Our Mission

The Central Spay Neuter and Wellness Clinic provides low cost, high quality spay and neuter surgeries and vaccines for domestic and feral cats and dogs. We average 7800-8000 surgeries per year.  Our mission will reduce the unwanted pet overpopulation and promote animal health and safety to the community.

 Specifically, our mission is to provide low cost high volume spay and neuter surgeries and to promote animal health and safety for our community. Our focus is to sterilize healthy cats and dogs in order to eliminate unwanted animals.

Statistics on Pet Overpopulation & the Solution

• Number of cats and dogs entering shelters each year: 6-8 million (HSUS estimate)

• Number of cats and dogs euthanized by shelters each year: 3-4 million (HSUS estimate)

• Number of animal shelters in the United States: between 4,000 and 6,000 (HSUS estimate)

• Average number of litters a fertile, 5 month old cat can produce in one year: 3

• Average number of kittens in a feline litter: 4-6

• Average number of litters a fertile dog can produce in one year: 2

• Average number of puppies in a canine litter: 6-10

• In seven years, one female cat and her offspring can theoretically produce 420,000 cats.

• In six years, one female dog and her offspring can theoretically produce 67,000 dogs.

The solution is this:

By implementing widespread sterilization programs, only by spaying and neutering companion animals not utilized for breeding by responsible breeders wishing to promote the breed, will we get a handle on pet overpopulation. Consider the fact that in six short years, one female dog and her offspring can give birth to 67,000 puppies. In seven years, one cat and her young can produce 420,000 kittens. Given these high reproductive rates, it stands to reason that, in only a few years, carefully planned and implemented sterilization programs could produce a dramatic reduction in the number of unwanted companion animals born. In fact, in those towns and cities that have implemented such programs, we’ve already seen the number of companion animals who had to be euthanized decline by 30 to 60 percent – even in those communities where human populations have been steadily increasing.
