Spay and neuter helps prevent the overpopulation of cats and dogs across Washington. We can't solve the pet overpopulation crisis through adoptions alone, we must also prevent unwanted and accidental pregnancies. Cats and dogs can have up to two litters per year and those puppies and kittens can have their first litter before they are one! Sadly, there are thousands of dogs and cats in our state who are already homeless and waiting for their chance at a forever home; more unwanted puppies and kittens born fill already crowded shelters. So, you can see how important it is to spay or neuter your pet! (Note, females are spayed and males are are neutered.)
Our Safety Net Program supports clients who can’t afford the cost to spay or neuter their cat; when this occurs, we cover the full or partial cost of the surgery (at select clinics).
Our Spay and Neuter Increase Program (SNIP) increases the number of high quality, low-cost cat and dog spay and neuter surgeries being performed in Washington State. To tackle the overpopulation issue, we create new and expand current spay and neuter programs throughout the state. We focus on areas with high rates of cat and dog overpopulation where there are few affordable surgery options; we identify partners that can provide the high quality and low-cost surgeries; and, we raise funds and give administrative support to facilitate the surgeries.

If you live in Grant County and need financial support to spay (female) or neuter (male) your dog, we are partnering with Hands N' Paws and Sagehill Veterinary clinic, the co-pay is $45. Apply at https://petstablished.com/petlover/general_form/33184
Reservations are required. Puppies must be at least two months old and weigh at least two pounds; due to additional surgery risks, no dogs over the age of seven, please.

Note, if there is no verification, the rabies vaccination is mandatory and will be administered for all animals.
Our 2021 goal is to complete more than 160 spay and neuter surgeries for the dogs of lower income residents of Grant County thanks to a grant from Washington Federation of Animal Care and Control Agencies (due to grant stipulations, caretakers must reside in Moses Lake, Soap Lake and Ephrata).
