Mesa County Animal Services and local veterinarians provide subsidized spay/neuter vouchers

Mesa County Animal Services is collaborating with local veterinarians to offer low-cost spay and neuter vouchers for local pet owners through a grant from the Colorado Pet Overpopulation Fund.

The cost of a spay/neuter procedure is $25 for the pet owner, with a voucher present at participating veterinarians' offices. The vouchers are valid from Sept. 28, 2026 to April 27, 2027. Pet owners can contact the participating veterinarians to check their voucher availability. 

Participating local veterinarians

The participating veterinarians have been given a limited number of vouchers for 2026/2027. Issuance of the vouchers is entirely at the discretion of each participating veterinarian's office. Individuals may be requested to support that they have financial need or be able to communicate why they have a unique circumstance that results in a need for the voucher.

Pet owners are required to provide proof of current rabies vaccination at the time of the procedure. The rabies vaccination cost is not covered by the $25 co-pay. If your pet does not have a current rabies vaccination, you will need to pay for that service before the spay/neuter procedure. 

Thanks to funding from the Colorado Pet Overpopulation Fund, these services are available to Mesa County residents at a substantially reduced rate. Animal Services would like to thank the local veterinarians participating in the program. 

Sterilization procedures can help pets live longer, healthier lives. By managing overpopulation in our community, we can ensure that all pets, whether temporarily living in our shelter, a loving home, or as community cats, have access to the Five Freedoms: Freedom from hunger and thirst; freedom from discomfort; freedom from pain, injury or disease; freedom to express normal behavior; and freedom from fear and distress.
