The Spay Neuter Intervention Project (S.N.I.P.) aims to make public spay and neuter of companion animals in Pima County more timely and accessible through the cultivation of community based, innovative programs and targeted spay/neuter promotions and events. Spay/neuter is a key component to controlling population. It is a life saving measure that not only helps keeps animals out of pounds and she
lters, but opens up resources for the ones who are already there. is a collaboration between Spay and Neuter Solutions, Tucson CARES and No Kill Pima County. We hope that through collaboration and community support, to “intervene” in a community crisis. Currently, the county's only "free" program is highly restrictive, has unexpected or mandatory fees and has an extensive wait time of up to 7 months. Providing timely and accessible spay/neuter services not only improves the quality of life for each animal, it could significantly impact the number of animals needlessly destroyed in Pima County, as it has done in other communities.
