WTSN is a 501c3 non-profit. See us on Guidestar.

WTSN has helped fix over 1,500 pets.
Many of these pets were having litters or were very young. If these surgeries prevented an average of five offspring per pet...

...we may have prevented the breeding of 7,500 dogs, cats and feral cats
that would be at risk of homelessness.


Spay/neuter is smart use of a community's resources to benefit animal welfare.

"The only humane method of population control that has demonstrated a correlation with long-term efficacy in significantly reducing the number of animals entering animal shelters is the voluntary sterilization of owned pets.  Rescue of neglected pets often requires extensive veterinarian care and huge amounts of volunteer time. For families, the cost of a low-cost spay/neuter surgery is less than that of caring for a litter.  The cost of housing, vetting, feeding, and euthanizing an animal in a shelter is higher than a low-cost spay/neuter."
