Farmingville, NY -  The weekly The Town of Brookhaven Animal Shelter and Adoption Center has announced that it is offering a voucher program for free feral cat and pit bull or pit bull mix spay/neuter. Vouchers will be given to residents who live in the Town of Brookhaven and have feral cats or pit bulls that need to be altered. Surgeries are scheduled by appointment only. For more information, please call the Brookhaven Animal Shelter and Adoption Center at 631-451-6950.

Feral Cat Program Vouchers are given to residents who live in the Town of Brookhaven and have feral cats that need to be altered. Two vouchers are issued at a time to each resident. The vouchers are redeemed at the Integrative Veterinary Therapies in Ridge. You must call the clinic to make an appointment once you have the vouchers. Cats must be brought into the clinic in a trap on the day of surgery. The cats will be ear tipped and rabies vaccinated at the time of surgery.

Pit Bull / Pit Bull Mix Program The voucher automatically entitles you to one spay or neuter procedure for your Pitbull or Pitbull mix. To ensure the health and wellbeing of your pet and their ability to undergo surgery safely, we request that all dogs over the age of five undergo a free blood work screening at least one week before the scheduled surgical procedure. All surgical candidates five years or older must come to the Brookhaven Animal Shelter on a walk-in basis during our normal business hours within those seven days before surgery to allow for the blood to be taken from your pet and sent out for evaluation. This program has been provided by the Town of Brookhaven Animal Shelter in partnership with the Southampton Animal Shelter Foundation Mobile Spay/Neuter Clinic.

The Brookhaven Animal Shelter and Adoption Center located at 300 Horseblock Road in Brookhaven. It is open Monday through Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. For more information, please call 631-451-6950 or visit the Brookhaven Animal Shelter website.
