Who Are We?

The Humane Society of Louisiana is a non-profit animal protection agency based in New Orleans. Our statewide mission is to prevent cruelty to animals and to rescue animals from abuse and neglect. The Humane Society networks with independent SPCAs, humane agencies, law enforcement officials, and private citizens to eliminate animal abuse. The Humane Society operates a private, no-kill "safe house" sanctuary, where animals rescued from abuse & neglect are rehabilitated and adopted.


Two years Later: They Still Need Homes!

After Hurricane Katrina damaged H.S.L.A.'s shelter in New Orleans, a temporary site was set up for the animals in Tylertown, a small Mississippi town located outside of Louisiana. That temporary site also served as a staging area for the homeless and displaced animals rescued from the streets and devastated homes of New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina, and then Hurricane Rita. One year later after the devastating Hurricanes destroyed New Orleans and Mississippi's Gulf Coast, the dogs and cats rescued from the storm-ravaged area are still homeless. We need your help to give these dogs a permanent place of their own. Can you offer a home to one these Katrina animals? If not, do you know anyone who can open up their home to a Katrina animal? If not, can you help spread the word that we still have animals that are in need of new homes to replace the homes taken from them by Katrina and Rita?


Come meet our pets at the PetSmart at 1000 South Clearview Parkway!

Adoption counselors are there Monday thru Friday from 6-8pm with our cats who live at PetSmart and our dogs are there every Saturday from Nonn til 3 pm

How Can You Adopt A Friend From Us?

The Humane Society's policy is to spay/neuter each animal before releasing him or her to an adoptive home. Potential adopters should be aware that there would be a pre-adoption interview with one of our adoption coordinators. This helps us determine if the adopter and the animal will be a good match. Potential adopters are advised to have a veterinarian selected. We may have a 24-hour waiting period for all animals, to allow adopters time to prepare for their new friends. All cats and dogs are altered before going to their new home. Adoption fees of $85 cover our expenses to spay/neuter, microchip and vaccinate the animal.

Please send us an email if you are interested in giving one of our animals a home.


If You Gave A Dog A Bed......

Our dogs love relaxing on patented Kuranda beds. While the dogs like Kuranda beds for their comfort, we like to use them because they are durable, chew proof, and easy to clean, and, of course, because our dogs love them! Please visit Kuranda's website if you would like to donate a bed to our dogs.

Please Do Not Forget The Animals In New Orleans!

They are still out there......lonely, hungry, thirsty, and without the homes and families they once had before the storm. Hurricane Katrina may be off the news headlines, but the animals that suffered the biggest blow by the Hurricane still need help. Here is where you can find out more information on the homeless animals in post-Katrina New Orleans and how to help.
