Pet Adoption Information
The Helotes Humane Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to placing unwanted animals in loving homes. All of our animals receive age-appropriate vaccinations, testing, a microchip and spay/neuter surgery if needed. Pets are not allowed to go to their forever home until they are spayed/neutered. Most of our animals are ready to go to their forever home within two days of surgery. Remember, don’t shop, adopt!
