Our Services
The Eaton County Humane Society Spay/Neuter Clinic and Wellness Center provides affordable spay and neuter services for cats, low-cost vaccinations for dogs and cats, and Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) for community cats in Eaton County including Charlotte, Lansing, Holt, Eaton Rapids, Grand Ledge, Olivet, and surrounding Mid-Michigan communities.
Our mission is to improve animal health, reduce pet overpopulation, and make essential veterinary care accessible to our community.
Low-Cost Spay & Neuter for Cats
We offer low-cost spay and neuter surgery for owned cats and community (free-roaming or feral) cats. Spaying and neutering helps prevent unwanted litters, reduces roaming and behavior issues, and lowers the risk of certain health conditions.
If a cat is identified as stray or feral, the left ear is humanely tipped during surgery. Ear tipping is the universal sign that a community cat has been spayed or neutered.
What’s Included in Our Cat Spay/Neuter Package
Every cat spay or neuter surgery includes:
- Spay or neuter procedure
- Long-acting pain medication injection
- Rabies vaccination
- Nail trim
- Check over for fleas, ticks, and ear mites
Additional vaccines and services may be available. Please refer to our current price list for details.
Please note: We are currently not offering spay and neuter services for dogs.
Low-Cost Pet Vaccinations and Diagnostic Testing
We provide low-cost vaccinations for cats and dogs to help protect against serious and preventable diseases. Vaccines strengthen your pet’s immune system and reduce the risk of illness or severe complications.
Vaccination schedules depend on your pet’s age, medical history, lifestyle, and exposure risk. Our veterinary team can help determine which vaccines are appropriate for your pet.

Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) for Community Cats
Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a humane, effective solution for managing feral and free-roaming cat populations in Eaton County. Cats are humanely trapped, spayed or neutered, vaccinated, ear-tipped for identification, and returned to their outdoor home.
Benefits of TNR
For Cats and Colonies
- Prevents new litters and reduces population growth
- Decreases fighting, mating behavior, and noise
- Reduces spraying and odor from unneutered males
For the Community
- · Fewer stray and feral cats over time
- · Lower shelter intake and euthanasia rates
- · Fewer animal control complaints
- · Long-term cost savings for municipalities
TNR improves cat welfare while creating healthier neighborhoods and sustainable population control.
