The Humane Educational Society (HES) of Chattanooga wrapped up the first week of surgeries following the soft opening of the new low-cost spay/neuter clinic to the public.

By providing affordable spay and neuter options, HES hopes to decrease the number of unwanted litters, as well as decrease the number of animals that require sheltering and the number of strays in the community.

HES's Community Spay/Neuter Clinic is offering their services to all members of the community, regardless of county residence or jurisdiction.

"We're thrilled to finally offer public spay and neuter services - a milestone we've worked toward for a long time," says Interim Executive Director Dr. Tai Federico. "This new program will make a real difference for the people and pets of Hamilton County and beyond.”
