To help stop the cycle of cat overpopulation, GCHS, the City of Monroe, ENAH and South Wayne are once again teaming up to offer free spays or neuters for cats owned by those with a financial need. The organizations have contracted with the Dane County Humane Society's mobile spay/neuter unit to come to Monroe and provide alteration surgeries. So far, GCHS and ENAH have teamed together to spay/neuter 270 cats at nine previous events.

Residents of both Green and Lafayette counties are eligible. Spots for the free surgery day are expected to fill up fast. There is a limit of two cats per household. Cats must be in good health and free of respiratory illness. Cats must be tame enough to be handled and must be transported in a pet carrier. Cats living in outdoor homes are eligible.

Cats must be dropped off in the morning and DCHS veterinary staff will perform the surgeries. After a short recovery period, cats will be released to their owners that afternoon.
