Please fill out this form to be added to Lawrence Humane Society’s low-cost vaccine clinic waitlist. Lawrence Humane Society hosts low-cost vaccination clinics at the end of every month, except for the month of December. There is a high demand for low-cost vaccine clinic appointments, and as a result many folks are on the waitlist for 1-2 months before they are able to sign up for a clinic. If you are being given a strict deadline to vaccinate your pet(s), please reach out to our Crisis Pet Retention team at cpr@lawrencehumane.org or (785) 592-0531 (call/text). Thank you!
