Are cats spayed or neutered before adoption?

Under Indiana State Law and The Porter County Animal Control Ordinance, all of our adoptable animals must be spayed or neutered, vaccinated and microchipped before they leave the shelter for their new forever home. If the cat you have adopted has not been spayed or neutered, please allow for up to five days before you can take your new cat home.
