The Pickens County Humane Society is a dedicated non-profit organization serving as a lifeline for animals in our community. We are committed to protecting and nurturing pets in need, eliminating animal suffering through education, and finding the perfect forever home for every animal that comes through our doors.
As the only no-kill shelter in Pickens County, we have proudly operated for 47 years. We are an independent organization, meaning we rely entirely on the generosity of private donors, fundraisers, and community support to provide essential services to the 700 to 1,000 animals we care for each year.
At the heart of our operations is a steadfast commitment to animal welfare, which includes providing refuge for strays and unwanted pets. We utilize a range of essential programs, including a pet food bank and public education, to ensure every animal receives the care they deserve while awaiting their new family. Our dedicated team and volunteers work tirelessly to maintain a safe, nurturing environment for every dog and cat in our care.
Adoption is a life-changing journey, and we believe in creating successful, long-term matches between our animals and their new families. We encourage you to carefully consider the lifetime commitment of pet ownership, including the time, space, and care required to ensure your new companion thrives. Our team is here to provide guidance, helping you understand the unique needs of your future pet so you can build a strong, loving bond together.
We invite you to experience the rewards of saving a life by viewing our adoptable canines and felines today. Whether you are ready to open your home to a new companion or wish to support us through volunteering or donations, you make the difference. Please contact us to schedule an appointment and begin your journey to finding your new best friend.
