Colonial Capital Humane Society

Our Mission

Colonial Capital Humane Society is dedicated to rescuing and relieving the suffering of abused, abandoned, and stray animals. We strive to provide compassionate care until every animal finds a loving forever home while promoting the importance of spaying, neutering, and humane treatment.

Our Story

Established in 1978, CCHS has proudly served as the only no-kill shelter in Craven County for over four decades. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, we are driven entirely by the commitment of our volunteers and the generous support of our donors to create a better future for animals in need.

How We Care

We are committed to providing a safe, nurturing environment for the animals in our care. Our dedicated team works with dogs of all breeds and ages, placing them in loving foster homes where they receive comprehensive medical and behavioral attention. This ensures that every animal is happy, healthy, and fully prepared for their transition into a permanent family.

Your Role in Our Family

Adoption is the beginning of a beautiful, lifelong partnership, and we are here to help you find the perfect companion. By choosing to adopt, you are providing a second chance to a deserving animal while supporting our mission to save lives. We believe that every pet in our care has a unique personality just waiting to blossom in the right home.
