Each year about 160,000 dogs and cats enter Colorado shelters and, sadly, each year over 38,000 unwanted, surplus or abandoned animals are euthanized. To curb pet overpopulation and reduce euthanasia of these animals, the Colorado State Legislature created the Pet Overpopulation Fund. The generosity of the citizens of Colorado has enabled the Pet Overpopulation Fund to grant over $1.5 million to 60 community coalitions of veterinarians and animal care and control agencies. Since 2001, the Fund has subsidized over 38,000 sterilization surgeries in underserved or rural areas of the state where affordable spay and neuters surgeries are not readily available to pet owners.
