Alyssa and rest of the team helped out my family and I tremendously finding furrier homes upon finding 5 kittens under our deck and 7 more in our alley. They also took in the “Mother Hen” who not only took care and nursed her babies but the rest of the bunch too. Thank you so much for the work you do for the community!!

I recently adopted a kitten from the Humane Society of Harrisburg Area, and I cannot recommend them enough! From start to finish, the entire experience was absolutely wonderful.
What truly set this experience apart was their open adoption process.
