*Animal Protection (the Borough Animal Shelter) is not affiliated with the Ketchikan Humane Society though we work cooperatively toward the common goal of improved animal welfare in Ketchikan. If you are looking for the Shelter please click here: Animal Protection or call 907-228-6660.
spay neuter INCENTIVE program (SNIP)
We strongly believe that spaying and neutering pets is the best way to keep them healthy and happy and the best way to prevent unwanted animals in our community. If you or someone you know needs financial assistance to alter a cat or a dog, please consider our program for assistance.

KHS is currently in the process of building a new board of directors. We are not taking animals into rescue at this time, but the Spay/Neuter Incentive Program is still up and running! Thank you for your understanding during this transitionary time.

What We've Done
KHS has been rescuing since 2001 but formal statistics were not retained until 2009. We estimate that 300+ animals were rescued in the first eight years.
Since Dr. Marna opened Island to Island Veterinary Clinic in Ketchikan in 2012 we've been able to target feral cat populations in Ketchikan and offer a permanent low cost spay/neuter program. In 2016 Stonetree Veterinary Clinic started participating in the low cost spay/neuter program allowing us to cover more animals and to get them in more quickly.
Animals Rescued since 2009: 1000+
