We get calls inquiring if we offer low cost Spay and Neuter services for dogs. Unfortunately at this time, we do not have a program set up.

However, Macon county has been able to get a program going for the winter!

Please, please, please, take advantage of this!

Updates regarding our Spay/Neuter Clinic:

With winter approaching we will be temporarily pausing our Trap, Neuter, Vaccinate, Return program starting December. It gets too cold to put a feral cat back outside with shaved bellies. If we get some nicer days we may reach out to those who are on our current waiting list. When the temperatures get warmer again we will resume TNR.

With fewer TNR cats we will have more appointment slots to fill. We have decided to open up our low income program to pet owners in counties surrounding Macon county, IL. These counties include: Piatt, Moultrie, Dewitt, Logan, Shelby, Christian, and we will continue to aid Sangamon county pets. We unfortunately are not able to offer TNR for feral cats outside of Macon county quite yet.

You can apply for our low cost, low income Spay/Neuter program by:
•Visiting https://new.shelterluv.com/form/community/HSDM/212778-spay-neuter-clinic-pet-application
•Sending us your email address to our spay/neuter phone to request an emailed application.
•Come in to the Humane Society during normal open hours (Wednesday-Saturday noon-4pm) if you prefer to do everything in-person.

Note: There may be a wait to get your pet in. If there is an urgent situation such as a possible pregnancy, please contact our clinic (217) 809-1877.
Additionally, animals without vet confirmation or physical record of current vaccination will be updated on two vaccines. Rabies (1 year) and Distemper (1 year) are $10 each +$15 annual tag registration to the City of Decatur for Macon county pets if receiving Rabies vaccination.
Household income proof is required to verify eligibility.

Optional add-ons:
•Microchip with registration (links your information to your pet if they ever get lost)- $10
•Topical or oral flea prevention (1 month)- $10
•24 hour flea prevention (Capstar)- $5
•Ecollar/Cone: $10
•Cardboard cat carrier: $10
•Ear mite treatment (Acarexx): $5
