Bend Spay + Neuter Program

Bend’s Low Cost Spay Neuter Clinic Temporarily Closing

The Humane Society of Central Oregon (HSCO) has been forced to make the difficult decision to close the Bend Spay + Neuter Clinic for an extended period of time due to a staff shortage. The clinic’s last day for services will be Friday, September 10, 2021.
HSCO Administration had a new medical team in place, however, a sudden resignation of the Medical Director has changed the direction the organization has to take. HSCO’s Executive Director, Sabrina Slusser said, “While this is an extremely difficult decision, we have to be realistic of our ability to hire talented veterinary staff in such a competitive market. We know that there is a shortage of veterinarians and certified veterinary technicians, both locally and nationally, and it will take time to attract and hire the right people for these positions.”
The Humane Society of Central Oregon will increase the availability of our Spay Neuter Assistance Program (SNAP) vouchers for those that have proof of need. To obtain a SNAP voucher for a cat or dog spay or neuter surgery at a discounted rate, individuals will need to come to HSCO’s shelter (61170 SE 27th Street, Bend 97702) and show proof of government assistance. Vouchers are valid at participating private veterinary clinics. There is a minimal fee for the voucher depending on if it is for a cat or dog and the gender of the pet.
The Humane Society of Central Oregon’s Community Cat Program will continue within Central Oregon. This program traps and alters feral or community cats and places them back in the area they came from. Last year this program altered over 800 community cats. When a mother cat comes in with kittens, HSCO Foster volunteers can often socialize the kittens so that they can be placed for adoption.

Your bottle and can donations raise money to support HSCO's program and services, including spay and neuter. Please take bottles/cans to HSCO Shelter (61170 SE 27th St in Bend) or Humane Society of Central Oregon Thrift Store (61220 S. Highway 97 across from Walmart & Dutch Bros). Thank You!
