McKamey Animal Center offers low-cost spay and neutering services to residents of Hamilton, County Tennessee for dogs and cats. MAC also offers services for community cats or TNR cats. All owned pets must have an appointment to be seen. MAC does not offer wellness exams, parasite treatment or prevention, etc. If you are seeking these services we ask you that you find a local veterinarian.
Spaying and neutering (sometimes called “altering” or “fixing”) your pet has many benefits. It prevents certain cancers, curbs unwanted behaviors like marking and roaming, and most important, eliminates the possibility of unwanted litters of puppies and kittens. McKamey Animal Center offers low-cost cat and dog spay/neuter services by appointment to all pet owners throughout Hamilton County.
