How long do animals stay up for adoption at the Whatcom Humane Society?
WHS has no set time that an animal stays at the shelter. Each animal is treated as an individual and evaluated on an individual basis. We will hold an animal as long as necessary providing there is space available and the animal is physically and psychologically healthy. At certain times of the year, we receive more animals than other times and space is a greater determining factor. WHS has a large network of foster homes that animals are placed into for various reasons including age, health and space available at the shelter.
