For over a century, Butte Humane Society (BHS) has opened its arms to the lost, the scared, and the forgotten animals of Butte County and beyond. We’re a limited-admission shelter, a safe haven where scared eyes find comfort and wagging tails rediscover joy. Since 1911, we haven’t just cared for animals, we’ve given them a second chance at love. Will you walk beside us? Together, we will create a future where every animal finds a loving home, where empty bowls are a thing of the past, where veterinary care is accessible, and where responsible pet ownership is the norm.
Our Mission: Saving Lives. Finding Homes. Inspiring Compassion.
Our Vision: Butte Humane Society is committed to nurturing and promoting the human-animal bond. It is our vision to:
- Provide for the well-being of companion animals.
- Reduce the number of unwanted animals through aggressive spay/neuter programs.
- Promote the human-animal bond through adoption, education and outreach programs.
- Act as an advocate on behalf of animals in need.
We are deeply committed to these goals while ensuring the financial security and stability of the organization for future generations.
To further our commitment to ending the cycle of pet overpopulation, BHS has opened a spay and neuter clinic that provides affordable options for our local communities. For contact and price information click here.
