Commonwealth Humane Society

Saving pets from high kill shelters.

Mission Statement


The mission of The Commonwealth Humane Society is to provide for the welfare, shelter and adoption of homeless cats and kittens, dogs and puppies; to promote the responsible care of companion animals; and to actively promote spaying and neutering as the most humane means of animal control. Over the 10 plus years we have been in operation we have expanded our services from rescuing cats and kittens, to include homeless dogs and puppies.

Commonwealth Humane Society's program expenses are funded by adoption fees, by donations from the general public and modest sums from organizations like Petco, PetSmart and local businesses.
