Programs
HSTGC
offers the following programs:
Foster Program
The Humane Society of Tom Green County
is in constant need of quality foster homes for the dogs and cats
we rescue. Approved sponsors give adoptable animals an extended chance
at adoption by caring for them in their own home. The goal of each
adoptable pet is to find a "forever home."
Mobile Adoptions
The second and fourth Saturday of every
month foster cats and dogs are available for adoption
at PetCo. All
HSTGC adoptable pets are spayed/neutered, current on vaccinations
and city tag, and are microchipped. Cats are $55,
and dogs are $70.
Educational Program
The Humane Society strives to make our community a better place for
people and animals. We work with elementary school children and teach
them responsible
pet ownership, humane treatment of animals, dog bite prevention, and
the importance of spaying and neutering pets. We also have essay and
drawing contests at the end of the school year. (Jackie Timmerman,
Chair)
Feral Cat Program
Entire feral colonies are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated,
and neutered by veterinarians. Volunteers then return the cats to
their home. Caretakers make sure that their respective colony has
food, water, and shelter. (Wanda Childs, Chair)
