About Us
The Eaton County Humane Society has been part of the community since 1968, built on a simple but powerful goal: to improve the lives of animals and the people who care for them.
For many years, that work looked like sheltering animals and helping them find new homes. In 2008, we opened a shelter facility in Olivet, Michigan, where we cared for and rehomed hundreds of animals each year. It was meaningful work, but over time, it became clear that we could make an even greater impact by addressing the root of the problem: pet overpopulation and lack of access to affordable veterinary care.
In 2018, we made the decision to evolve.
We transitioned from a traditional shelter model into what we are today: a low-cost spay/neuter clinic and wellness center, focused on prevention, accessibility, and long-term community impact.
Today, we no longer house animals on-site. Instead, our work happens at the front lines: providing essential services that help keep pets healthy, prevent unwanted litters, and support both pet owners and community cat caregivers.
What We Do
At the Eaton County Humane Society Spay/Neuter Clinic and Wellness Center, we provide:
- Low-cost spay and neuter services for cats, including owned and community (feral/free-roaming) cats
- Vaccinations for both cats and dogs
- Preventive care services such as testing, microchipping, and parasite treatment
Every cat we spay or neuter helps prevent future litters. Every vaccine helps protect a life. Every appointment is an opportunity to make care more accessible for someone who might not otherwise have it.
Why It Matters
We believe that access to affordable veterinary care should not be out of reach. By focusing on prevention and community-based solutions like Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR),
we’re able to reduce suffering, improve public health, and create a more sustainable future for animals in our region.
Powered by Community
We are an independent, charitable 501(c)(3) organization. We are not a county agency and do not receive government funding. Every service we provide is made possible through donations, local business support, and the dedication of our volunteers.
This work belongs to the community, and it only continues because of that support.
Hours & Contact Information
The clinic is currently open Monday through Thursday, with occasional Friday vaccine clinics.
