Hawaiian Humane Society

From its busy shelter in the heart of Honolulu, the Hawaiian Humane Society is a focal point of Oahu's animal community and plays an ever-evolving role as mediator on the changing relationship between people and animals.

Since 1897, the Humane Society has reached out to those who enjoy and employ animals, as well as those people who love and share their lives with them. As an animal welfare organization, the Society is also very much a people business; supporting and promoting the human-animal bond, educating young and old, finding solutions to the challenges of a diverse and fast-growing community.

Today, the Hawaiian Humane Society serves as a shelter for homeless animals, a rescue operation, a placement agency, an educational and advocacy organization and a pet care resource center.
