HISTORY OF THE KENT ANIMAL SHELTER
Thirty years ago a small group of humanitarians established the
Kent Animal Shelter to care for the abused, abandoned and homeless
animals. It stands as a testament to their vision, efforts and
dedication-A haven where thousands of unfortunate animals have
found love, and left misery and pain behind them. Roger Caras,
internationally acclaimed author and wildlife correspondent, once
said of Kent Animal Shelter that it is "evidence of Man's
capacity for concern."
ABOUT THE KENT ANIMAL SHELTER
The Kent Animal Shelter is a private, not for profit humane society
founded in 1968 to provide a haven for homeless, abused and abandoned
animals until new homes can be found. The shelter never destroys
an animal unless incurably ill. Over 600 animals are placed in
responsible homes each year and more than 300 animals are spayed
or neutered at the Kent low cost Spay/Neuter clinic. Kent Animal
Shelter also has a Pet Therapy Program and a Retirement Home Program
for cats that survive their owners. Located on the scenic property
near the Peconic River, with a dedicated staff, spacious exercise
facilities and expert medical supervision, Kent is much more than
a shelter.
We have been bringing pets and people together for over 30 years.
