Dane County Humane Society

We've got cats. We've got dogs. And yes, we even have a pigeon.

What we're saying is: we've got a variety of animals looking for homes and hoping today is the day they meet their new family.

The pets featured here are just a few of the many available for adoption. Our Adoption Center is open today (6/19) from noon until 7:00 PM, so stop in and see who catches your eye!

As some of us get outdoors more in the summer to explore and have fun, you may come across our wildlife friends. Dane County Humane Society's Wildlife Center shared some tips on helping sick, injured, and orphaned wild animals.

They also chatted about their nature camp, Camp WildSide, and what campers are learning about this summer and some of the activities they're doing that are helping current patients.
