Please share with anyone who wants to surrender their dog because they "don't have enough time".

It's a public safety issue, as well as an animal welfare crisis.

The Alliance is fighting for animals at the local level, too. Taxpayer-funded shelters and animal controls across Missouri are turning away strays, abuse/neglect victims, and owner surrenders. Refusing to accept stray animals is not only cruel to the animals left on the streets but poses a safety risk to the public. We need your help!

💻 Do your research! Is your county or city's tax-funded shelter currently taking in all strays, owner surrenders, and creating a humane living experience?

💬 Speak up! Contact your local elected officials and advocate for open-admission sheltering if your shelter is not already one. Speaking to local government officials matter!

📩 Unsure what to say? Reach out to the Alliance to learn how to effectively lobby your elected officials.

71 cats spayed/neutered for $1,780 = $25.00 per surgery! Obviously groups s/n'ing dogs can't achieve this, but it's so important to negotiate for vet services.

🌟🐾 JULY IMPACT – FRIENDS OF FERALS 🐾🌟

July has been smoking hot — but thanks to your support, these cats are no longer in heat 😻 and definitely appreciated that climate-controlled 76° during their short (but life-changing) stay with us! ❄️

📆 JULY 2025 STATS:
✂️ 71 cats spayed/neutered — $1,780
💉 Vaccinations & medical care — $365
🚗 476 miles driven to and from the vet
🐱 9 kittens transferred to licensed rescue partners

📦 $0 in operating expenses this month, and just $18.97 total this year (platform donation fees + sales tax)!
Thanks to donated transport, supplies, and utilities from our incredible volunteers, colony caretakers, and Good Samaritans 🙌
(We’ve budgeted just $332 for the entire year in non-vet expenses — so nearly every single penny goes straight to spay/neuter and veterinary care.)

⏳ Since October 2022, you’ve helped us:
✅ Spay/neuter 750 community cats
🚫 Prevent the birth of an estimated 46,200 kittens

That’s thousands of lives spared from suffering — and entire neighborhoods made healthier, safer, and stronger thanks to your compassion, time, and donations. 🐾💪

💙 Let’s keep the momentum going!
👉 Please consider donating — every dollar helps us fix the future.

🎉 And don’t miss our biggest event yet:
🗓️ Spay It Forward Celebration — August 9th, 2–4 PM
📍 American Legion, Willow Springs
🎁 Food, prizes, Cats Rock Scavenger Hunt reveal, and a matched grant fundraiser with United Spay Alliance — your gift could go TWICE as far!

From every paw we’ve helped to every mile we’ve driven — thank you. 💙
Let’s keep going. Together.

No pig jokes, please 🙂

Officer Estes of the Springfield Police Department adopted a pig named Flash after chasing it along West Chestnut Expressway, and promised to keep it safe from dangerous street crossings.
