Humane Society of Tampa Bay

The Humane Society of Tampa Bay is dedicated to ending animal homelessness and providing care and comfort for companion animals in need. HSTB is a Managed Admission shelter that works to help stop the needless euthanizing of adoptables animals in the Tampa Bay area. We now take owned adoptable dogs and cats by appointment only. We also transfer more than 3,000 dogs and cats from high-euthanasia facilities to our shelter each year. We do not euthanize a dog or cat to make room for another one. SERVICES Pet Adoption Program We provide friendly, healthy companion animals to responsible and prepared pet owners. All pets are spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped before being made available for adoption. Animal Health Center Low-cost sterilization and affordable, high-quality veterinary care for owned pets is available to the public, seven days a week. Trap/Neuter/Vaccinate/Retrun (TNVR) Program for Feral Cats We provide reduced rates for spaying, neutering and vaccination of ferals and free roaming cats. Contact our TNVR Program at 813.625.0910 or tnvr@humanesocieytampa.org for more information.
