All too often, when the interests of man and animal are in conflict, man prevails. Animal welfare is a social matter, of which, people need learn to be passionate. The Eau Claire County Humane Association is dedicated to educating the public about the need for humane treatment of all animals and responsible pet ownership. We must rely on donations from our friends and supporters who share our belief that every animal deserves the opportunity to be adopted into a loving home. Because it is difficult to run a shelter based solely on donations, our success depends on you. You CAN make a difference. Your generous support of the Humane Association will help us to feed and care for our local pets until they are adopted into a loving home.

We got a very sweet update from one of our guinea pig adopters about Jeffery!

"Adjust he has, this little guy has some BIG attitude now! He has figured out that he loves carrots and demands them almost 24/7. If we dont deliver the goods in time, he will loudly alert us until we cave! Hes certainly figured out how to "wheet wheet" at us now and uses it with zero hesitation."

"Hes also became quite the cuddle buddy with our cat Izzy, who we do cuddle puddles with the two of them under very close supervision. His whiskers are growing back nicely (hard to see in pictures) but they are so adorable and curly its hard to be mad at him when he gets a little sassy."

"Hes a very far cry from the quiet, not in the greatest health guinea pig we took home that day and I'm so happy to be able to share with you guys! I know you were rooting for him too!"

We just love our sweet, gentle Mr. G!

Mr. G is getting pretty sad being at the shelter for so long, and recently went on a Daycation where he got to hang out with some great people! He is a bit shy at first, but will open up with lots of kisses and cuddles in no time. Here is what his daycationer had to say:

Loves to give kisses
Loves to sit on your lap
Loves to chase his tail over playing with toys
He does settle after a few good walks
Does not go potty in the house and lets you know when he needs to go out
Walks well on a leash for the most part
Does good in the car with his doggy seatbelt

Mr. G qualifies for foster to adopt, meaning you can take him home for 2 weeks before making your final decision! This is great to know how he will do with kids, cats, or dogs. Learn more about Mr. G on our website!

Starting November 1st, ECCHA is making a change to our owner claim policies. Our known-owner stray hold is moving from 7 days to 4 days, in line with state statute.

There are a few reasons behind this decision. The biggest is that a shorter hold lets us provide needed medical attention and vaccinations sooner than we could before. Getting animals the care they need quickly is better for their health and well-being.

We also know that most animals with a known owner are picked up the same day they come in, or well before the 4-day hold is up. For the vast majority of families, this change won’t affect how quickly they are reunited with their pets.

Its Foster Friday! Please say hello to our handsome man, Chester!

Chester has such a fun personality! He is purr-fectly happy snuggling up for cuddles and pets, and equally enjoys his toys and playtime. Chester's foster mom says he is a kitten at heart, and will swat and chase his toys when he is ready to play. Chester is a huge foodie and LOVES his canned seafood flavors, especially if they have big chunks of meat in them like trout and salmon!

Chester can be a bit rough and rowdy when he plays, often play-swatting or nipping. Because of this, we recommend Chester in a home without children. Chester would thrive in a quieter home as the only pet - but dont worry, he is so full of fun all you'll need is one! A generous person has sponsored his adotion fee, which means you can take him home for nothing just in time for the holidays.
