Program Requirements
CTF provides spay-neuter for free-roaming/unowned cats only, and I certify that to the best of my knowledge the cats I am admitting for spay/neuter are unowned. I release CTF, its volunteers, staff, and facilities from any liability incurred while I am transporting or caring for these cats.
Community cats face risks during handling, anesthesia, and surgery, and I hold CTF, its volunteers, staff, and facilities harmless should a cat experience complications, injury, escape, or death. Any cat deemed by the veterinarian to be severely ill or injured will be humanely euthanized.
In addition to sterilization, these cats will have their left ears tipped to identify them as sterile, free-roaming cats. Routine preventive health care (vaccines, parasite control) and treatment for extraneous conditions will be performed according to the veterinarian’s recommendation and the available resources. Each cat will be microchipped with registration to CTF.
I agree to withhold food prior to trapping as instructed by the CTF Volunteer.
I will return all cats to the location from which they were taken, following the guidelines established by CTF, and agree that no cat will be surrendered to a shelter or relocated once presented to CTF for sterilization. I understand that CTF needs to return ALL cats to their colony.
I agree to pick up the cats at the specified time. Any cats not picked up will be considered abandoned and relinquished to Animal Services; a report of illegal animal abandonment will be filed.
I agree to release the use of my likeness to CTF for promotional or educational use in photos or video. Personal information such as full name and address are strictly confidential to Cat Trap Fever.
I release CTF, its volunteers, and associated personnel of any and all liability.
If one of my cats passes away while under the care of CTF (before or after surgery), I agree that CTF has my permission to send the body for necropsy to determine cause of death at their discretion. I understand that I will not receive the body back after necropsy. This is only done in cases where infectious disease is suspected in cause of death. There is no cost for this service.
I have read and agree to all of the program requirements listed above.
