It's been rather blustery 'round these parts. Heavy rains and wind can disorient pets and make it hard for them to find their way back home. Now is a great time to microchip your pet or update your microchip info. Ensure tags are in place on collars with up-to-date info, and ensure your pets are secure in a safe and warm space with ample food and fresh water. Don't forget Fido and Fifi when emergency planning with your family! Stay safe!

🎃 Halloween Safety Tips for You and Your Pets! 👻

🥸Stay Visible: Wear bright colors or reflective gear to keep safe after dark.

💀Costume Comfort: Make sure costumes are breathable, non-restrictive, and have good visibility.

👽Pet Safety First: Keep pets indoors to avoid spooky surprises; Halloween can be stressful for them.

🤡Watch for Traffic: Trick-or-treaters, stay alert around roads and cross carefully!

🍬Mind the Treats: Keep candy out of reach of pets (especially chocolate!) and check your kids' treats for safety. If you suspect your pet has ingested something toxic, act fast! Call your veterinarian right away or contact the ASPCA Poison Control Center at 888-426-4435 IMMEDIATELY.

Wishing everyone a fun, safe, and spooktacular Halloween! 🎃🧡

This , meet Miss Rosa! 🌹 This sweet senior came to us as a stray and is 10 years old. With her laid-back vibe and loving personality, she’d be the perfect lap cat for a senior looking for a low-energy companion.

She’s all about cuddles and affection! 🐾 If you or someone you know could give her the cozy forever home she deserves, come visit us today. Please share to help Miss Rosa find her happy ending! ❤️

It all started with a horse in need

Back in 1973, there was a horse in need of care as it was getting neglected by its keeper. A concerned citizen from the Valley called the police, but to her dismay they could not do anything. She enjoyed taking photographs and loved animals. So she thought about taking photos of this particular horse in Skagit Valley that was in much need to show its decline. Then when she had enough photos, her next step was to take them to the local paper. Sure enough, this brought out a public cry for animal welfare in Skagit Valley. Soon, in August of 1974, the Humane Society of Skagit Valley was registered as a 501c3 non-profit animal welfare organization. Now, years later, we are still going strong with reuniting animals to owners, adopting pets to loving and responsible families, spaying and neutering companion animals and now rescuing animals from high kill animal shelters across the nation. As well as collaborating with great animal welfare organizations like the nationally recognized ASPCA, The Humane Society of the United States, and partnering with local and statewide Animal Welfare groups in providing solutions. Our mission: To provide a safe haven to shelter and care for the abandoned, abused, or unwanted animals within Skagit County; to treat the animals with dignity and respect; to place these animals into loving and caring homes; to create public education programs that increase the awareness of humane treatment and the necessity of spay and neuter of all animals; and to coordinate resources for housing and placement of small animals evacuated during disaster. We invite you to come out to our facility and meet the wonderful pets and adopt, don’t shop. We have a wonderful Cat-wing for our Felines to enjoy and several play court yards for you to meet with our Canine friends.
