East Los Angeles

California

At Pasadena Humane, we are on a journey to create a more compassionate world for animals and the people who love them. It’s a mission that has been ingrained in us since our inception in 1903. For over a century, we have been dedicated to helping animals in need find loving forever homes in the East Los Angeles, CA area. Our unwavering commitment to this cause has led to countless success stories, with hundreds of abandoned and neglected animals finding a second chance at happiness with their new families in East Los Angeles, CA. In fact, in 2023, we successfully placed 100 percent of all healthy and safe animals we received. We’re proud of our record, and we strive to replicate it every year. If you want to help us achieve this goal and give a safe and happy home to an animal in need, we encourage you to make a donation, donate your time through one of our programs for East Los Angeles, CA residents, or learn more about our adoption process today.

Change Lives Through East Los Angeles, CA, Animal Foster Care

As much as we strive to provide a safe and loving environment within our shelter walls, we understand that some animals may require more specialized attention. That’s why we created our robust and flexible foster program. Our foster program is an essential component of our mission to save and improve the lives of animals. By opening up your heart and home to a foster pet, you are providing them with the individualized care, love, and attention they need to thrive. Whether it’s a nursing mother and her puppies, a litter of bottle-fed kittens, an animal recovering from an injury, or one that just needs some extra TLC to become socialized, there is always a diverse range of animals in our foster program who could use your help. If you want to make a difference in an animal’s life and well-being, register as a Pasadena Humane foster volunteer today. We make it easy for anyone to get involved and make a difference, whether you can spare a few hours or a few months for our animals.
