About Our Shelter:

The Licking County Humane Society is a 501(c)(3) non-profit volunteer organization devoted to the humane treatment of animals. LCHS seeks to further the mission by sheltering and adopting, advocating and promoting quality care, educating the public, and reducing overpopulation by spaying and neutering. LCHS is a NO-KILL shelter which provides a safe haven for dogs and cats while they transition from their past lives to their future, "forever" homes. LCHS relies solely on donations and largely on volunteers to do vital work in the community.

Our Adoption Process:

Kittens under six months: $90 plus $100 deposit*
Dogs over six months: $135—$160
Cats over six months: $120—$140

*Puppies and Kittens require a spay/neuter deposit. New owners must furnish proof of completed vac-cines and spay/neuter within the specified time and the deposit will be refunded. Failure to complete the vetting requirements for juveniles will result in loss of deposit and LCHS will reclaim the animal.

The adoption fee includes all vaccinations and spay/neuter. In addition, all pets are now microchipped and come with ShelterCare Pet Insurance, a gift from the humane society.

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.
