How You Can Help
There are many ways to help Putnam Humane Society.
DONATE
The dogs and cats at the Putnam Humane Society rely on your generosity for food, shelter and veterinary care. These animals often come to us starving and ill, neglected or abused. You make it possible for us to help them heal and find a new beginning in a loving home.
VOLUNTEER!
We rely on help from many people to take care of our friends here at PCHS. Below you will find some of the things they are doing to help. Make some time and volunteer at the shelter. We need your help!

From helping dogs or cats that have been abandoned due to health issues (Times of Trouble), to helping dogs be the best they can be (PHS Training Program), donating in the memory of your own beloved person or pet, sponsoring a treat night for our dogs, or even donating to the PHS as your wedding favor in honor of your guests…

In case you don’t know… Putnam Humane Society’s Mission Statement
-
We are here for the animals…
-
To be the voice for the animals who cannot speak for themselves.
-
To provide protection, a safe haven and compassion through leadership for the homeless, abused, and neglected animals of our community.
-
To be the advocates for our unwanted/abandoned pets and promote humane awareness for all animals.
-
PHS is dedicated to nurturing and protecting the animals in our care while they await adoption. We are committed to providing these animals with the patience, confidence, discipline, nutrition, medical treatment, and socialization they may require until they can be adopted into responsible homes.
-
PHS is a NO KILL SHELTER – meaning, we do not euthanize for space limitations. We provide euthanasia for terminally ill and seriously injured animals to end their suffering when reasonable courses of treatment have been exhausted. We consider humane euthanasia in the animal’s best interest – if an animal is behaviorally or mentally tormented to the degree that they will not allow any human contact or interaction and only after every effort has been exhausted to modify the behavior issues of the animal.
