Low Cost Spay and Neuter with Palm Valley Animal Society
Palm Valley Animal Society is proud to launch a new Low-Cost Spay & Neuter Initiative, bringing affordable, high-quality sterilization services to pet owners across the Rio Grande Valley. Each three-day clinic will provide low-cost spay and neuter surgeries, vaccinations, and microchipping to help keep pets and families healthy.
Our first clinic will take place November 17–19, 2025, at the Laurie P. Andrews Center in Edinburg. Appointments are required and limited — each day serves a set number of cats and dogs.
Vaccinations are required prior to surgery. If your pet is not yet vaccinated, you can add vaccines at check-in for a small fee. Microchips and additional services are also available.
This initiative reflects PVAS’s commitment to reducing pet overpopulation while supporting pet owners with compassionate, accessible care.

Q: Can I walk in or just show up?
A: No. Clinics operate by appointment only to ensure safety and scheduling efficiency.
Q: What if my pet isn’t vaccinated?
A: Vaccines will be added at the time of surgery at a low cost.
Q: Do you accept feral or community cats?
A: No—this clinic is reserved for owned pets.
Q: Can I sponsor a surgery for someone else?
A: Absolutely! As long as you register that someone else through our official link made through pvastx.org/spayandneuter directly help fund surgeries for families in need.
Q: Is this available for anyone in the Valley?
A:These clinics are available only to residents of our contracted service areas: McAllen, Edinburg, Palmhurst, and unincorporated Hidalgo County. If your city is not listed, please contact your local city officials and encourage them to partner with Palm Valley Animal Society so we can bring these services to your community.
Q: How do I know if I live in unincorporated Hidalgo County?
A: If you don’t live within the city limits of McAllen, Edinburg, or Palmhurst, your address may be part of unincorporated Hidalgo County. The easiest way to check is by visiting the Hidalgo County Appraisal District website at hidalgoad.org and using the “Property Search” tool. If your record lists “Hidalgo County” or “None” under City/Jurisdiction, that means you’re in an unincorporated area.
If your city isn’t listed among our contracted partners, you can reach out to your local city officials and encourage them to partner with Palm Valley Animal Society so residents can access these services in the future.
