Welcome to the Niagara Falls Humane Society

The Niagara Falls Humane Society helps find loving homes for unwanted and mistreated animals, as well as trying its best to reunite lost pets with their rightful owners.

The NFHS provides a safe haven for pets in limbo, before they are placed in a new home. The Society tries to alleviate the suffering of all animals and to eliminate euthanasia as a method of population control for pets. At the NFHS, no healthy animal will ever be euthanised. An animal will only be put down if a vet recommends euthanasia as the only humane option.

Thank you Hannah House ladies!
The animals thank you for your random act of kindness!

Hannah House is a maternity home for young women. During the first two weeks of February, they are focussed on doing random acts of kindness in the community. They got together early in the morning to bake the treats for the dogs, and then came to the shelter to feed them.

Thank you ladies for thinking of the animals!
Adoption fees changing

Adoption fees changing
Cat adoption fee changes

As of February 15, the cat adoption fee will be raised to $95 plus taxes. As always this fee includes spaying or neutering, microchipping and vaccinations.

We are attempting to keep our adoption fees as reasonable as possible as our expenses for caring for the animals escalate.

Please visit the shelter, the Adoption Centre at Niagara Square, Global Pets, Petcetera, Petsmart or Paulmac's if you are ready to adopt a cat.
THANK YOU

THANK YOU
You touch our hearts

A big thank you for all the big and little people who do kind things to help the animals.

Way to go Trevor for having your friends and family donate supplies for the animals instead of giving birthday gifts!

Thank you!!
