Spay & Neuter Programs
Public Pet Option
Spaying or neutering is a surgical procedure for pets to prevent unwanted litters, help pets live healthier lives, and to help control the animal population. Our shelter offers a low-cost spay/neuter service to low-income families and individuals who make less than $50,000 per year per household in Sumner County, KS. Click the button below to fill out the application. Or you may come to the shelter to ask for a paper copy in person. You will need to provide proof of income. Once approved for services, an appointment for procedures will be made with our contracted veterinarian, and for a reduced fee, we will get your pet fixed. Due to the cost of veterinarian services, there are a limited number of low-cost spays/neuters per month, so there may be a waiting period. There are a few optional services listed below that you can select during your appointment. Full payment is expected at time of service. If you need to make payments, please also enroll in the Payment Plan Program below.
*Note: We cannot accommodate brachycephalic breeds (French Bulldogs, Bulldogs, and Pugs). Boxers are okay.
Costs range depending on sex and size of dog.
Dogs $80-$140
Cats $50-$100
TNR Option
We are also offering a $50 spay/neuter service for feral and neighborhood cats in Sumner County. We are working to fix the large feral population by helping to make this service more affordable. There is no income limit to this service, but it must be a feral or neighborhood cat. (Neighborhood cat = cat that has no owner but is friendly and several people may feed.) These cats will have their ear tip clipped to recognize them as fixed feral/neighborhood cats. If you want to learn more about TNR, visit our webpage HERE. Click on the button below to fill out the application.
PLEASE NOTE: ALL TNR CATS MUST BE IN A LIVE TRAP! If you do not have one, ask us for a loaner and if we have one available you are free to use it. Even if the cat is "nice", it MUST BE IN A LIVE TRAP, not a kennel/crate! If you do not do this, you will be charged $15 per cat for the time and personnel it takes to move them to a live trap. This is for the safety of the cat and our staff. If a bite occurs you will be charged a boarding fee for the 10-day bite hold if the cat was not in a live trap.
>>You must pay IN FULL at the time of service. If you cannot do that, please see our new payment plan.
We pay a veterinarian to come in to complete these services. We do fundraising to keep our doors open, so we cannot afford to vet your pet free of charge.

We have a way to make payments in order to get your pet fixed!
This is designed to help anyone afford to get their pet fixed. We only offer spay and neuter services. We do not treat other medical issues. This program includes: spay or neuter, rabies vaccination, FVRCP/DHPP, and a cone for your pet. The fee will be given to you by our staff once you've submitted your information. Fees vary based on program, animal size, and sex.
You can only apply for one pet at a time!
​
This payment plan is for the Public/TNR Spay & Neuter Program. You must read the information and agree to the terms to participate. You must prepay in order to get your pet on our surgery schedule. We do not limit the time it takes to pay the whole total, but you must make a payment at least once a month to keep an active account with us. If you decide at any time to stop payments for any reason, what you have paid will be considered a donation. We will not issue refunds.
If the surgery is for a pet, then you must provide proof of income to info@wellingtonhumanesociety.org or in person during our regular business hours (Wed-Fri 3-7pm, Sat 10am-2pm). If this is a TNR cat, no proof of income is required.
​
>>You must also fill out the Spay/Neuter Application (above) and select "Payment Plan" on the form.
We accept cash, credit, debit, and PayPal. We DO NOT accept checks for this program.
