Who We Are
The Humane Society of Aransas County was founded in 1988 and we are a 501(C)3 non profit organization relying solely on donations from the community. We are now located on three acres of land (generously donated) on Myrtle Street in Fulton, Texas. Our shelter is a no-kill facility and is, consequently, ALWAYS at full capacity. Our animals always recieve the best of medical attention and in home care until they are adopted.
We house approximately 80 dogs and 100 cats. Unlike many other shelters, our dogs are not totally confined in cages. They all have play areas. Out cattery allows cats to remain inside or go out in a screened area.
We are striving to make Aransas County a NO-KILL county and we are trying to accomplish this by implementing an aggressive spay/neuter program. We not only offer low cost spay/neuter to the community, but we also sterilize every animal leaving the Aransas County Animal Control Facility. In the interest of all animal welfare, we take care of any sick or injured animal picked up by Aransas County Animal Control.
Our endeavors are very costly and we are always in great need of donations and volunteers. If you are interested in saving the animals, please call or come by to see us. We are open 6 days a week.
