Donations needed for KHS' Littlest Ones!

Spring is here, and that means hundreds of kittens and dozens of puppies are arriving at KHS. There are currently over 200 animals in KHS foster homes, over 75% of which are kittens. With so many hungry (and adorable) faces to feed, our supplies are running low. Donations of the following items are desperately needed: Kitten Milk Replacement formula (powdered not liquid), canned cat food (pate style, no chunks with gravy), canned dog food (pate style, no chunks with gravy). Items can be left in the donation bin in front of the shelter entrance, or ordered from our Amazon Wishlist and shipped directly to KHS. Thank you!!!

Make a Gift in Honor of Someone Special to You Show Your
Appreciation With a Tribute Gift

Over the years, you build relationships that stand the test of time. There comes a point when you decide to honor a relationship in a way that not only recognizes the person, but also makes a lasting impact on an organization close to your heart.

You can do both.

A tribute gift to KHS is the perfect way to show your appreciation for an individual that is meaningful in your life. This type of gift can also be used to recognize a special achievement (graduation, birthday, wedding, anniversary, etc) or to honor and memorialize a loved one who has passed away. Don't forget about fathers day!

Let Us Help
If you are inspired by someone to give to Kitsap Humane Society, a tribute gift is a perfect fit for you. Contact Tom Weed at tweed@kitsap-humane.org or 360 -692-6977 X1124 today.

Adorable Adoptable
Oso

Hello, my name is Oso (Intake #54220) and I’m a happy, playful Shepherd mix looking for an active family to call my own. I’m a super-fluffy sweetie who has the personality of a puppy! I was primarily an outdoor dog in my previous home, but I would love to be an indoor/outdoor dog and a part of the family. I would prefer a home with no cats and one with older children. I’m an inquisitive, goofy boy who needs an owner with time to help me perfect my manners. I’m a big clown and would be a  perfect match for someone with a great sense of humor. You can meet me and other adoptable animals at Kitsap Humane Society, open six days a week.
