Participating veterinarians island wide are offering Neuter Now Certificates in partnership with the City and County of Honolulu. Neuter Now Certificates provide discounted spay/neuter services to qualifying EBT/Kokua cardholders, Medicaid cardholders and low-income households receiving housing assistance. Qualifying households may purchase up to 10 certificates per year for a reduced rate of $20 each. Each Neuter Now Certificate is valid for one dog or cat.

Participating Veterinary Clinics
Veterinarians decide if animals are medically fit for surgery and may require vaccinations and other services prior to surgery.
The costs of any additional services (such as lab work) must be paid directly to the veterinarian clinic. Clinics may also charge additional fees for animals that are over 3 years old or over 45 pounds. Each veterinarian determines the services provided and the cost of those services. We encourage pet owners to call different veterinarians to inquire about additional fees as they can vary from one clinic to another.
