The Humane Society does not get a dime from me…because last time I went there to get a pet, the BUILDING was new, shiny, gorgeous and clearly built by a high-end builder who made a bundle on it. But it held fewer animals than the old building.

I support a more humble shelter organization in this town that places tons of pets and even rescues abused horses. My cat sends them a thank-you note every anniversary and includes a donation.

That’s a lot of the problem. HSUS is not what you think of as “the Humane Society”. They don’t run shelters. Shelters are generally run by an organization with a similar name but they are not HSUS. In my town the shelter is run by “Larimer Humane Society”, they are their own non-profit and not associated with HSUS. HSUS is just a PETA style group that chose a deceptive name to fool people into contributing to them.

While HSUS is suing folks, they should sue Charitynavigator.org for putting them under a donor advisory for deceptive practices.
