Hop Into Fall Critter Adoption Event
Join us in our Critter House on Saturday, September 23 from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. for a critter adoption event! Adoption fees will be waived for all critters (rabbits, guinea pigs and hamsters). The Pasadena Humane adoptions team will also provide information about housing, diet and care to set you up for success with your new pet. This is a walk-in event, so no appointment is needed.
Seniors for Seniors
Our Seniors for Seniors program enables people age 60 and up to adopt pets age 5 and up free of charge, thanks to the generous support of the Pets for the Elderly Foundation.
Of course, most pets at age 5 (like most humans at age 60!) are hardly over the hill; on the contrary, they’re just hitting their stride, and the Seniors for Seniors program—besides offering financial assistance to our more experienced adopters—gives an extra boost to the terrific middle-aged cats and dogs, who are sometimes overlooked by shelter visitors.
Pets for Vets
We offer fee-waived adoptions and vaccines for all active duty and retired military personnel. Adopters must show military ID at time of adoption to qualify.

Tours
Pasadena Humane is more than a shelter; we are a resource for all animals in the community. Join us for a guided tour to learn more about how we help animals in need. During this hour-long tour, you’ll hear about our history, programs, and services while viewing adorable dogs, cats and critters looking for new homes. The tour will start at the Animal Resource Center. We’ll then travel through the Neely Cat Center and dog kennels learning more about the animals in our care. The tour will end at the Shelter Shop.
Tours are appropriate for all ages and limited to 15 guests.
Tours will be held on the first and third Saturdays of each month. Please sign up here.
