Cats and dogs in Thunder Bay need your help!

The economic situation affecting Thunder Bay & District means that an increasing number of local families are no longer able to care for their pets. As a result, demand for our shelter’s services has become much greater, putting an enormous strain on our already limited resources. In order to continue our life saving animal welfare work in Thunder Bay & District, we require an additional $300,000 per year in public support. With these additional funds, Thunder Bay & District Humane Society will be able to ensure that every animal in need has a chance for a better future.

Half-Way Home Appeal

Thunder Bay & District Humane Society is a not for profit organization that provides essential shelter, food and vet care to cats, dogs and other small animals that are unwanted, or have been abused, neglected or abandoned. We are a low-kill shelter that works to free animals from cruelty and to find safe homes for every adoptable animal in our care.

The Half-Way Home Appeal

We hope that you will help unwanted or abandoned animals in your area by supporting our new Half-Way Home Appeal.

Animals are already half-way home when they arrive at Thunder Bay & District Humane Society. We are a transitional home – a safe place where animals can recover from past neglect or find shelter before moving on to a new home. Re-homing is about giving animals a new start, with a new family who can offer them the love and attention they deserve.

By donating to the Half-Way Home Appeal, we can help every animal to get all the way home. The animals deserve it.

Donate to help today.
