S.N.I.P
Spay Neuter Initiative Program
S.N.I.P.'s mission is to reduce the number of unwanted litters and eliminate the suffering of animals through spay and neuter programs within Callaway County. We strive to accomplish this by offering vouchers to residents to help offset the cost of spay and neuter services for their pets and feral animals in need within the community. In addition to vouchers, we work to provide advanced spay and neuter education and encourage responsible animal ownership.
Without spay and neuter programs like S.N.I.P., homeless animals are often euthanized, neglected or die of disease. Sterilization is critical for management of free-roaming dogs and cats and related disease control concerns. Sterilizing pets prevents them from contributing to the problem of homeless or abandoned dogs and cats.
Spay and Neuter programs also protect against some serious health problems and may reduce many of the behavioral problems associated with the mating instinct.
Limit 1 voucher per household per year
NOTICE
Important Update to Our SNIP Voucher Policy
Effective January 1, 2026, all SNIP vouchers will expire 90 days from the date they are issued.
Good News: All vouchers issued during 2025 will continue to have a 6-month expiration date and are not affected by this change.
We are making this adjustment due to a high number of vouchers being requested but not used in a timely manner, as well as attempts to redeem expired vouchers.
Remember, SNIP vouchers provide a $50 savings toward the cost of spaying or neutering your pet at participating veterinary clinics. These vouchers are available to Callaway County residents only.
Thank you for your understanding and for helping us support responsible pet care in our community!
