What Prevent Unwanted Pets does
Mission
Provide funds for pet owners who cannot afford to have their pets spayed & neutered to prevent over breeding. In addition, to foster and re-home abandoned animals.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
The organization spayed or neutered 5,936 dogs and cats between 11/01/2024 through 10/31/2025. Individuals who call for spay/neuter assistance are required to pay their veterinarian a minimum fee of $35.00, or more, if possible. We do not turn away anyone who needs help.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2024 to 2025, from $254k to $76k (−70%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
100% of PREVENT UNWANTED PETS’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (86% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
Against its field
PREVENT UNWANTED PETS's funding base is broadening — from 1 funders to 3 as grant income climbed.
