Help the Animals

Adopting a Pet

The goal of the NHS adoption program is to match the right home with the right animal to begin building a forever family. Making room in your life and a place in your heart for an animal will create a connection that will change both of you forever. We’re here from day one to be part of your amazing journey together.
Check out our animals currently waiting for their “forever home”.

Making a Donation

The NHS operates without government funding, relying solely on the support and kindness of the communities it serves. To sustain our operations, we must consistently raise the funds needed. Each year, hundreds of animals are nurtured and provided with veterinary care until they find their forever homes. All donations are allocated directly to animal welfare, covering costs for medical care, vaccinations, spay/neuter procedures, food, and supplies for daily shelter operations.

Our Vision

A community, in which all animals are safe, supported and valued.

Our Mission

The Northumberland Humane Society is a charitable community partner dedicated to improving the lives of animals.

Our Values

Accessibility, Compassion, Connection, Integrity, Professionalism


Saving one animal will not change the world,

but surely for that one animal, the world will change forever.

Legacy Gift

Looking for a way to make a difference for animals in need without affecting your current income? Please consider a legacy gift as your living monument to improve the lives of animals long into the future.

Foster A Pet

NHS is always looking for temporary foster homes for our animals as they await adoption to their permanent homes. We provide all supplies to foster homes, including food, dishes, litter/litter box, blankets and a crate. We also provide medications and prescription diet as required. As a foster volunteer, you provide a safe and caring home for your new house guest.
