For communities with an over-population of feral but beloved cats:
BCHS will set up a program to trap targeted cats, have them spayed and neutered, administered rabies shots and be re-released into your community.
Contact Chloe Lantzy at 570-888-2114 for more details.
Approved low-income applicants may receive grants towards the spaying or neutering of their pets. Come to the shelter to apply.
For those of you who have been feeding a cat who just showed up in your back yard, or in your barn but do not consider it your "pet" the Bradford County Humane Society offers a program through which you can have it spayed or neutered at an affordable cost. This is to help avoid amassing litters of newborn kittens or deal with a male cat who fights and sprays. The cats will also be given a rabies shots at the time of neutering.
To register for this program, we ask that you do not call the shelter but pay a visit to our facility in Ulster to complete the form. We will answer any questions you have at that time. The spay/neutering fees will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
Once you are on our list for this program, you will be notified to deliver your cat(s) in the morning of a given date and will need to return to pick them up two days later.
If you would like to make a donations towards the expansion of this program, you can send it to BCHS, PO Box 179, Ulster, PA 18850. BCHS is a United Way agency.
Do you know an elementary or pre-school class that would be interested in a "Be Kind to Animals" Presentation? If so, please contact our Business Manager, Chloe Lantzy at 570-888-2114. Chloe visits local area schools with an adoptable shelter pet and shows children how to be "Be Kind to Animals". Now is the time to reinforce his or her commitment to animals.
