Voucher Program for Feral Cat Sterilizations

Operation Catnip, a no-charge spay/neuter clinic for feral cats in Gainesville, Florida, augments their monthly high-volume spay/neuter clinics with a voucher program. Through this program, local veterinarians perform feral cat sterilizations in their clinics for a greatly reduced fee, shared by both the caregiver and Operation Catnip.

"I guess it's all about 'giving back' and doing something worthwhile, making a stand where action needs to be taken."
