My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

HELLO THERE PEOPLE! My name is Wuss Puss(like from the movie Coraline! maybe even check out my friend Coraline here at the shelter)! I am a 6 year old man looking for my forever home! I am the epitome of in your face! I will scream for your attention and always need to be causing havoc! I would be great for someone looking for a very playful cat that gets excited at the sound of hoomans! I have not been tested with dogs at this time. Absolutely no cats in my forever home! Kids in the home are going to have to be able to deal with my craziness and persistent need for attention. Complete an application to meet me!

Additional adoption info

We do not work on a first come, first served basis for our animals. We look for the best match between the animal and the family/person looking to adopt. We also will foster adoptable animals in homes in certain cases to make sure that animal is a good fit in that home prior to completing an adoption.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

You can meet our adoptable animals at our shelter, 1837 E Pleasant Valley Boulevard, Altoona on Tuesdays to Sundays from 12.30 - 4.30pm with extended hours to 7pm on Fridays. We are closed on Monday. We also have adoption events at our local Petco stores which we feature on our Facebook page.

More about this shelter

The Central PA Humane Society (CPHS) was established in 1964. We are a non profit 501c3 who receives no government or national rescue organization funding. We survive solely on grants we apply for, our fundraisers we put on and donations from our community. We are a 'life saving' shelter and only ever euthanize animals that are deemed dangerous to our staff and volunteers. This is after we have tried training, foster homes etc to give that animal every chance at a life outside of the shelter. We do euthanize animal that have life threatening injuries or illness that cannot be medically treated by a veterinarian.

CPHS has a dedicated team of staff and volunteers that cater to every animal in their care. We have enrichment programs for both dogs and cats to enable their time with us to be enjoyable and less stressful. We are very proud of our canine cardio and foster for the day programs than allow dogs to leave our facility and get some time out being walked or simply chilling out in someones home.

Our fundraisers are hugely popular in the community with events such as; Chili Fest, Bikers for Barkers, Paws in the Park, Fur Ball, Chocoholics Night out, Mimosas on the Lake to name a few! These fundraisers are instrumental in helping us look after the nearly 1,800 animals that come through our doors.
