We’d love for you to meet Sourdough, our very special boy who’s ready for his furever home.
Sourdough is a handsome mostly black kitty with a touch of white—and just like his name, there’s nothing sour about him. He’s a thoughtful, gentle soul who likes to take his time observing the world around him. Once he feels comfortable, his sweet and cheerful personality shines through. Having other cats nearby helps boost his confidence, and you’ll often find him happily perched on his cat tower, keeping a quiet watch and soaking it all in.
Sourdough has been patiently waiting at the shelter since July of 2024, making him one of our longest-staying residents. Despite the wait, he hasn’t lost hope—and neither have we. To help him on his journey home, his adoption is fully sponsored both on-island and off-island, making it even easier to say “yes” to this wonderful boy.
With a little patience, gentle pets, and lots of TLC, Sourdough will reward you with calm companionship and a loving presence that truly makes a house feel like home. Are you ready to welcome this sweet guy into your Ohana and give him the happy ending he’s been waiting for?
Walk-ins are welcome 12 pm – 4 pm, except Thursdays, or schedule a meet-and-greet. Let’s help Sourdough finally find the loving home he deserves.

More about this shelter
The Kauai Humane Society was established by the community in 1952 as a local non-profit 501(c)(3) organization to protect Kauai’s animals. We opened our current home just west of Lihue in 2001 thanks to the generous support of many individuals, families, businesses and foundations. We are an independent animal welfare organization and not a chapter of any mainland or Hawaii group.
The Kauai Humane Society(KHS) is the only physical animal shelter in Kauai County, Hawaii. We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization with a government contract to allow KHS to provide services to Kauai County for humane field services for cats and dogs.
Our facility does not turn away any sick or injured cat or dog found on Kauai. We strive to not euthanize any healthy, adoptable, and/or treatable animals for space or treatable medical reasons.
In 2022, for the year overall, KHS achieved a Live Release Rate of 94.4%; meaning 94.4% of the animals that came into KHS during 2022 were released with a positive outcome of being adopted, returned to the owner, or transferred to a rescue group.
