Health & Wellness
To help ensure there are enough homes for every pet, the Brevard Humane Society has played an active role in reducing the number of homeless animals in the community. Since 2009, their Low Cost Spay/Neuter & Wellness Clinic has helped thousands of pet owners obtain low cost, high quality spay and neuter services and preventative care for their cats and dogs.
With the belief that cost should never be a barrier, the clinic also offers one of the area’s most efficient clinical programs, in addition to providing affordable wellness checks, vaccinations, microchips, preventative medications, and nail trims. The clinic is staffed by licensed professional veterinarians, veterinary technicians and veterinary assistants and all area residents are welcome to access their services.

Post Adoption Care
Congratulations and thank you for adopting your new pet! The Brevard Humane Society is committed to supporting our adopters post-adoption, and to nurturing lifelong, loving relationships between animals and people. If you adopted an animal from us within the past fourteen (14) days and have any health related concerns regarding your pet, please contact the Brevard Humane Society immediately at 321.636.3343.
While our staff makes every effort to assess and report the health of your new pet, the Brevard Humane Society is not a full-service veterinary hospital or clinic. In the uncommon event that your pet is found to have a severe chronic illness, a serious orthopedic problem, a congenital birth defect or a life-threatening, potentially incurable disease, such as canine distemper or feline leukemia virus infection, please contact us so we can discuss your options, including an exchange for a different pet. In the unfortunate event, your new pet is found to have a medical condition that you are unable to care for, you may also relinquish the pet to us.
Please note that should you agree to diagnostics or treatment recommended by your veterinarian, or you obtain medications from your veterinarian, the Brevard Humane Society is not able to reimburse you or your veterinarian for any medical expenses you may incur.
Why Spay or Neuter?
Spaying or neutering is one of the greatest gifts you can provide your pet, family, and community. This medical procedure not only helps control pet overpopulation, but can also prevent medical and behavioral problems from developing and allowing your pet to live a happier, healthier, and longer life.
Here are some of the medical benefits:
- Your female pet will live a longer, healthier life. Spaying helps prevent uterine infections and breast tumors, which are malignant or cancerous in about 50% of dogs and 90% of cats. Spaying your pet before her first heat offers the best protection from these diseases.
- Neutering your male companion prevents testicular cancer and some prostate problems.
And behavioral benefits:
- Your spayed female pet won’t go into heat. While cycles can vary, female felines usually go into heat four to five days every three weeks during breeding season. In an effort to advertise for mates, they’ll yowl and urinate more frequently—sometimes all over the house!
- Your male dog will be less likely to roam away from home. An intact male will do just about anything to find a mate, including finding creative ways to escape from the house. Once he’s free to roam, he risks potential injury from traffic and fights with other male animals.
- Your neutered male may be better behaved. Unaltered dogs and cats are more likely to mark their territory by spraying strong-smelling urine all over the house. Your dog might be less likely to mount other dogs, people and inanimate objects as well after he’s been neutered . Some aggression problems can also be avoided by neutering early .
Overall, spaying/neutering your pets is also highly cost-effective. The cost of your pet’s spay/neuter surgery is far less than the cost of having and caring for a litter.
