Humane Society Of Yates County

OUR MISSION: The Humane Society of Yates County exists to promote the welfare of companion and domestic animals through educational programs and initiatives that reduce pet overpopulation, enrich adoptions and encourage responsible pet ownership. WHO WE ARE: We are the small shelter that keeps on going and growing year after year! We have been established in Yates County, New York since 1908 and have functioned as a brick-and-mortar shelter since 2000. On average about 300 dogs and cats make their way to us each year. We provide them with medical care, spaying and neutering, and whatever they need to make the transition into a forever home. Over the last year, we completed an addition of a new dog adoption center with help from a grant from NY state. We are now able to house our homeless dog population in a space that is comfortable rather than stressful. In addition to being an animal shelter and adoption center, we hold trap, neuter, and return clinics and offer low-cost spay/neuter services for income-eligible residents who live in Yates County. Not only are we a refuge for the homeless animals in our care, but we also welcome college kids who may need some pet therapy, youth programs such as the Scouts and Career classes from local high schools, and participants of our local Mosaic program. Volunteers keep us going and we are so thankful to those who help out! Consider helping The Shelter of Hope~ The Humane Society of Yates County ROC the DAY!
