PawPrints Spay/Neuter Clinic is a spay and neuter clinic for stray and feral cats ONLY. All cats are spayed/neutered and ear-tipped.

Pregnancies are also terminated. Our goal is to end the overpopulation of stray and feral cats in our community, not add to it.

If you are not okay with pregnancy terminations, this is not the environment for you.

If you are saddened by pregnancy terminations but still want to work towards our goal, click NEXT to continue filling out your information. We, and the cats, need you! 

There are two aspects of the Clinic. The back is where surgeries, vaccines, etc. happen.

The front is where intake happens, as well as recovery and check-out. This requires attention to detail, the ability to focus while a lot is going on around you, and excellent customer service. The front is broken up in two separate shifts:

AM (7am-11am): Intake, Recovery, cleanup

PM (11am-3pm): Recovery, check-out, cleanup

In either part of the Clinic, you will smell all the smells and see blood and body parts. You need to have a strong stomach and be able to stay on your feet!

To work in the front in the morning during intake, you need a keen eye for detail because we often have multiple different people dropping off several different cats all at once. It's easy to lose track of which cats belong to which person (we have a system for this) and it can be overwhelming at times. 

There are often various different conversations happening at once, with lots of activity going on. You will need to be able to focus on the task at hand and at the same time, be kind and patient with people while they talk to you.

Additionally, there is a lot of lifting and bending, and you are on your feet most of the day. There are often traps that need to be hosed out because they've been soiled, and sometimes we have to clean runny poop off of the floors and tables. 

We also do all the laundry and cleanup at the end of the day (sweeping, mopping, taking out the garbage, sanitizing, etc.)

We deal with a lot in the front, so we need someone who can think quickly, remain calm, and be able to clean really disgusting things!

To work in the front also requires someone who can focus on cats while they recover. This is a critical aspect of being a volunteer in the front, because right after surgery, the cats' blood pressure rises, sometimes their breathing slows down, and sometimes they need to be kept warm and kept an intense eye on. 

Working in all aspects of the Clinic requires 100% teamwork. You will work with all sorts of personalities, ages, and experiences. Front and back volunteering can at times be quiet, at times stressful. 

Our team members work together to achieve a healthy, happy environment for everyone ... cats and people alike!

We need team players and dedicated folks. We hope that is YOU!
