Together, We Keep Pets Healthy, Families Together, and Our Animal Community Strong

Pets bring so much comfort, joy, and unconditional love—yet too many pet owners face heartbreaking obstacles in meeting even their pets' basic needs. Area shelters fill, rescues stretch themselves thin, pets are abandoned, and far too many animals face preventable suffering.

But every single day, because of people like you, we are changing that story.

What We DO

Our mission is simple: Provide a humane, affordable and accessible solution to reduce pet overpopulation and improve the lives of companion animals in our community. We provide spay/neuter services, essential vaccines, and basic wellness care at prices pet owners can afford. Every surgery we perform keeps pets with their families, prevents unwanted litters, and gives rescues, shelters, and TNR programs the resources and capacity to focus on the animals who need them most. By removing financial barriers to essential veterinary care, The Spay Neuter Project stops suffering before it starts—and saves lives.

Making a Difference in 2025

Your gift through ComoGives last year allowed our clinic to meet rising needs, expand financial assistance for pet owners, and provide critical support to our rescue and TNR partners working on the front lines.

Here’s a glimpse of what your support has made possible so far this year!


Why Your Gift Matters

Together, we are changing the story. Your gift today will help us:

  • Keep Pets with Families – affordable care and subsidized surgeries ensure pets stay with the people who love them.
  • Protect Pets & Communities – lifesaving vaccines safeguard pets and protect the community
  • Prevent Unwanted Litters – fewer accidental and unwanted litters enter rescues and shelters, freeing resources and saving lives
  • Support TNR– Humane population control lowers suffering and keeps community cats safer.
  • Sustain Our Clinic – your gift offsets essential medical supplies and supports our dedicated and highly skilled veterinary team- the heart of our mission.

A Decade of Compassion in Action

The Spay Neuter Project began more than a decade ago when a small group of animal-loving women saw a critical gap in our community and stepped forward to create a solution. What started as a grassroots vision quickly became a reality—made possible only through the generosity and commitment of our community.

Centrally located at Providence and the Business Loop in Columbia, and fueled by your support, our small but mighty Veterinary Team has performed 35,000+ spay/neuter surgeries, administered 60,000+ lifesaving vaccines, and provided compassionate care to 45,000+ animals.

Today, in partnership with 20+ rescues and TNR groups, your continued support strengthens the entire animal welfare network across Mid-Missouri and neighboring communities.

These milestones reflect far more than numbers—they represent healthier pets, supported families, and a community where every animal matters.

💙 Join Us

Your support makes it possible for us to create a community where every pet is wanted, cared for, and loved. Because of you, pets stay out of shelters, off the streets, and home with the families who cherish them.

No matter the size, every gift counts—every pet matters. Please make your year-end donation today and be part of this life-saving work for our beloved furry friends.

Thank you for helping save lives—one healthy, loved pet, one surgery at a time.
