Spay and Neuter Programs and Other Assistance
These are mostly links for Wisconsin and some National Links. Check with your local shelter to see if they offer low cost spay neuter and feral cat Trap Neuter Return (TNR) services. If they do not, they will hopefully refer you to a place that does. Kittens can be sterilized at about 2 lbs (8-10 weeks). This insures that if you rehome kittens, they will be going home already fixed!
