About This Cause

Spokane Humane Society (SHS) is a private, non-profit serving the public by providing care, shelter, and placement into loving homes for neglected and unwanted animals in the greater Spokane area. Since 1897, SHS has acted as a refuge for tens of thousands of animals in need. When the Spokane Humane Society was founded by a group of concerned citizens in 1897, we looked after the draft horses used to carry loads up Spokane’s South Hill. Nowadays, SHS takes in more than 2,000 dogs and cats in need each year from owners who can't care for them anymore, and from other rescues and shelters in the area who need assistance. We place between 2000-3000 cats and dogs annually through our adoption program and help thousands more through our veterinary clinic, which offers affordable spay and neuter, vaccinations and emergency veterinary care to low-income pet owners. We have been a no-kill shelter since 2006, and never euthanize animals due to time spent at the shelter or lack of space. Our hundred-plus-year history is all the more impressive, we think, when you consider how we are funded. The Spokane Humane Society is a local, private non-profit and public charity that receives no government funding. We are supported entirely by those of you in the community who care deeply about the welfare of homeless pets. They thank you — and so do we.
