Important Changes to the SNIPPP Voucher Program Effective 03/01/23:

In order to continue serving the animal welfare needs of the Intermountain Area, effective March 1, 2023 SNIPPP is making the following changes to our CAT spay/neuter voucher program. 

SNIPPP will not longer be issuing Feral or Low Income pay in full vouchers for cats. 

All cat vouchers will be in the amount of $100 for a female cat spay, and $50 for a male cat neuter. The balance of the cost of the spay/neuter will be the responsibility of the owner of the cat. 

Additionally, SNIPPP is no longer able to provide traps on loan.

Although there are no changes to our Dog Voucher Programs at this time, following is a recap of the programs offered by SNIPPP effective 03/01/23:

Female Cat Spay - $100 Voucher

Male Cat Neuter - $50 Voucher

Low Income Small Dog under 50lbs - Female Dog Spay - $200

Low Income Small Dog under 50lbs - Male Dog Neuter - $160

Regular Income Female Dog Spay - $60

Due to rising costs and increased demand, these changes are vital to the continuation of SNIPPP's voucher programs and our ongoing goal of providing assistance within our communities with the spaying and neutering of companion animals. Any and all vouchers are issued based upon the availability of funds and may be changed or discontinued at any time if necessary. 

In order to continue serving the animal welfare needs of the Intermountain Area, effective June 1, 2020 SNIPPP has made the following changes to our spay/neuter voucher programs.

Dog vouchers are available in the amount of $60 towards a spay and $40 towards a neuter, and Cat vouchers are available in the amount of $70 towards a spay and $30 towards a neuter.

Feral cat vouchers may also be available to cover the entire amount of a spay or neuter, providing the cat arrives at the vet in a trap. The cat will be spayed/neutered, it's ear will be tipped (to allow for identification as having been altered) and it will be returned in the trap for release. This program is limited to Feral cats only.

In addition to the vouchers described above, SNIPPP has a number of options available to provide more financial coverage for low-income households. For more information regarding available assistance please contact SNIPPP at 530-336-6006.

To obtain a spay or neuter voucher, please contact one of our local veterinarians and make an appointment, then contact SNIPPP at 530-336-6006. A SNIPPP representative will contact you within 24 hours. SNIPPP will contact the veterinarian and provide them with coverage information. Be sure to leave a number where you can be contacted and allow for sufficient time for SNIPPP to confirm the information and contact the veterinarian.
