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.
Preventative vaccines are a cornerstone of lifelong pet health. Pasadena Humane’s clinic offers core vaccinations that protect Sierra Madre, CA, pets from diseases that can cause serious illness or long-term complications. By keeping vaccinations up to date, pet owners in Sierra Madre, CA, help protect not only their own companions but also the wider animal community. Dogs may receive vaccines such as rabies and DA2PP, along with additional options based on lifestyle and exposure risks. Cats benefit from vaccines like rabies and FVRCP, which protect against common and dangerous feline diseases. Our clinic team helps guide pet owners through recommended schedules, making preventative care simple and approachable. Vaccinations take just moments, and most animals experience minimal stress thanks to our staff's calming approach and fear-free training. Reserve your spot at our clinic to keep your Sierra Madre, CA, pet's immunity strong.
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.
Microchipping is one of the most reliable ways to ensure a lost pet can be reunited with their family. When your pet wanders off, their microchip tells rescuers exactly who they belong to and how to reach you. The quick microchipping procedure places a small, permanent identification chip beneath the skin, where it can be scanned by shelters and veterinary clinics across the country. For pet owners in Sierra Madre, CA, microchipping offers lasting peace of mind that collars and tags alone can’t provide. Pasadena Humane makes this service affordable and accessible, whether it’s scheduled on its own or combined with other clinic care. If you want to give yourself the confidence that your Sierra Madre, CA, companion always finds their way back to you, book your microchipping service today.
