Thanks to the incredible generosity of the Jason Heigl Foundation, over three sponsored days we were able to spay/neuter 45 dogs and 45 cats — with vaccines and microchips also provided at no cost to their families.
We are so grateful to the Jason Heigl Foundation and the Namaste Spay & Neuter Initiative for supporting this important work and helping us make a difference for pets and families in our community. ❤️🐾

Another great week at Sumner Spay Neuter Alliance!

This week, our team spayed and neutered a total of 179 dogs and cats!

We wrapped up the week with a busy Cat Day on Friday, and want to give a heartfelt THANK YOU to BISSELL Pet Foundation and the Fix the Future® program for their continued support of our spay/neuter efforts.

Together, we’re making our community a better place for animals and the people who love them. 🐾💙

What a wonderful night!
A huge thank you to Michael and Kim Ponce for putting together this fundraiser to benefit Sumner Spay Neuter Alliance. We are incredibly grateful for your generosity, your friendship, and the time and effort you put into making tonight such a success.
Thank you as well to all of the musicians who shared their talents, and to everyone who came out, donated, listened to some great music, and supported our mission.
It means so much to have people in our community who believe in the work we do and are willing to come together to help us continue providing affordable spay/neuter services to the animals and families who need them.

Michael, Kim, and everyone involved — thank you for a fantastic night and for supporting SSNA! 🐾❤️

We are in need of used or new white towels of any size. They don’t have to be perfect; they just need to be clean.

Your donated towels help us line our recovery areas and provide comfort to the thousands of dogs and cats we care for each year.

📍 Donations may be dropped off at:
Sumner Spay Neuter Alliance
720 Blythe Avenue
Gallatin, TN 37066

As a nonprofit, donations like these help us direct more of our resources toward providing affordable spay and neuter services for our community.

Also needed: paper towels, bleach, laundry detergent, tall kitchen trash bags, alcohol and peroxide.

Thank you!

Today we’d like to say a special THANK YOU to our veterinary assistant Dylan for 2 years of hard work, compassion, and dedication to the Sumner Spay Neuter Alliance! 🐾

Many of you may recognize Dylan from checking patients in for surgery, but behind the scenes he spends long days in our surgical prep area helping ensure our patients are well cared for, safe, and doing their best before, during, and after surgery.

Dylan’s kindness toward animals and friendly support of our clients make a difference every single day. We are grateful for all he does and thankful to have him as part of our team.

Thank you, Dylan!

To the quiet heroes caring for community cats—feeding, providing shelter, trapping and transporting to veterinary clinics for spay/neuter and vaccinations—thank you. We know it’s not easy, and it often goes unseen, but your kindness is changing lives every day. ♥️

A blast from the past - August 2012! Thanks to a dedicated group of women, SSNA has been serving our community for 17 years!
