The Lassen Humane Society is a non-profit, animal welfare organization made up entirely of volunteers. Our primary goal is to reduce animal euthanasia by promoting spay/neuter and animal adoptions. All donations and funding go toward helping animals in Lassen County. We have no animal shelter and no police powers to rescue or confiscate animals. We also have no emergency or veterinary services. Any animal control issues should be referred to local law enforcement agencies and any medical emergencies should be referred to local veterinarians.

We make them. Does your pet need one?
This is a great way to help your pet if it becomes lost!
The tags are $6.00 each, stainless steel for durability, and come in a variety of shapes:
bone, heart, circle, fire hydrant, or red, blue, or black collars with engraved buckles. Send your check for $6.00 to our P.O. Box 1575, Susanville, Ca 96130 and enclose a note with you pet's name and full 10-digit phone number.

Foster Care Program
Would you like to become a foster parent for our animals waiting to be adopted? Foster care providers take care of animals waiting to be adopted in their own homes and provide daily care, socialization, and basic training. The Lassen Humane Society provides food, spay or neutering, some vaccinations and medical care as funding permits. The animals remain in Lassen Humane Society custody while we work to find permanent homes through our web page, internet advertising on Petfinder.com, local newspaper advertising and promotion at local events. If you are interested in becoming a foster care provider, please call 257-4555 and request an application.
