About This Service

Mission:
The Bedford Humane Society is dedicated to eliminating pet overpopulation and suffering in the town and county of Bedford through education, spay/neuter programs, and pet adoptions. The organization also aims to prevent animal cruelty and neglect through advocacy and humane education.

Who They Serve

The Bedford Humane Society serves cats, dogs, and people in the Bedford area. All animals in their care are placed in foster homes, where they receive individualized attention, care, and training to prepare them for adoption into loving families. The organization is volunteer-based and relies on donor support.

Programs and Services

  • Adoption Services: All adoptable animals are housed in foster homes. Interested individuals must submit an application to be considered for a meet & greet and adoption.
  • Spay/Neuter Shuttle: In partnership with Angels of Assisi, discounted spay/neuter services are offered to residents of Bedford County.
  • Animeals: This pet food pantry provides food for pets of individuals facing financial insecurity, ensuring that pets can remain in their homes even during difficult times.
  • Forgotten Felines: The organization works with veterinary partners to offer affordable Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) solutions for feral cat colonies in Bedford County.
  • Borrow a Trap: Tools and resources are provided to assist with feral cat colony management and TNR efforts.
