Bissell
Surgery Special
This year, we're partnering with Bissell Pet Foundation to spay & neuter community cats for $25! Limit 5 cats per client, per day.
Procedures
-
All community cats must arrive at Midtown Clinic in a secure humane live trap. The trap must remain with the cat during its stay. For the safety of the animals and our staff, we will not accept community cats that are not in a trap.
-
All community cats will receive an ear tip to show that they have been altered.
-
Community cats will typically be held over for one to two nights, and you will receive a phone call when they are ready to pick up. There is a late fee of $25 if the cat is not picked up the day after their surgery.
-
Community cats will receive a rabies vaccination at the time of surgery. A rabies certificate will be provided to you at discharge.
-
Price includes a cerenia injection as needed.
-
Please do not mislead our staff by putting an owned cat in a trap in order to avoid making an appointment for your pet. Any cat that does not arrive in a live trap or does not receive an ear tip will not receive the community cat discount.

An ear tip is the easiest way to identify a fixed outdoor cat.
Trap Rental
​Pricing
-
We provide trap rentals for 7 days at a refundable deposit of $80 per trap. This deposit will be refunded to you when the trap is returned in its original, working condition after releasing the cat.
-
To rent a trap, simply visit our Midtown Clinic during business hours and request a trap.
Guidelines
-
Use trap only for humane trap-neuter-return at the Healthy Pet Clinic.
-
Never leave set traps unattended.
-
Fully cover occupied traps with a towel or blanket to relieve the animal’s stress.
-
Collect trapped cats promptly from the area in which they have been trapped and provide temperature-controlled shelter both before surgery and during recuperation.
-
Return traps cleaned and sterilized with a bleach/water mix by the return date.
Dorothy Ricks
Community Cat Fund
Dorothy Ricks was an unwavering force for good in Hattiesburg, partnering with Southern Pines for over a decade to help improve the lives of homeless, hurting, and in need animals. To memorialize our friend Dorothy's love and work with Hattiesburg community cats, we've decided to create the Dorothy Ricks Community Cat Fund to help assist with the cost of fixing community cats.
