SURGERY PATIENTS - All pets over 3 months old are required by the State of Texas to be current on rabies. If your pet is not current on rabies, you will be required to vaccinate your pet at the time of surgery. You must bring the rabies CERTIFICATE at check-in. Rabies tags are not valid proof of rabies and will not be accepted.
We do not require pets to be current on other core vaccines at the time of surgery, but we HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. Please understand if your pet is not current on core vaccines, you run the risk of your pet getting sick. It can take up to 2 weeks for vaccines to be effective. TLC will not be responsible for illnesses or fleas contracted due to your pet not being vaccinated or flea treated. Please remember, your pet will be in close proximity to 25-40 animals. Kennels are thoroughly cleaned daily, but we cannot control airborne contagions.
We have room for 10 community cats per day. You must select COMMUNITY CAT/FERAL CAT SPAY/NEUTER or you will be charged full price. If the schedule is full, it's full.
***IMPORTANT INFORMATION*** Our new system requires a unique name for every animal who comes in. Please name your feral a unique name when you book online. A STRICT LIMIT OF 2 COMMUNITY CATS PER DAY IS STRICTLY ENFORCED.
PLAN AHEAD! We have limited space. If you are planning on trapping a cat, book an appointment prior to trapping. We understand that sometimes you can't catch the cat. Select Community/Feral Cat Spay/Neuter when booking your appointment. If the date you are trying to choose is not available it means we have no open appointments.
Please DO NOT use the online scheduling system to schedule for these services. You MUST CALL 281-528-1238 for an appointment. Visit this link to see if you qualify for these services.
