Veterinary Services

The Central Missouri Humane Society is proud to offer low-cost animal care. However, our clinic is not a replacement for a relationship with a full-service veterinarian and we are only able to offer a limited selection of services. For the long-term health and happiness of your pet, we recommend regular visits to a full-service veterinarian whenever possible.

Spay and Neuter

If you need financial assistance with your pet's spay or neuter, please call us at 573-443-7387, extension 204, and leave a voicemail.  We will contact you to schedule your appointment using one of our vouchers.  One voucher per household may be used per year.

We only schedule appointments 3 weeks in advance. If you do not see any dates on the calendar, that means all the appointments are full for the next 3 weeks. More dates will be added as the weeks progress. Please keep checking back.

Community Cat Program

CMHS offers a Community Cat Program to provide affordable spay/neuter services for the feral and free roaming cats in Boone County.

Scheduling an appointment:

Community cat trap, neuter and release (TNR) services are offered Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays on a first come, first served basis. The TNR cat MUST be in a humane live trap. CMHS loans out traps for a $25 deposit. The deposit is refunded when the trap is returned.

Drop off is at 7:30 AM with pick up being the following morning.

$25 program services include:

  • Sterilization surgery
  • Ear tip of the left ear
  • Rabies vaccination

Other Services

Microchipping is available for $15. Please call the shelter to schedule an appointment (typically for the same day, if our vet staff has availability).
