RSPCA & Onkaparinga Council Cat Program

Every cat deserves a responsible owner, and together with the Onkaparinga Council, we have implemented a free program to spay and neuter cats to make being a responsible owner even easier. We are aiming for 2000 cats spayed and neutered by June 2022. To help reach our goal, we have set ourselves a new target - from 9/9 to 14/9 2021 we are aiming to spay and neuter a total of 300 cats. Booking an appointment is free and open to all residents in the Onkaparinga area.

Book your appointment by visiting www.rspcasa.org/the-issues/desexing-program/booking/.
