Free Stray Cat Spaying and Neutering Programme in Singapore

The Stray Cat Spaying and Neutering Programme (SCSP) was launched in 2011 and is funded by the National Parks Board/AVS to sterilize and microchip community cats in Singapore. Over the past 5 years, an average of 4,000 cats have been sterilized each year under the programme.

Stray Cat Sterilisation Programme (SCSP)

The Stray Cat Sterilisation Programme (SCSP) is a collaborative venture between the SPCA and AVS to further reduce the number of community cats in Housing and Development Board (HDB) estates. This service is provided free, with the AVS and SPCA funding the costs equally.

The SCSP replaced the sterilisation voucher scheme in mid-2015. Under the new programme, the SPCA will provide training for volunteers and mediators to work with community feeders, encouraging sterilisations, responsible feeding, and public education.

Who is eligible for the Stray Cat Sterilisation Programme?

The SCSP programme is available to community cat feeders who are 18 years old and above.

Under the programme, community cats in Housing and Development Board (HDB) estates can be taken to the SPCA clinic or participating veterinary clinics for free sterilisation strictly by appointment only.

Community cats living beyond the confines of HDB neighbourhoods, such as those in industrial and private housing estates, or farms and outer fringe areas, can be sterilised for a nominal sum of $25.
