By promoting pet adoption and spay/neuter, and supporting shelters and rescues in their efforts, we’re making sure pet owners get the support they need, so that no animal loses a home due to breed prejudices, lack of housing or access to pet services.
With the support of over 25 organizations, we launched a multi-year effort to spay and neuter cats and dogs across the island. Almost 60,000 animals—more than double our original goal—received much-needed veterinary care, vaccinations and spay/neuter services, all at no cost to the their families.
We’ve made great progress in saving more pets, but millions still enter animal shelters and rescues every year. One way you can help is to have your pets spayed or neutered. Fewer animals in need of shelter will help local shelters save more lives, and spay/neuter also has health and behavioral benefits for your pet. Looking for an adoptable cat or dog to add to your family? Through the Shelter Pet Project, you can connect with your new friend and help homeless pets.
