What the bid is for

The Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners is seeking licensed Veterinarians with permitted veterinary establishment(s) to provide spay, neuter, ear-tipping, and vaccination services for community feral cats trapped within Hillsborough County for a one (1)-year period.

The program is exclusively for stray community feral cats/kittens trapped within Hillsborough County. The program is intended to provide funding to assist citizens, trappers, and rescue organizations within Hillsborough County with controlling community feral and free-roaming cat populations through sterilization and vaccination services.

Scope

The Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners (County) is seeking licensed Veterinarians with permitted veterinary establishment(s) to provide spay, neuter, ear-tipping, and vaccination services for community feral cats trapped within Hillsborough County for the Pet Resources Department (PRD) for a one (1)-year period.

[...] The Offeror/Contractor or principal thereof shall, at time of submission and throughout the term of the resulting Contract, maintain a brick-and-mortar veterinary establishment, in Hillsborough County, providing spay, neuter, ear-tipping, and vaccination services.

The Offeror/Contractor shall utilize Veterinarians properly licensed in the State of Florida, and shall, upon County request, provide a valid Florida Veterinary license for each Veterinarian performing services under the resulting Contract.

The County will authorize trappers, rescue organizations, or citizens to take community feral cats/kittens to the Contractor for services as described herein. The County will issue a designated form or certificate showing authorization for the services. The certificate shall be surrendered to the Contractor and forwarded to the County with the applicable invoice for payment.

The Contractor shall provide each community feral cat/kitten with a rabies vaccination and Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus and Panleukopenia (FVRCP) vaccination.

No additional Services are authorized for County payment. Additional Services may be arranged privately between the Contractor and the trapper, rescue organization, or citizen at their own expense.

The Contractor shall perform sterilization, ear-tipping, and required vaccinations on each eligible community feral cat/kitten presented under the program.

When surgical preparation or surgery has begun and the Contractor determines that the cat/kitten has already been sterilized or is not a candidate for sterilization, the Contractor shall provide the applicable ear-tipping and vaccinations as appropriate.

The Contractor shall submit the following information to PRD with each monthly invoice and all applicable County-issued certificates:

  • Date of surgery;
  • Name of the veterinarian performing the procedure;
  • Type of procedure performed, including spay or neuter, as applicable;
  • Description of the cat; and
