Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Low Cost Spay and Neuter
The Humane Society of Mason County is dedicated to reducing the number of unwanted litters of puppies and kittens. In 2009, with funds from generous donors and numerous fundraisers, a spay/neuter program was established to fulfill this important need. We help provide low cost spay and neuter surgeries at our Belfair Clinic.
Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR)
Trap-neuter-return (TNR) is a program in which outdoor (feral) cats are humanely trapped, spayed or neutered, vaccinated, ear-tipped and returned to the location where they were found. Colony caretakers provide food, water and shelter as necessary. TNR is the most humane and effective method for stabilizing and eventually reducing outdoor cat populations. Left unsterilized, the feral cats and their offspring would continue to reproduce, potentially introducing thousands of unwanted cats into the community.
