1,500 Male Cats to Receive Free Neutering Services at Houston Humane Society

Pre-registration is required and there is a limit of five cats per person for free neutering

HOUSTON (CW39) — Kitten season is just around the corner. And to help reduce the influx of stray and abandoned animals in the area, the Houston Humane Society wants to help you “Fix Felix”!

Is bringing back it’s “Fix Felix” Event! On Wednesday, February 21, the nonprofit will neuter 1,500 male cats at no cost to pet owners or good Samaritans who bring in strays. The goal of the program is to end cat overpopulation and homelessness across the Houston area. 

According to the Houston Humane Society, “This year’s event is even more urgent in light of a recent hoarding case where 26 cats were surrendered to Houston Humane Society. The origin of this situation traces back to the owner’s initial adoption of three cats without spaying/neutering, emphasizing the importance of these procedures to prevent such situations.”

By law, a current rabies vaccination is required, and pet owners must show a current rabies certificate, or they may purchase a vaccine for their cat the day of the event. No walk-ins will be accepted. To reserve one of the 1,500 appointments, visit the Houston Humane Society Link. There is a limit of five cats per person, and cats must be in a carrier upon arrival.
