Our mission:

To reduce the number of cats being given away for free and to further reduce the cat overpopulation problem. We strive to fill in gaps by seeking out people in need of help with spay and neuter, as well as offering transportation, when needed.

We help both owned pets and feral/stray cats.


We prioritize underserved and overpopulated areas, specifically the west end of Louisville.


When funding is available, we sponsor the spay/neuter cost for cats in rural areas of Kentucky.

  • Helping Reduce Cat Overpopulation:

    At Spay Anyway, we firmly believe that spaying and neutering is the compass guiding us towards a sustainable future for cats and the communities they inhabit. Spaying and neutering are not merely procedures; they are acts of compassion that hold the key to curbing the heartbreaking plight of homeless cats. By preventing unplanned pregnancies, we help alleviate the proliferation of stray and abandoned felines.

    These simple surgeries bring about immeasurable benefits: reducing the strain on overcrowded shelters, safeguarding the health of individual cats, and fostering a harmonious coexistence between humans and their furry friends.

    When a cat is spayed or neutered, it becomes less likely to roam, reducing their chances of being injured or encountering other perils such as fights or traffic accidents. Additionally, behavioral issues like spraying, yowling, or aggression are often mitigated after the procedure, making them more amenable to living indoors. This ensures both their safety and the tranquility of their human companions, creating loving and lasting bonds.

    By embracing the ethos of spaying and neutering, we empower ourselves as responsible caretakers of our feline friends. Yet, we acknowledge that cost can be a barrier for some. At Spay Anyway, we strive to make the procedure accessible to all, offering assistance programs, affordable options, and partnering with local organizations for outreach initiatives.

    Together, we can make the choice to reduce cat overpopulation an accessible and viable option for every cat lover.

    Join us in our mission to create a world where all cats have the chance to thrive, free from the hardships of overpopulation. Together, through the simple act of spaying and neutering, we can pave the way for a balanced and compassionate future—a future where every cat finds a loving forever home, and where the beauty of their presence enriches our lives in countless ways.
