Meet Your New Best Friend!
Every animal available for adoption at The Humane Society of Delaware County is special and deserves love, but these pets need special people, and we hope it’s you!
Helping People Help Pets!
It’s pets and their humans that make difference! Our stats demonstrate how our community supports our mission. When you consider that the HSDC is not supported at the county, state or federal government level, it takes a lot of love and dedication from donors to support daily operations. As a 501(c)(3), your donations are tax deductible.
- 11,100+ lives saved since 2019
- 1,906 adoptions in 2024
- 2,180 foster placements in 2024

🐾 Meet Paw Paw! 🐱
Paw Paw is the hungriest cat at the shelter — and he wants to make sure you know it! The second he sees someone enter our cat room, he comes running and meowing, just in case they brought treats.
When he’s not thinking about his next snack, Paw Paw enjoys toys, chasing treats across the room, and getting plenty of pets. He gets along with his kitty roommates, as long as they respect his personal space.
If you’re looking for a talkative tabby with a big personality (and an even bigger appetite!), come meet Paw Paw! ❤️ ...

☕️🐾 You helped us raise $924 for the animals! ❤️
A huge THANK YOU to everyone who showed up for our 7 Brew Coffee fundraiser! Because of your support, 600 large drinks were sold, with $0.77 from each drink donated to HSDC — raising $462 for the animals in our care.
And then, one incredibly generous donor matched the entire donation, bringing our grand total to $924! 🎉
We are so grateful to 7 Brew for giving us the opportunity to raise funds for the animals, and to our amazing community for showing up, grabbing a drink, and making a difference.
Thank you for helping us turn coffee runs into something that truly helps animals in need! 🐾❤️ ...
