Meet Kinder & Cadbury!

These two lovebirds are sweet as candy and ready to find their forever homes. They are bonded and must find a home together. Kinder & Cadbury aren't used to being handled and can be a bit fearful of people, but their foster family is currently working on helping them understand that humans aren't as scary as they might think.

If you would like to give these beautiful birds a loving home, visit our website to apply today!

Bailey found his forever home recently and here's his Happy Tail!

"Just wanted to let you know how great Bailey is doing. He took to his crate right away, going in on his own when he wanted a rest. He has shown his goofy side, chasing a ball and had some zoomies in the backyard. We will need to work on his confidence as he can get a bit nervous around new people, but I’m sure the puppy training and socialization will help with that!"

Wishing everyone a very Hoppy Easter! 🐰

We hope you are all getting to spend time with family, friends, and furry family members too. And don't forget, chocolate easter eggs and treats are tasty for us, but dangerous for our pets. Be sure to keep your Easter candy out of reach of any furry friends 💖

Just a friendly reminder that our centres are closed today and tomorrow. We will be back to regular hours on Tuesday, April 22nd.

About the Stratford Perth Humane Society

The Stratford Perth Humane Society has been helping animals in need for over 40 years.

Formerly called the Perth County SPCA, in 2012 it was renamed the Stratford Perth Humane Society. The same year, it also joined the Kitchener Waterloo Humane Society to become one organization, now known as The Humane Society of Kitchener Waterloo and Stratford Perth.

The Humane Society exists to help animals in need in our communities. We operate two locations - the Kitchener Waterloo Humane Society in Kitchener, and the Stratford Perth Humane Society in Stratford. Together they service the areas of Kitchener, Waterloo, Wilmot, Woolwich, Wellesley, Stratford and Perth County. From time to time we help animals outside of these areas, as time and resources allow.

The Humane Society is self-funded and self- governed. Outside of contracts for animal protection services, we receive no government funding. We rely on the generosity of our donors to help animals within our communities and to provide animal welfare focused community education and outreach.
