I have nothing but wonderful things to say about the Lakeshore Humane Society. Just the other day I came into look at cats. I left with a 2 year old black cat named “Moody”, now re-named Glen! I had such a wonderful experience at this place. The lady that helped me out was extremely patient with me, as it took me almost two hours to decide on a cat. they let me see all of them, and play with them, and take them into a separate room where i could better see their personalities. they let me borrow a carrier to take the cat home in, they sent me with food, and all of his proper paperwork. the man that was caring for my cat at the shelter took such great care of him, and he was so happy to see the cat find a home. my cat was well loved there and i would absolutely donate and adopt from there again. (We had a welcome home party for him, he is such an amazing cat)

I am very disappointed in this non-profit organization. Their adoption procedure is unbelievably unorganized and unacceptable. Lakeshore Human Society received a dog that they were not supposed to receive. They were in contact with the breeder of the dog which was supposed to get it back if the owner did not want the dog but instead, it ended up in the shelter. The breeder advised the Society who they would like the dog to go to but instead, they did the opposite. Not only did they ignore the breeder they ignored phone calls and no call backs when messages were left. Their excuse is they are only volunteers. Isn’t that part of volunteering and your job? I understand not calling back same day, but still 5 days later no call back?? I have heard a lot of complaints regarding this organization, and I am not sure why it’s still up and running and they are still taking in animals. I truly feel bad for these animals that are in this shelter. They all deserve a special home and taken care of. They should not be treated like puppets and prizes to bring in more money for the shelter.

Great experience. Great prices. Owners processed my adoption application right away and contacted my references same day and called me and gave me their cell. Organized things around my schedule. Can't say enough good things.

Their hours vary because they are all volunteer. You need to call to make an appointment to see the animals. Good luck. :)
