St. Charles Parish Animal Shelter Humane SocietyThe St. Charles Humane Society was formed with a Vision to establish humane treatment of animals and create an adoption and sterilization program at the St. Charles Animal Control Center in Luling. The shelter had been built in the early 1980s for the sole purpose of picking up abandoned, stray and unwanted pets. The outcome for 98% of these animals was euthanasia. St. Charles Humane Society began recruiting residents, businesses and garnered St. Charles Parish Council support to turn the Vision into reality. In October 1993, the Board of Directors was established with a small base of dedicated volunteers. A contract between the Parish and the Society took over a year to develop. Upon approval by the 1993 Council, the volunteers moved into an office at the shelter. The dedication of all members has led to one of the most professional and successful humane groups in Louisiana. Many unforeseen goals have been obtained since the inception of the society. A cruelty investigator was initiated within the Sheriffs Department at the request of the Society and abuse calls were finally taken seriously. In 1996 and 2003, the St. Charles Humane Society helped implement animal ordinances to protect animals, promote responsibility for pet ownership and protect residents from dangerous animals. In 2000, a supervisor of the shelter was granted through Parish Council approval. Since that time, numerous improvements have been made to the shelter. A separate room for cats and kittens; platforms for the dogs to get off the cold concrete and stay dry and warm. In May 2003, a surgery and exam room was created with the help of a grant from PETsMART Charities. A giant step for spaying and neutering animals before they leave the shelter and; finally, a way of taking care of all the animals at the shelter. Healthy animals slated for euthanasia are sterilized and have a second chance. Diseased animals are euthanized immediately and do not languish at the shelter. The society became a PETsMART Partner in 1999 and in 2003 the St. Charles Humane Society became the sole group for adoptions. Ten cats are available at the store every day of the week and the Society brings in dogs on the weekends.13875 Frere Street, Luling LA US 70047 Ph:(985)785-9136 http://www.stcharleshumanesociety.com Email: webmaster@stcharleshumanesociety.com
