Tait's Every Animal Matters


			Overpopulation is the number one killer of cats worldwide, but in Connecticut, the TEAM Mobile Feline Unit is saving lives and preventing the birth of countless unwanted kittens. Since 1997, the TEAM Mobile Feline Unit has been bringing affordable spay/neuter and vaccination services to communities statewide so that more cats can be sterilized before they reproduce. The fee of $77 includes a brief exam, spay/neuter, vaccinations (rabies, distemper, upper/lower respiratory infection), nail trim and ear mite treatment (if necessary). Medication to control parasites such as worms, fleas, and ticks is also available. TEAM is on the road at least five days weekly. The clinic parks for the day at one of TEAM’s many host sites throughout Connecticut. Cats arrive in the morning for check-in and surgery is performed on the vehicle in a state-of-the-art environment. Cats are discharged the same day and caretakers receive simple, post-surgical instructions. TEAM has a 24-hour hotline and a veterinarian on-call. TEAM veterinarians are spay/neuter specialists who perform more than 12,000 surgeries annually. Our success rate is an unprecedented 99.97 percent, so you can be sure your cat will get the best possible care on the TEAM Mobile Feline Unit. Like the American Veterinary Medical Association, TEAM advocates early- aged spay/neuter as a way to reduce the number of unwanted pets. Although TEAM recommends that most cats be 16 weeks of age or older before coming aboard, feral, stray, or homeless kittens awaiting adoption can be sterilized as young as 10 weeks of age.
