Shelter Medicine

In addition to providing care for the animals in our shelters, our Shelter Medicine Team provides support for our community’s animals by offering free spay and neuter surgeries for community cats through our Trap-Neuter-Return Program. They provided these critical services to 1,110 felines last year.

They also provide reduced-cost spay and neuter surgeries to other animal welfare groups who don’t have a robust Shelter Medicine Program. Last year, they performed spay and neuter surgeries on 2,353 shelter animals from other organizations so they could be quickly placed for adoption, in addition to the 3,449 spay and neuter surgeries they performed on animals at Atlanta Humane. We were able to help our partners at organizations including LifeLine Animal Services – DeKalb County Animal Services, Dog Days Rescue, FurKids, Toccoa Stephens County Humane Society, and Butts County Animal Shelters.
