Our Mission

Our mission is to provide a temporary, safe, no-kill shelter for homeless and lost cats and dogs, ultimately placing them in loving homes or with caring rescues. We aim to increase community awareness of humane treatment of animals through education, spay and neuter programs, rabies clinics, and respect for life.

As a nonprofit animal shelter, the Butler County Humane Society has served the Butler County community for over 120 years and became a no-kill shelter in 2000. Contrary to popular belief, our shelter is not funded by taxpayer dollars; instead, we rely on community support for most of our funding.

Who We Are

The Butler County Humane Society is a non-profit organization in association with the Helen Spaide Albig Adoption Center. We provide a temporary, safe, no-kill shelter for homeless, adoptable dogs and cats, ultimately placing them in loving homes or with caring rescues while increasing community awareness of the humane treatment of animals through education, spay-neuter programs, rabies clinics, and respect for life.

Purpose

The purpose of the Butler County Humane Society is:

  • To provide aid, protection, and care for unwanted, abandoned, abused, and lost dogs and cats.

  • To secure suitable homes for adoptable dogs and cats

  • To restore lost animals to their owners; to encourage the limitation of dog and cat populations by spaying and neutering;

  • To operate an adoption service for dogs and cats

  • To educate the public on the care and responsible treatment of dogs and cats

  • To create a quality environment for dogs and cats through the Butler County Humane Society’s presence in the community.

We will achieve our purpose through programs and services grounded in sound, humane principles and respect for animals. The Butler County Humane Society will operate as a no-kill facility.
