https://linktr.ee/lynchburghumane Vision: A community free of homeless and neglected pets
(1015)

For over seventy years, the Lynchburg Humane Society has operated as a private, non-profit organization, caring for lost and homeless pets. Last year, our Lynchburg Center for Pets cared for 3,811 pets and 93% of the pets went to new or existing homes. We are a 501c3, as well as a No Kill Humane Society, where we firmly believe that no healthy or treatable pet should be euthanized. By operating th

e public shelter for the City of Lynchburg, we accept the lost or unwanted pets surrendered to us from those communities. We help pets at risk for euthanasia at other shelters by transferring them into our care. Last year, 885 pets were brought to safety at LHS from other shelters. We accept those that are easily adoptable as pets, as well as those that need special nurturing from abusive or neglectful experiences. Along with our Center for Pets, we also have a regional spay/neuter clinic which performs over 6,000 spay/neuter surgeries annually It is the help of the community that makes our life-saving programs possible. Mission: Help pets in need through sheltering, adoption, education, spay/neuter, and community outreach.

One of the hardest holidays to shop for is coming up in less than a month! But, we have the perfect gift. That's right, a solution for the perfect Father's Day Present.

Name a kitten after that special person for Father's Day! Whether it is your dad, grandparent, guardian, or super mom, they'll love getting to see the sweet kitten that is now their namesake. For a $20 donation, when you gift this to your loved one and enter in their information, we will send them a letter that includes a photo of the kitten that is named after them. Visit the link below to get started!

WE CAN'T TAKE IT!! 😭🥹💞

Ziggy may be 80 lbs but if you think he is too big for your house you’d be very wrong. Ziggy has been going on weekly slumber parties with his new foster friends for over a month now and they have nothing but high praise for our boy.

We always knew how perfect Ziggy was but seeing things like this really sends our emotions over the edge. Trust us, and trust his foster, you need Ziggy in your life (and your lap) ASAP. Email [email protected] to meet him.

Help us get this long stay senior out of here for good!!
