Free Spay/Neuter for Oakland Dogs and Cats!
Friends of Oakland Animal Services offers free spay and neuter services to dogs and cats of Oakland residents. Through our spay and neuter clinics and voucher program, we aim to ensure that financial need is not a barrier for Oakland residents seeking spay and neuter surgeries for their animals.
Why Spay and Neuter?
Spaying and neutering prevent many behaviors and health problems for your animal. It reduces overpopulation and euthanizing unwanted dogs and cats in Oakland.
FOAS Monthly Spay and Neuter Events in Oakland
**NOTE: there will be no first-come, first-served spay/neuter event in September.**
We offer first-come, first-serve events in Oakland as well as limited appointment-based events.
Currently, our first-come, first-serve events take place the second Sunday of each month at 410 Hegenberger Road, with check-in between 7:30 – 8:30 am. FOAS events are limited to the first approximately 40 animals, and no appointments are required. Monthly appointment-based events at the same location are also available. Please call to inquire about appointment availability, and complete the request form.
These free events are for dogs and cats and include microchipping and routine vaccines as needed.
FOAS Free Voucher Program
Please sign up for FOAS community voucher or inquire about one of our appointment-based events. If you cannot make an upcoming clinic, FOAS can provide Oakland residents with free vouchers for spay and neuter, microchipping, and routine vaccines at the Fix Our Ferals clinic in Richmond. Vouchers are available on a limited monthly basis and are not transferable. Please complete a PetFix inquiry form to request a voucher.
Thank you for servicing the three kitties we found in our backyard in October who are now a part of our family! We had no idea how we were going to handle paying for three cats to get vaccinated, spayed and neutered. Here they are last night. You’d never know they had just had surgery the way they were eating and playing.” — Tracy C, December 2017
