Welcome to the Humane Society of Warren County, Virginia

The Humane Society of Warren County is a non-profit animal shelter in Front Royal, Virginia.  Established in 1947, we have been a safe haven to the lost, abandoned and abused pets in Warren County for over 70 years.  In 2012 we achieved no-kill status, and are proud to maintain it.  You can expect an inviting and welcoming atmosphere when you visit the shelter, and compassionate care for our animals.

We have many community minded programs designed to educate and support our neighbors, including a free pet food bank, a low-cost spay/neuter program, and twice yearly rabies clinics at the shelter.

We are a passionate group of employees, volunteers and fosters working hard to achieve a future where every pet is a wanted pet.

Kitten season is in full swing! Yesterday we took the orange kitten in ( first pictured) after he was rescued off the side of the highway - the poor little guy is very skinny and but is now safe and sound thanks to the finder. We’ve also just taken in another litter of 4 kittens and their very sweet mom - mom has been coming around as a stray for a few months and gave birth under the porch where she’s been caring for these cute babies the last 3 weeks. Now that they’re safe here at the shelter we could really use some help with donations - we’re almost completely out of wet kitten food. If you’re able to donate monetarily or directly through our Amazon wishlist we’d greatly appreciate any help we can get! * These kittens are not available for adoption at this time and we will not be able to accept adoption applications for them * Amazon Wishlist: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/12A5HHZ4D0C70?ref_=wl_share ...

Sweet Brutus was found as a friendly stray in a feral colony (hence the ear tip) and rescued in the hopes he’d find a nice indoor home instead of having to fend for himself outside. He has a very gentle, shy personality but warms up with some patience and pets. We think he’d be fine living with kids, cats and/ or dogs with proper, slow introductions.Brutus is 5 years old, neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped and tested negative for FIV/ FeLV.
