The Gateway Humane Society is dedicated to improving the lives of unwanted, lost or abandoned cats and dogs. We provide medical attention along with a safe, clean environment for the animals to live in until a loving person or family comes along to provide the pet a new home. Our shelter is a No-Kill shelter. Our motto: no matter how long, we will find you a home. The Gateway Humane Society is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that relies on the good will and generosity of individuals and corporations to provide proper care for our pets. We believe in the prevention of cruelty to animals and reducing the over population of domestic animals by spaying and neutering pets. The Board of Directors, staff and volunteers are dedicated to the pets housed in our shelter 24/7.
