OUR MISSION TO REDUCE PET OVER-POPULATION, BEFORE A DISASTER STRIKES! OUR TARGET MARKET: Johnson County, Missouri and the five surrounding counties.  OUR TARGET CLIENTS: low-income.  OUR TARGET PATIENTS: Dogs, Cats.

Information from the US CENSUS BUREAU, 2000.

Estimated Client Populations: Johnson County, Missouri (48,258), Pettis County, Missouri (39,403), Lafayette County, Missouri (32,960), Henry County, Missouri (21,997), Cass County, Missouri (82,092), Eastern Jackson County, Missouri [Lone Jack, Lee's Summit, Blue Springs, Grain Valley, Oak Grove, Buckner, Sibley, Levasy, Lake Lotawana] (150,000).

Estimated Patient Population: 100,000 Households at or below low-income of $35,000 per year.  Average of each household having 2.5 pets = 250,000 pets.  

These numbers do not include animal shelters, animal rescue groups and the feral dogs and cats located throughout the counties.  Estimated 150,000 animals among this category.

Performing 200 surgery's per month x 12 months = 2400 animals per year.  To spay/neuter all of these estimated animals it is going to take 10+ years!  Estimated that each year one dog produces one litter of 8.  One cat produces two litters of 6 each year.  However, by performing 2400 spay/neuters per year this BEGINS to decrease the problems - within TWO YEARS results of the pet over population will begin to be noticed!  This will begin to reduce the 60-70% of animals that are euthanized each year because of there NOT being enough homes for all of them.

We are in a dark tunnel in these counties, but we all agree that the answer is to start doing something by ACTIONS, and we will begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Through this project and voucher programs, we can make a difference in these counties that continue to increase in population of humans and ANIMALS.
