We service Lake County and surrounding area.
And for proof — albeit on a small scale — that it works, consider this: The city of Waukegan implemented a trap, neuter, release program (TNR) for cats in partnership with Spay and Stay, a Lake County organization that promotes and facilitates TNR. “When I first worked here (in 2004), we had lines of cats in carriers down the halls there were so many cats.” The cat intake in 2004 was over 3,000 cats a year. Now that number is under 400. However, Waukegan and Spay and Stay have requirements for TNR which include a community caretaker to feed the cats and provide shelter for them.

An organic and compassionate coalition of city officials, volunteers, donors, veterinarians, cops and dedicated animal control officers have transformed Waukegan Animal Control into a de facto no-kill shelter.
We serve all of Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana & Iowa.
What’s the big message that Susan Elliot, the director of Waukegan (Illinois) animal control, has for reducing the number of unwanted animals? Spay and neuter! She told ShelterMe that’s the biggest need and the most important thing any large city must do.
