I filled out an application to adopt a cat over a month ago. I spoke with both Steph and Ashley about cats that would meet my criteria that i would like to meet and they tell me that those cats don't meet my criteria even though I know they did or I would not have bothered to ask to meet them. Ashley and Steph tell me that they are both working on finding me the perfect cat and that my preferences and my personal information are on a board and would get top priority. We'll that was a month ago and the cats I inquired about are still there and they have NOT called me once about a cat. All I want is a friendly lap cat. I dont think I'm asking that much. The last time I called I talked to Krystal who said what the others said. I JUST WANT A CAT., Also customer service is terrible, all you get when you call is an answering machine with prompts in which to leave a message. DONT BOTHER LEAVING A MESSAGE, THEY WONT CALL YOU BACK. There needs to be someone in charge that I can talk to over there about the hassle I'm getting in being able to adopt a cat. Thanks for listening Betty Shea

I had a good experience I don't remember her name, but she has worked there for 13 years oh, and she was excellent sadly I could not take a spa specific cat home, unfortunately I could not take this one home it was just too young. Just waiting for the right one to come along. That day will come

A very clean shelter with incredibly compassionate and professional staff that genuinely care for the animals and are attentive to their needs. The busy staff deserve tremendous thanks for all their hard work. We unfortunately had to surrender our two cats to LHS, at a very difficult time for our family. The staff did everything they could to ease the process for the cats and for us. They answered all our questions and went above and beyond in reviewing all the information we provided to them and learning how to take care of the cats. We are so incredibly grateful for their efforts.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Hi, there is a stray cat under my neighbors porch with 2 kittens. They look about 4 weeks old. Does your shelter send people who can help catch them and bring them to the shelter?

Kelly Tierney | Aug 20, 2021
Sam Sullivan | Aug 20, 2021

Call them immediately. I believe they're open until 4pm today or 12-2 on Sundays. If they're unable to help or don't have traps available, there are many rescues around that do. You can try Billerica Cat Coalition or Kitty Angels in Tyngsboro. My guess is theyll know someone locally who will want to get them in before winter. You didn't specify what town you were in, but different shelters have specific "coverage areas" so please call Lowell Humane today and thank you for taking the time to help the kittens and their mother. You've got good Karma coming.

Do you have shelter for 2 cats age 4 fixed

Lisa Capachietti | Aug 21, 2019
Jason Wilkinson | Aug 21, 2019

They have lots of room and are always there to take animals and give them a good home. They will quarantine animals multiple times and try to rehome them as much as possible. They are not a kill shelter unless the animal is absolutely dangerous after being quarantined multiple times

Do you guys have animal supplies

Itz_ ThatGirlEmi | Aug 21, 2019

They actually have all kinds of animals but due to their type of business they always get new pets and people adopt them. So you have to go see them to see what they have at the time. Talk to Crystal, she's the manager.

How much is it to fix a Male 80 lb dog

Lisa Hildreth | Aug 20, 2020
Geoffrey Feldman | Aug 20, 2020

Call them and ask. Here we are volunteers from the community. They are great people but like all humane societies they want people to understand caring for pets is a long term commitment. Caring for a dog or cat properly has costs. Neutering a dog is a small part of lifetime costs

Felix Aponte | Aug 20, 2020
Joey Meara | Aug 20, 2020

No. There is always a fee to adopt.

Claudette Judge | Aug 20, 2020
Geoffrey Feldman | Aug 20, 2020

This connects to local volunteer guides not to the humane society call them in the morning. If not gizmo they have great cats.

are you accepting dogs for adoption?

George Pierce | Aug 20, 2020
Geoffrey Feldman | Aug 20, 2020

I believe generally yes but it may depend on the dog and whether they have space. We are local guides and not working there. Call them and discuss.

Is there volunteers there and how old would you have to be? And how do you apply?

Pancake Waffle | Aug 21, 2019
Amber G | Aug 21, 2019

Can I buy a puppy because of my daughter's birthday😊

Bkabi75 Kabi | Aug 21, 2019
Akef Ahmadzadeh | Aug 21, 2019

Occasionally, they have puppies but there are more dogs over age 2. Although puppies are very cute, I suggest giving a more senior dog a second chance. They are usually trained and very friendly. Sadly, most of them are very lonely.

I would like to get a dog where do I start ?

Stephanie Ann | Aug 21, 2019
Bob Porter | Aug 21, 2019

Contact the society by phone.

Are you a no kill shelter

janice wolfendale | Aug 21, 2019
Bella Lopez | Aug 21, 2019

I was told they were another kill shelter in less the animal shelter and the pet in guestion is not able to be saved I do know that I asked guestion s and was told they only keep them a certian amount of time and they ship them to a bigger shelter in our region and state I hope that this helped you but that is the information I was told and if you are interested in a animal that was shipped to another shelter they should have a record of the move and if the animal is still up for adoption allso. Believe. They need to exercise there cats a bit more and clean all of them up a bit more speaking of the Lowell humain society maybe need more volunteers to help like I said hope this was helpful Doreen

is it legal to use humane animal traps in massachusettes

Dorothy Sweeney | Aug 21, 2018
Maureen Demers | Aug 21, 2018

I believe you can if you are trying to trap and release feral cats. The humane society usually has some kind of program or rescue groups that do this. You can contact the MSPCA in Methuen. Not sure if they do it from thr Lowell one. If its a wild animal you can contact a professional wildlife trapping company or the local Animal Control Officer

What adult cats are up for adoption?

Robert Brinkert | Aug 21, 2018
zendegy P | Aug 21, 2018

The website has pics of available cats.

If it's donations why are the prices set for the adoption of pets? Also do you have any wiggle room regarding pricing? I'd love to adopt 2 kittens, but I can't afford $250.00.

Susan Martin Tebbetts | Aug 21, 2018
zendegy P | Aug 21, 2018

The money is used to pay to spay/neuter and care for animals with medical needs, and who are not adopted quickly. And donations aren't enough for all the expenses.
