Spay or neuter your pet through us

In conjunction with the Asheville Humane Alliance, ARF offers low cost spay/neuter assisance. We can help you help your pets live longer, happier lives. Costs vary, but generally run around $47 for a spay plus $6 per vaccine. ARF also has a very few discount coupons for those who can't afford the full cost.

Next spay / neuter day

We have Spay/Neuter Days approximately once every month (usually on Monday / Tuesday). Please reserve your place in advance -- we can only take a limited number of pets each time!

To reserve your place, please come to ARF's Pet Adoption site (see link at bottom of page for directions) on Saturdays between 1 and 3 PM. You must reserve a place in person and pay a deposit to reserve your place. If you have questions about the date or details, call 828-293-5377, or email us.

Those who reserve a spot but do not attend with forward their deposit.

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.
