Humane Society of Lawton-Comanche County
Spay and Neuter Program (SNAP)

Spay and Neuter Program 

It is a program that provides assistance to pet owners who otherwise cannot afford to alter their animals. The Humane Society of Lawton-Comanche County uses grants, donations and fund raiser’s monies to support this important program. We believe that an unaltered pet will increase the number of unwanted cats and dogs that eventually are abandoned, receive inadequate care, and/ or are abused.  The animals that are found wandering the streets and alleys usually come from a home that was unable to care for the animal or abandoned by people to move away and chose not to take the pet. 
Pet owners who have the need to spay/neuter their pets who cannot afford the operation may call the Humane Society and ask for help. 
Receiving these funds is based on numerous criteria and will be evaluated by the SNAP committee. The criterion includes, but is not necessary an only factor: 
  • Elderly pet owners living on a fixed income
  • Citizens temporarily out of work, illness or disability. 
When a decision is made, a voucher for the operation will be given to their vet to perform the service. The grants do not pay for shots or medical attention, but the Humane Society may opt to pay for those services if deemed appropriate. Data shows that one cat that is not altered can produce 2 litters in a year.  Large dogs usually have the larger litters than the smaller breed and are more costly to maintain.  We urge you to spay/neuter your pets. This action will benefit you as the owner, the community and most importantly, the animal.  There is also a low cost spay/neuter clinic in Lawton. Animal Birth Control (ABC) Clinic is located at 85 NE 20th Street. Lawton, Ok.
