE: No more than three animals from the same family will be scheduled on the same day.
