Any individual with a cat or cats to spay or neuter qualifies for SNAP. However, our target audience is:
- Caretakers of feral colonies wishing to trap, neuter, release and continue caring for the colony.
- Members of the community who have assumed responsibility or rescued a stray or feral cat.
- Low-income citizens who require assistance with spay/neuter surgery
Geographic areas covered in SNAP:
- Lincoln
- Newcastle
- Wheatland
- Sheridan
What SNAP will cover:
- Spay or neuter surgery
- One (1) FVRCP vaccine
- Rabies vaccine
- FeLV/FIV at discretion of ASN
- Other neccessary medical care at descretion of ASN. Any extensive care/costs must be discussed with a FieldHaven staff member before costs are incurred.
Assistance with transportation, equipment, etc.:
- Transportation assistance can be provided by FieldHaven staff and volunteers by prior arrangement.
Recipients will schedule spay/neuter with FieldHaven, drop the animal(s) at FieldHaven the morning of surgery
and pickup that evening.
- Traps and cages can be loaned to individuals working with feral cats. There is a refundable deposit ($75-$125)
required for use of all equipment.
- Advice and assistance with instruction in the use of traps, TNR, recovery, etc. can be provided. Volunteer time
to provide physical assistance is very limited but will be provided as available.
Education is also a key goal of the SNAP.
FieldHaven volunteers
provide education on responsible pet stewardship to local youth groups,
civic organizations and schools.
“The cat overpopulation problem
in Lincoln is daunting but we are committed to providing the expertise
and equipment to Lincoln residents to fix the cats in their neighborhoods”.
