Looking for some assistance with pest control? We've got just the thing!

Our Working Cat Program is designed for cats who aren't interested in the lap-sitting life of your typical feline friend. Instead, they'll keep your pest population under control in exchange for a safe environment and basic care.

These working kitties are hoping for a nice barn, warehouse, or workshop where they can do their own thing while you do yours. If you've got an appropriate space that could use some feline intervention, fill out a Working Cat Adoption form here: https://bit.ly/3LVXFqC

Want to make a shelter dog’s Thanksgiving truly unforgettable?

Our Turkey Tester signups are officially LIVE, and this is your chance to give a dog something priceless: a warm home, a soft couch and a holiday filled with love.

For many of our pups, this might be the first time they’ve ever been part of a family tradition. Your kindness could be the moment they finally exhale.

All Turkey Tester staycations follow the same schedule:
📅 Pickup: Wednesday, Nov. 26
📅 Dropoff: Monday, Dec. 1
(No alternate dates available.)

We have very limited spots, and these fill fast every year — so reserve yours now and change a dog’s holiday (and maybe your own).

Your table. Their second chance.

BLORBO

This 1-year-old boy is incredibly sweet, fun, smart and energetic! He might pull on the leash a little when it’s time to go outside, but that’s just because he can’t wait to play with you!

Tickets to Wine Fest are starting to run low!

NHS Wine Fest is like “Brew at the Zoo,” except “Wine Tasting at the Animal Shelter” doesn’t have quite the same ring to it.

Your ticket allows you to taste exquisite wine, snack on an outrageously large charcuterie board, enjoy live music, bid on several silent auction items and say hello to the cutest guests you’ve ever seen at a wine tasting, like Tin Man here!

Learn more and purchase tickets here: nehumanesociety.org/wine

Foster dog feature! Meet Hank the hound🐶💜

Hank is a sweet and affectionate goofball that loves walks and snuggling up in soft blankets. During his time in foster care, Hank has enjoyed playing with other dogs and meeting kiddos while out for walks in the neighborhood.

Hank can be pretty vocal, especially when he's excited, so apartment living probably wouldn't be the best fit. He'll need to meet any potential siblings, both human and canine, before he goes to his forever home. Since he's in foster care, you'll need to submit an online application so our foster team can set up a time for you to meet him. You can fill out a foster dog application here: https://bit.ly/3q5ERVd
