Program Overview

In fall 2025, the Kansas Department of Agriculture’s Division of Animal Health offered funds in the form of cost share assistance to licensed companion animal facilities to help offset the cost of spaying and neutering cats and dogs in rural, unserved, and underserved Kansas communities. The Spay and Neuter Cost Share Program was designed to reimburse an eligible entity up to 75% of the cost of spay and neuter surgeries for cats and dogs up to $4,000 per applicant.

Program Purpose

Spaying and neutering pets is crucial in addressing pet overpopulation and reducing behavioral and health problems associated with intact adult cats and dogs. Supporting this effort to spay and neuter cats and dogs in Kansas supports the mission of the KDA Division of Animal Health, as it strives to ensure the health and welfare of domestic animals in Kansas.
