Check-In Days & Time by Location & other feral cats info:

San Antonio Humane Society (4804 Fredericksburg Rd, at our new Leeu Naylor Medical Building next to the shelter.): Monday – Friday at 7:15 am

Feral cats must be brought in at check-in (7:15 am) in an approved trap (All feral traps doors must be secured with either a carabiner or pipe cleaner. Zip ties will not be accepted.). All feral cats will receive a permanent green tattoo on their abdomen as well as an ear tip to designate sterilized status. We cannot accept feral cats for surgery if they are not in an approved feral cat trap as they are a danger to themselves and our staff. If you have not attended a feral cat trapping training class, please do not attempt to trap feral cats on your own or bring them in an inappropriate carrier. This only creates added stress to the cat, and we will not be able to perform surgery. Learn more info about local feral cat groups/training classes.
