2024 CLINICS
May 11-12 and August 24-25
Please check our FACEBOOK PAGE for the latest information on our clinics.
Cascade County has a large population of low-income folks who just can’t afford to take their cat or dog to the local veterinarian to be altered.
TWICE A YEAR, we hold 2-day clinics for cats and dogs.
In 2015, when the future of the spay/neuter clinics was in question, the Humane Society of Cascade County stepped up to continue running them, recognizing how vital the twice-yearly clinics are to slowing pet overpopulation.
In 2023, we fixed
649 cats and 247 dogs. (As of November 2023). More than 13,728 total since 2006!
Although the twice-yearly clinics help with cat overpopulation, we still have too many unwanted cats and there are simply not enough homes for them. Cats can multiply at an incredible rate!
You may have seen a skittish cat in your alley, raiding your garbage. Caterwauling tomcats woke you in the wee hours. Local rescues are taking in cold and hungry cats, sometimes missing legs, or blinded by a pellet gun. Abandoned kittens have been found shivering, wet and covered with fleas in a downtown alley.
Our shelters and rescues are over capacity with no place for these cats and kittens to go. We must get ahead of this crisis … for our community and for the cats.
In 2023, we spent $112,884 on spay/neuter surgeries for dogs and cats,
and $27,428 on veterinary care.
Because of the huge number of cats that need to be fixed, HSCC also contracts with local veterinarians throughout the year when a spay/neuter clinic is not an option.
Providing these surgeries is expensive, so we need community support. Please give what you can to support our mission.
