Pet overpopulation is the leading killer of cats and dogs in our country. Each year, over four million sheltered animals are euthanized to make room for more. Taxpayers spend up to $2 billion each year for services to collect, house, destroy and dispose of these animals.
AnimalKind® is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Raleigh, NC. Nearly 20,000 sheltered animals die as victims of pet overpopulation every year in our area. There will never be enough homes for them all. PREVENTION IS THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THE DEADLY CYCLE OF PET OVERPOPULATION.
RESEARCH INDICATES THAT 80% OF PET OVERPOPULATION
COMES FROM AS FEW AS 3% OF PET OWNERS
WHO CAN'T AFFORD THE COST OF SPAY/NEUTER SURGERY.
In direct response to this reality, AnimalKind launched THE $20 FIX - a targeted financial assistance program serving low-income pet owners. Over 5000 pets have already been spayed or neutered for a client co-pay of $20 or less, and hundreds more have been approved for surgeries. We need your help to continue!
AnimalKind recognizes that the pet overpopulation crisis can’t
be “fixed” easily or quickly. But our targeted financial assistance
program addresses the very source of the crisis that is killing
tens of thousands of pets in the Triangle every year. Learn more,
