The Kansas Humane Society is a private, non-profit organization that receives nearly 15,000 animals each year from citizens unable or unwilling to care for them. Protecting pets since 1888, the Society receives no government, national humane association or United Way funding and depends entirely on private donations and adoption fees.

Spay day was created by the Doris Day Animal League in 1995 and became a program of The Humane Society of the United States in 2006. According to The Humane Society of the United States, it’s not just rabbits that multiply like rabbits. During Spay Day’s first 13 years, participants spayed or neutered an estimated 1,387,000 animals nationwide.
