Welcome Friends!

Welcome to our website! The Humane Society of Cambria County is here to serve both the animals and the people of Johnstown and all of Cambria County, Pennsylvania. Our primary purpose is to place homeless companion animals into permanent, loving homes and to promote public education and awareness.

We have sheltered more than 129,000 stray, abused, and unwanted pets since we were founded in 1976 and that number continues to grow. The motto of the Humane Society is "Open Your Heart" and we invite you to see the wonderful animals waiting for adoption into a new family.

Along with animal adoption, the Humane Society also provides other critical services to the community. These include dog licenses, public education, spay/neuter advocacy, cruelty investigations and animal rescue operations.

THANK YOU to our members and friends who donated to the 2009 Holiday Drive and to the area stores who displayed our collection barrels. All supplies received will help greatly in our care for the animals in our shelter.

Good Advice from our Electricity Supplier

Each year accidents around the home result in millions of injuries to the most vulnerable members of your family -- young children and pets. With a few precautions, accidents from electrical sources can be avoided. Some tips that apply to pets are:

.Keep electrical cords away from cats and puppies who love to chew on them.

.Make sure night lights and appliances are fully plugged in. Partially exposed prongs can be a temptation to curious critters

.Keep halogen lamps away from pet play areas. If they are knocked over, they could start a fire.

.Keep appliances in bathrooms away from water. Playful pets can knock radios or curling irons into water, creating a dangerous situation

.Discourage cats and dogs from curling up for naps behind electrical equipment such as computers.
