Surgery and Vaccinations

Surgery

Spay and neuter surgeries are done by appointment only. Surgeries are performed in the morning, Monday through Thursday. To schedule an appointment, please call (541) 682-3643.

All female pets will receive a tattoo at the time of their spay surgery. This black tattoo is a small line that tells all future veterinarians and shelter staff that this pet has already been spayed. Many spay scars are small and become very faint or invisible over time especially if the surgery was done as a puppy or kitten. Tattooing at the time of spaying avoids the possibility of an animal having unnecessary exploratory surgery in the future.

Feral cats will have the left ear tipped (a small portion of ear tip removed) and the females will also be tattooed on the belly.

Surgical Requirements

• We do surgeries on dogs and cats starting at four months old through four years old.
• There is an additional $15 charge for pregnant animals.
• Proof of your dogs rabies vaccination is required to schedule their surgery. That can be emailed to spayandneuterclinic@ci.eugene.or.us after speaking to a member of the staff to book an appointment. Be sure to add in the subject title the dogs name, owners first and last name and the phone number your account will be under. If not current on the day of surgery, your pet will receive that while here for $30. The rabies tag is not the proof we need, we need to have emailed the rabies certificate provided by the vet clinic where it was given.
• We require the cost of surgery be paid at the time of scheduling. This fee is non-refundable.

Surgery Rates

The costs below are for a routine spay or neuter. If your pets’ surgery is not routine, or is extended for any reason, there may be further charges to cover the longer  anesthesia time and any extra supplies that are needed.

Vaccinations

Vaccinations may be done at the time of surgery or on a walk-in basis during our afternoon Wellness Clinic hours. No appointments available. Patients are seen in the order they are checked in. All vaccines are $30 each, and there is no charge for the brief exam.

Walk-in Hours

The City of Eugene Spay and Neuter Clinic is open for limited walk-in hours between the hours of 1:30-4:30 p.m., Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday (no clinic Thurs/Fri) . Please note that we check in the last patient no later than 4:30p.m. If we have a large volume of patients already checked in, we may end check-in sooner. We are now using a QR system to allow you to check in from your vehicle so you won’t need to wait in line. There are instructions on posts at each parking spot on how to check in on your cell phone. Please practice social distancing.
