About Our Rescue Group:

The Alachua County Humane Society is a private non-profit organization (we receive no government funds). Our primary focus is to end the unnecessary euthanasia of companion animals in Alachua County Florida. We are achieving this through adoptions, sterilizations, and education.

We have adoptable cats, kittens, dogs and puppies that are showcased at our Pet Center located at 4205 NW 6th Street, Gainesville FL. and online at www.alachuahumane.org.

Come Meet our Pets:

From 13th Street and University go North on 13th Street until NW 39th Ave. Turn right (East) on NW 39th Ave and go straight until 6th Street. Turn left (North) on 6th Street and we are about 1/8 of a mile on the right.

Our Adoption Process:

We request that everyone in the family come and meet the pet they are interested in and fill out an application at our facility. Our adoption fees range from $25 to $250 and all of our adoptable animals are current on vaccinations and on flea, tick and heart worm preventative.

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder? When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
