Where does the Capital Humane Society get their animals?
The Capital Humane Society accepts animals from people who, for various reasons, can no longer assume responsibility for the animals. We often receive entire litters of unwanted puppies and kittens. Our kennels often contain a number of purebred animals available for adoption. Also, lost and stray animals that are brought to CHS through the city’s Animal Control program can be made available for the adoption program if their owners/guardians do not come forward and claim their animals within the time frame for reclaiming. CHS also accepts lost and homeless animals from within the county and surrounding area.
