My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Eric! He is a 5-year-old domestic shorthair who came to us as a stray in early November. When he arrived, we discovered he needed some dental work after his time living outdoors, but even after his surgery, he has remained a sweet, gentle big guy who loves attention and quiet affection. Eric is FIV+, which means he’ll need a home with a family prepared to keep him safe from potential illnesses, as his immune system is a bit weaker than that of most cats. His adopters should also understand the considerations of bringing him into a home with other cats, but with proper care, FIV+ cats can live long, happy lives. Despite everything he’s been through, Eric’s soft heart shines through. He’s calm, loving, and just looking for a forever family who will appreciate his gentle nature. Come meet him today and see if he’s the perfect match for your home!

More about this shelter

Our Mission is to protect and improve the lives of dogs and cats by providing shelter, care, adoption, rescue, spay/neuter programs, and community education.

Our Vision is to end pet overpopulation and to create a community where every dog and cat is treated with respect and compassion and has a permanent and loving home.

The San Antonio Humane Society (SAHS) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, no-kill organization that has served Bexar County and its surrounding areas since 1952. The SAHS shelters, medically treats, and rehabilitates thousands of dogs and cats every year. Many of the dogs and cats in our care have been abused, injured, surrendered by their owners, or found as strays. As a no-kill organization, every treatable pet in our care stays in our care until they find a home or necessary placement with another no-kill organization. No pet in our care is ever euthanized to create space. Thousands of dogs and cats in San Antonio and its surrounding areas are saved from euthanasia every year due to the mission and practices of the SAHS.

Through our adoption, volunteer, foster, spay/neuter, and educational programs, we inform and educate the public on the importance of responsible pet ownership. We serve as one of the largest dog and cat adoption organizations in San Antonio, Texas, helping to decrease the community’s large pet overpopulation problem in a humane manner. As a local nonprofit, we are not affiliated with the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS). We do not receive funding from the federal government, the HSUS, or the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA).

The most effective way to positively change your local community is by donating to your local nonprofit.
