Altadena

California

In 2022, Pasadena Humane 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 by matching all of our animals with loving and long-term homes. Not only do we provide adoption services, but we also provide owner assistance, animal care & control, pet training, licensing, wildlife programs and more. We strive to improve the quality of life of all animals throughout Altadena, CA, whether or not they have a place to call home. Join us in our mission by making a donation or donating your time through one of our programs.

Adoptions

Dogs

Whether you’re looking for a large dog that can still cuddle with your kids or a small breed that will fit in your Altadena, CA, studio apartment, Pasadena Humane has the furry friend for you. Each of our pups is excited and ready to go home with their perfect companion. We spay/neuter all animals before adoption, and they’re always microchipped and up-to-date on their vaccines.

Get Started

Cats

If the pup life isn’t for you, we also have hundreds of adorable kittens and cats of all ages. Whether you want a lower-maintenance pet or appreciate the independent attitude of the feline, our cats are in need of homes that can make them feel safe, protected, and loved. We have kitten litters, independent cats and bonded pairs, so no matter what kind of cat you want in your heart and home, we have something for everyone. If you’re looking for a critter companion, we have rabbits, guinea pigs and other furry friends looking for their forever home. View our adoptable animals and learn more about our adoption process.

Become a Foster Pet Parent in Altadena, CA

If you want to make a difference in the life of an animal in need, fostering is a great opportunity for Altadena, CA, families not yet ready to adopt. Fostering is a flexible and rewarding program for you, and it helps improve the quality of life and chances of adoption for the animal you’re fostering. You can give our long-term residents a break from the kennel and allow them to enjoy a loving home environment, or you can help an injured pup recover from their injury or illness. Our kittens and larger dogs are in greater need of compassionate foster care; these pets would significantly benefit from having someone to give them a warm area to cuddle or a large space to run and frolic. No matter what, we provide Altadena, CA, volunteers with all the training, supplies, veterinary care, and support they need to care for their foster animal worry-free. All you need to do is provide a safe and loving home for them to enjoy until they find their new owners. If you want to adopt but aren’t 100 percent sure, fostering can help with that too! Some of our adoptable animals are eligible to go home with you on a trial basis. We’ll even send you back to your Altadena, CA, home with all the initial supplies you’ll need to care for them, and you’ll have 10 days to decide on adoption. Our mission is always to get more animals into loving homes, even on a temporary basis. If you want to be that salvation for a Pasadena Humane pet and foster a dog, cat or rabbit, register as a foster volunteer today.
