If your cat isn't using their litterbox, don't assume that they are "getting back" at you for something. There's almost always a good reason!

- Is your cat hurt? Your vet can check for pain or mobility issues that might be causing the litterbox problem. Something as seemingly unrelated as dental pain can cause accidents!

- Do you have enough litterboxes in the home? The rule of thumb is 1 litterbox for every cat.

- Can your cat easily reach the boxes, and are they in "scary", noisy or hard-to-reach areas?

- Covered or electronic litterboxes may make your cat wary

- Try switching the type of litter

- Try a larger box, or one with an easier entry for your cat to step inside.

- Evaluate the stress levels of your home: is your cat getting along with the people and any other pets? Is there a new stressor, like cats outside the windows or a new addition to the household?

🪵😺 Cat trees needed for our Tiny Lions Cat Café!

Our cats love to climb, scratch, and lounge — and our cat trees have been getting lots of love lately! We’re looking to refresh their space with some new or gently used cat trees.

You can help by:
🌿 Donating directly through our Amazon Wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2S3Q1INV90NXB?ref_=wl_share

🏠 Or dropping off donations at the main shelter in our designated donation area.

We’ll gladly accept new or gently used cat trees — just please, no items that are heavily used or missing pieces.

Thank you for helping us keep our Tiny Lions happy, comfy, and climbing high! 💛🐾

Love starts here.

Since 1896, the Humane Society of Huron Valley has existed to support the loving and responsible care of animals in our community. HSHV is still the only shelter in Washtenaw County, serving over 14,000 animals and their people every year.

A no-kill shelter: Thanks to innovative programs and community support (including >1,700 volunteers!), animals at HSHV do not have a time limit to get adopted. HSHV is classified as a no-kill shelter by Maddie’s Fund, a leader in the no-kill movement, and has won several awards for having the highest save rate among all similar shelters in Michigan.

Not just cats and dogs: Though HSHV is primarily known for helping pets, we serve all types of animals and have been aiding area wildlife for over 60 years. Today, HSHV serves farm animals through cruelty investigation services and operates a 24/7 emergency rescue service for sick and injured wildlife (funded through donations) and a humane wildlife removal service (available for a nominal fee).

Let’s talk cats: For most of history, cats have lived outdoors; in fact, kitty litter wasn’t invented until 1947! Today, though most Americans keep cats indoors, some exaggerate outdoor cats’ impacts and demand culling -- which was found to increase birth rates. Ten years ago, HSHV started a Trap-Neuter-and-Return (TNR) program, proven to effectively and humanely reduce the population of outdoor cats. And in 2016, HSHV opened the Tiny Lions lounge and adoption Center-- a cat cafe focused on responsible cat adoption and humane education.
