Aloha there, cool humans! I’m Agatha, a lovable 1-year-old hound mix and your soon-to-be favorite cuddle buddy and new BFF. I’m soft, friendly, and always ready to accept treats like a true connoisseur! Now, I’ll confess: I’m a tad shy at first, but don’t let that fool you—I’m just a superstar waiting for my spotlight (and a little gentle head rub doesn’t hurt either!). When things get a bit loud, I like to gracefully assume my “lay down and chill” position—call it my meditation practice. I’m easy to handle. I get along well with other dogs, but I’d absolutely love a sidekick who will give me the one-on-one attention I crave. I’m also making strides to get to know toys, although they’re still a bit mysterious. I promise to reward you with endless love and affection. Whether you’re here on the island or ready to fly me to the mainland, let’s make some adorable memories together—apply today and let’s get this adventure started! Schedule a meet and greet today or walk in anytime from 12 pm - 4 pm except for Thursdays.

More about this shelter
The Kauai Humane Society was established by the community in 1952 as a local non-profit 501(c)(3) organization to protect Kauai’s animals. We opened our current home just west of Lihue in 2001 thanks to the generous support of many individuals, families, businesses and foundations. We are an independent animal welfare organization and not a chapter of any mainland or Hawaii group.
The Kauai Humane Society(KHS) is the only physical animal shelter in Kauai County, Hawaii. We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization with a government contract to allow KHS to provide services to Kauai County for humane field services for cats and dogs.
Our facility does not turn away any sick or injured cat or dog found on Kauai. We strive to not euthanize any healthy, adoptable, and/or treatable animals for space or treatable medical reasons.
In 2022, for the year overall, KHS achieved a Live Release Rate of 94.4%; meaning 94.4% of the animals that came into KHS during 2022 were released with a positive outcome of being adopted, returned to the owner, or transferred to a rescue group.
