The City Animal Shelter can euthanize stray animals as soon as three days after admittance. Animals brought in by their owners are typically euthanized the very same day they are brought into the shelter. With proper funding, the Humane Society of Tom Green County can and will provide a much-needed alternative to these extreme measures by establishing a no-kill shelter for all adoptable animals.

In addition, the Humane Society relies on donations and contributions from the public for our current operational costs to include, but not limited to: our low-cost spay/neuter program, emergency vet care for needy animals, foster care, rescue operations, lost and found hotline, free flea and tick dips for the public, and educational services.

Won’t you please help us by becoming a member of the Humane Society today? With current economic struggles that our nation and our community are facing, we need your help now more than ever.

You may also choose to donate to the Humane Society by contributing an item on Our Wish List or by becoming a volunteer for the Humane Society and donating your time. If you would like to volunteer, please come to our Volunteer orientation held the first Saturday of every month at our office inside the City Shelter. Refer to our Calendar for dates and times.
