*Targeted ZIP Codes. Our services are targeted to make the most impact at reducing pet overpopulation. We analyze data every year to determine:

  1. The neighborhoods in Chicago where more stray dogs and cats are on the streets
  2. The neighborhoods where animals who come into Animal Care & Control (the city pound) originate

This data determines our Targeted ZIP Codes—the areas most in need of spay/neuter to control pet overpopulation. Targeted ZIP Codes are currently 60608, 60609, 60612, 60615, 60617, 60619, 60620, 60621, 60623, 60624, 60628, 60629, 60632, 60636, 60637, 60643, 60644, 60649, 60651, 60652, 60653.

**Medical Card Eligibility. We accept Medicaid and CountyCare. To qualify for discounts, the person whose name is on the front of the card (same side as the address) must:

  1. Be present during check-in to qualify for discounts
  2. Bring a current copy of your card and picture ID with matching name and address

***Presurgical Bloodwork is mandatory for all animals 6 years of age or older to assess surgical risk. The client must bring bloodwork report with them to the appointment or may elect to have bloodwork processed at the Lurie Clinic prior to surgery.
