Your pet will need to travel in a crate. If you do
not have one, we have crates available on spay/ neuter
day. If you need to take one home, you must pay a deposit.
As soon as the cleaned crate is returned, you will receive
the crate deposit back.
Instructions for Spay/Neuter Day:
- All pets must be in a carrier for transport; if
you do not have a carrier, let us know in advance
so we can provide one.
- Pet should receive no food or water after 9 pm the
night before.
- Pets are dropped off at 8:15 am
at the ARF office in downtown Sylva next to the new
pavillion on Railroad Street. Get directions
from your location.
- Pickup is the following day, please check to make
sure what time your pet will be ready. Those owners
who don't pick up their animals will be assessed an
hourly charge.
