The
HSTC does not
euthanize an
animal unless
our team agrees
its quality of
life is critically
compromised.
HSTC
placed over
500 companion
animals into
homes 2004-2005
fiscal years.
We
have a net
loss of $205
on every
dog and $80
on every
cat adopted
out.
We
accept as many
animals for adoption
that our donations
and volunteers
can support.
More
donations and
volunteers=more
happy adopted
pets and fewer
animals euthanized.
During
County-wide emergencies
our crew of staff & volunteers
assist Animal
Control with
pet rescue and
providing temporary
shelter.
We
offer spay/neuter
discount vouchers
on the first
working Monday
of the month.
Assistance
is available
to low income
cat owners from
SNAP (Spay Neuter
Assistance Program),
program held
the last week
of each month.

The Humane Society
of Tuolumne County is a non-profit
501 (c)(3) organization established
December 12, 1947 . At that time,
however, there was no facility.
The animals available for adoption
were kept in volunteers’ homes.
In the late l980’s, the
Humane Society gained a business
office, but the animals were
still kept in the homes of volunteers.
Then, in 1997, the Humane Society
acquired its current facility
in Jamestown where there are
35 dog runs and 36 cat cages
with a capacity to shelter over
90 animals.
We are a limited
intake facility. Half our adoptable
animals come from Tuolumne County
Animal Control, and the remaining
adoptable animals are owner released.
We have 5 employees;
all the other people who help
at the shelter are volunteers.
We work at the shelter because
we respect life and care about
the welfare of animals.
One very important
point: The HSTC does not euthanize
an animal unless its quality
of life is critically compromised.
One person does not make this
decision. A Review Committee,
which includes the Shelter Manager
and the Kennel and Cattery Managers,
as well as members of the Board
of Directors and volunteers in
good standing, explore every
other option before the decision
is made.
