Pasadena Humane's clinic specializes in the preventative treatments that have the greatest impact on your pet's health: spay and neuter surgery, vaccinations, and microchipping, all at prices designed to work for all families in Raymond Hill, Pasadena, CA.
At Pasadena Humane, we’re dedicated to providing affordable spay and neuter surgery for dogs and cats to help promote pet health and reduce pet overpopulation in our community. Our low-cost public clinic offers these essential sterilization procedures by appointment for pets residing in our 11 animal care and control service areas, with dates released monthly through our online scheduler.
The surgeons at Pasadena Humane's SNiP clinic concentrate entirely on spay and neuter procedures, performing them day after day with a level of skill and consistency that directly benefits your Raymond Hill pet. Most animals spend fewer than 15 minutes under anesthesia, which lowers risk and helps them bounce back faster. From check-in through post-operative care, your companion receives continuous attention from a dedicated veterinary technician and veterinarian who are focused on every detail. Long-acting pain management keeps your pet comfortable at home without putting a complicated medication routine on your plate, and our all-inclusive pricing covers everything from start to finish with no surprise fees. If your pet's situation suggests they'd be better served by a full-service facility, we'll let you know before moving forward. Schedule your pet's spay or neuter surgery and give them the advantage of a team that has made these procedures their life's work.
Due to the nature of our high-volume clinic, we cannot perform surgery on animals that:
If your pet is noted to have any of these conditions, our veterinary team will not proceed with surgery.
Male and female cats (2lbs+): $165
Small dog (2-30lbs): $305
Medium dog (31-50lbs: $365
Large dog (51-75lbs): $425
Extra large dog (76+ lbs): $485
Our surgeons perform spay/neuter surgeries all day, every day—leading to exceptional skill and fewer complications.
Experienced surgeons means less anesthesia. Most pets are under anesthesia for less than 15 minutes, reducing risks and speeding up recovery.
Animals receiving surgery here have a dedicated tech and/or veterinarian monitoring them at each step of the process.
If our veterinarian feels your pet has a higher risk or anesthesia or surgery or would be best served by a clinic with additional tools at their disposal, we don’t hesitate to speak with the owner and make that recommendation.
Our entire clinic is designed for efficiency, reducing overhead while maintaining high-quality care.
We buy supplies in bulk, run a lean operation, and pass savings directly to you.
Every part of our clinic is optimized for safe, efficient surgery.
Unlike general practices juggling dozens of tasks (phones, lab work, sick visits, pharmacy, etc.), we do one thing—and do it exceptionally well.
Same price regardless of heat cycle, pregnancy, pyometra, or umbilical hernia.
Includes vaccines, microchips, and other preventative services we offer.
Free post-op rechecks for any spay/neuter concern.
We use anesthetic and pain protocols that meet and exceed the latest recommendations from professional veterinary groups. We utilize long acting medications to manage pain so that when your pet gets home, you can focus on recovering and not needing to give your pet more medication.
If you are concerned for your pet after their spay or neuter surgery, the post-operative instructions answer many common questions.
If your pet is experiencing a life threatening emergency we recommend you take them to a veterinary emergency clinic right away.
We are happy to see your pet back if there are any complications related to the surgery. Please complete the Recheck Request Form. We will contact you with further instructions. (Please be advised that it may take up to 24 hours to get a response.)
At Pasadena Humane, we’re committed to helping you keep your pets happy, healthy, and protected. Our low-cost, appointment-based Pet Vaccine & Microchip Clinic offers essential vaccinations for dogs and cats as well as microchipping and parasite prevention.
Vaccines are one of the most reliable ways to keep your Raymond Hill pet safe from diseases that can cause serious illness or worse. These preventative treatments prepare your pet's immune system to recognize and fight specific threats, either blocking infection entirely or significantly reducing how severely your companion is affected. Dogs in Raymond Hill, Pasadena, CA, need core vaccines including rabies and DA2PP, along with targeted protection like Bordetella for kennel cough, canine influenza, and leptospirosis based on their lifestyle and exposure risk. Cats need rabies and FVRCP vaccines to stay protected against the most dangerous feline illnesses. Our team is happy to walk you through which vaccines make the most sense for your companion's age and daily life. Book your pet's vaccination appointment today and make sure they live a long, happy, and healthy life in Raymond Hill, Pasadena, CA.
Vaccines can help your pet in two ways – they can prevent your pet from contracting a deadly disease or they can make the clinical signs of a disease much less severe. Many of these diseases have life long or deadly consequences – and once a pet has been infected, it is too late to treat.
Vaccines help all of the pets in the community by reducing the occurrence of disease – less sick pets means less viruses and diseases being shed and contaminating the areas where our pets spend time.
This depends on the age of the pet and the pet’s lifestyle. Kittens/puppies should be vaccinated every 2-3 weeks until they are 4-5 months old. While some vaccines in adults (such as rabies or distemper) can often provide immunity for 3 years, others such as kennel cough or influenza may need to be repeated as often as 6 months depending on your pet’s lifestyle.
We recommend checking in on the average adult pet’s vaccines yearly to make sure everything is up to date unless your pet spends a lot of time at boarding facilities, dog parks or day cares.
The American Animal Hospital Association recommends the following core vaccines for dogs: Rabies (required by law) and DA2PP. Other recommended vaccines for our area: Bordetella (kennel cough), Canine influenza, and Leptospirosis.
For felines, Rabies (required by law) and FVRCP are recommended.
Most pets don’t notice the vaccines being administered at all – especially when we distract them with some ear scratches or some treats. The most common side effects include a small swelling at the injection site which subsides after a week or so. Some pets might be a little tired, not want to eat quite as much or be a little tender at the site of the injection. A pet may even occasionally vomit or have some diarrhea – this is normal as their immune systems are mounting a response to a perceived disease threat.
There are occasionally more serious allergic reactions consistent with anaphylactic shock – difficulty breathing, severe vomiting/diarrhea, collapse. Pets with immune diseases may have their disease triggered by a vaccine. These typically happen within 10 minutes of being vaccinated.
During your pet’s spay/neuter, we offer microchipping free of charge. Microchipping is a simple, non-surgical procedure that is a customary practice that can reduce the number of lost pets and reunite owners with missing pets.
A microchip is one of the smartest things you can do to protect your Raymond Hill pet. The chip, roughly the size of a grain of rice, is placed beneath the skin in a quick injection that's no more uncomfortable than a standard vaccine. Once it's in, your pet's unique ID number connects to a national database with your contact information, so any shelter or veterinary clinic in the country can identify them and reach you right away if they ever go missing. Collars break, tags fade, and even the most careful pet owners can leave a door open at the wrong moment, but a microchip provides protection that holds up no matter the circumstances. Pasadena Humane makes this service affordable and easy to schedule alongside your pet's other clinic visits. Book a clinic appointment today, and don't forget to keep your registry information current whenever your contact details change.
