Pets Fur People

We have saved over 90,000 pets in 56 years. We rely 100% on donations to do our work. Pets Fur People is the oldest No-Kill shelter in East Texas.

Every animal in our care is safe from euthanasia for as long as it takes us to find them a home. We believe that every dog and cat in our community should have the life it deserves - a warm bed, a full belly, a well cared for body and a loving home.

At the end of the season, Bolts Backers will donate directly to these organizations a gift in the player's name."

Our senior lady, Lucy, was not happy when she arrived last February. In fact, she was a bit scary! After months of TLC and patience our technicians fell in love with her and set out to find the perfect person for her. Lucy snapped at several interviewers until she CHOSE Kenya Ballard.
Keyna tells us that all is well so far. Lucy met the horses and the chickens and she is very happy with her new cat!
-We love Happy endings like Lucy's!

Our Story

At The Humane Society's Pets Fur People, we provide an animal sanctuary for cats and dogs while helping them find their forever families.

Over the last 50 years, we have saved thousands of animals through facilitating pet adoptions and teaching responsible pet ownership at our no-kill pet shelter in Tyler, Texas.

As a selective admission, life-sustaining animal shelter in Tyler, Texas, our mission is to provide a temporary haven for cats and dogs while helping them find the right home. By committing to these animals and connecting them with caring, loving families, we hope to reduce and ultimately eliminate the practice of euthanasia as an acceptable method of population control.

For more information about our animal shelter and how you can help out through adoptions and donations, please contact us today.
