If you have contained a stray animal and are unable to reunite the pet with it’s owner, please call the Humane Society of Southern Wisconsin at (608) 752-5622 during our open hours. It is best to call before stopping by the shelter so we can get as much information up front as possible. We can then cross-reference our lost reports to find any potential matches. Because we are a non-profit organization and for safety and agency requirements, we aren’t able to pick up stray animals. We ask that you bring the animal to us if you can. If you are unable to transport the animal, please call Rock County Dispatch at 608-757-2244 for assistance. HSSW also has live traps available for rent. 

If you have found young kittens, please review the following before bringing them to HSSW: I Found a Kitten, What Do I Do?
