Help Us Provide Care For Homeless Animals

Tails Humane Society cares for over 2,500 displaced pets each year. We accept pets from owners who can no longer keep them and from Good Samaritans who have found a homeless pet. We also work with animal control organizations and other animal shelter to rescue at-risk animals from overcrowded shelters. As a managed admission shelter, we provide quality, individualized care for each animal ensuring they have the best chance at adoption.

In Tribute

Tribute gifts can be thoughtfully given to honor or remember lost pets, in memory of a loved one, or a gift for the person who has everything.
