The Windham County Humane Society (WCHS) is a non-profit organization dedicated to
(1) ensuring the safety and well-being of animals and (2) enhancing the relationship between individuals
and pets through adoption, education, advocacy, compassion and promotion of animal welfare.
The shelter has been in operation for over 130 years. (See history
of the shelter.)
WCHS helps lost,
stray, abandoned,
and surrendered pets by giving them a second chance at a healthy, happy life. All animals who come to the shelter receive the best of care,
including full medical examination and vaccinations against disease. Because we are committed to reducing the number of unwanted animals in Windham County, we also
work with local veterinarians to have all new arrivals spayed or neutered. No animal coming through our doors is ever given a time limit. We give each pet the
opportunity to wait for the right family to arrive.
WCHS also works with the local
community to reunite lost animals with their owners.
Our
Lost & Found Center provides a searchable list of all animals reported
to us as lost or found. If you lose your pet or you find a lost animal, please submit a
Lost & Found Report so that we can publicize the report
in our Lost & Found Center.
The Windham County Humane Society relies solely on
caring community members to support its mission.
We receive no funding from national organizations or from state or federal sources.
Consequently, we greatly appreciate donations of any amount to help us continue our important work.
