SPAY/NEUTER SURGERY, RABIES VACCINATIONS, DEWORMING, AND EAR TIPPING FOR ANY FERAL CATS THEY TRAP ARE FREE OF CHARGE. AFTER RECOVERING FROM SURGERY, THE FERAL CAT IS RETURNED TO ITS COLONY BY THE VOLUNTEER. THE AHS TNR CLINIC WAS THE FIRST HIGH VOLUME SPAY/NEUTER CLINIC SPECIFICALLY FOR FERAL CATS IN CENTRAL TEXAS.

AHS LAUNCHED A UNIQUE PARTNERSHIP WITH THE AUSTIN ANIMAL CENTER (AAC) IN 2011 TO SAVE THE LIVES OF STRAY CATS THAT WOULD PREVIOUSLY HAVE BEEN EUTHANIZED. MODELED AFTER THE FERAL FREEDOM PROGRAM IN JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA, QUALIFYING STRAY CATS SURRENDERED AT AAC ARE TRANSPORTED TO AHS, SPAYED/NEUTERED, VACCINATED, MICROCHIPPED, AND EAR TIPPED FOR IDENTIFICATION AND THEN RETURNED BY AHS STAFF BACK INTO THEIR TERRITORIES TO LIVE OUT THEIR LIVES.Expenses $490,366 · revenue $386,898
