After experiencing last year’s high demand and issuing 524 vouchers, the grant funding ran out. This year, the shelter needs to raise funds to make the program successful. The prices for a spay or neuter procedure can be as low as $50 for cats at low-cost shelters, according to animal services. As for dogs, the surgeries can cost up to several hundred dollars.
