The Gananoque & District Humane Society is a dedicated, volunteer-run, no-kill shelter committed to rescuing, caring for, and rehoming abandoned and surrendered cats. We believe that every feline deserves a safe, loving place to call home.
Since 1989, we have served the town of Gananoque and the surrounding area with a commitment to animal protection. As a registered not-for-profit charity and a full-service affiliate of the Ontario SPCA since 1992, we operate with transparency and deep respect for the cats who depend on us.
Operating without guaranteed government funding, our shelter relies entirely on the generosity of our community. Behind every success story is a team of dedicated volunteers, foster families, and staff who provide medical care, enrichment, and daily companionship. Our foster program is particularly vital, allowing cats to thrive in comfortable, home-like environments while they prepare for their permanent placements.
We believe adoption is a joyful partnership built on trust and careful matching. Prior to adoption, every cat receives veterinary care, including spay or neuter surgery, microchipping, and essential vaccinations. By working closely with potential adopters, we help ensure each feline finds a home that perfectly suits their personality and needs.
You can be the change a cat needs by welcoming a new companion into your life or supporting our mission through volunteering, fostering, or donating. We invite you to view our adoptable cats and kittens today to start your journey toward a life-changing friendship. Whether you are ready to adopt or simply want to learn more, we look forward to meeting you.
