Robinson's Rescue Low-Cost Spay/Neuter

In 2005, a group of concerned citizens of Shreveport began meeting regularly to learn about the best practices in other communities that successfully lowered pet overpopulation and, in turn, the euthanasia of healthy, adoptable pets. After conducting extensive research, they learned that spay/neuter initiatives have proven to be the most effective, humane means to decrease pet overpopulation and determined that a low-cost, high-quality, high-volume spay/neuter clinic was the answer. Thus, on September 15, 2008, Robinson's Rescue was founded as the first clinic of its kind in the state of Louisiana and one of only 190 ASPCA Spay/Neuter Alliance clinics in all of the United States.

Since 2008, Robinson's Rescue has helped over 92,000 cats and dogs receive affordable spay and neuter surgeries, reducing the number of puppies and kittens born in Northwest Louisiana by millions. By removing the financial obstacle through affordable pricing and securing individual donor and grant funding, we ensure all pet owners can afford spay and neuter services.

We operate 3 separate programs to realize our mission:

The first program we operate is our low-cost spay/neuter program, which is available to any pet-owner regardless of income. Secondly, we operate a free spay/neuter program called the Subsidized Spay/Neuter Incentive Program (SSNIP), which provides pets owned by local, low-income residents with free spay/neuter and rabies vaccinations. Finally, we operate a Community Outreach Program in which we participate in local animal wellness and animal-related information fairs in order to educate local residents about spay/neuter and provide them with applications for free spay/neuter through SSNIP.
