Humane Society of Northwest Montana

The Charlotte Edkins Animal Adoption Center opened its doors to animals in need and to all of Northwest Montana in July, 2004. The animal adoption center is operated by the Humane Society of Northwest Montana.

The location of this new and wonderful temporary home for the animals is 3499 Hwy 93 N., 2½ miles north of the large traffic intersection of Hwy 93 N. and West Reserve Drive in Kalispell, Montana. The center sits in a convenient spot between the busy towns of Kalispell and Whitefish. On the east side of the highway, it is highly visible and easy to find. Look for the yellow Humane Society sign out front.

Located in the beautiful Flathead Valley, the Humane Society of Northwest Montana serves a population of approximately 75,000 people. Flathead County is a rapidly growing area as people from other parts of Montana and other states come here to be part of the friendly and laid back atmosphere of a northwestern community that loves its mountains, wildlife and natural places. Visitors to the Flathead often comment on how welcome they feel and how renewed they are by the end of their stay. Yet although northwest Montana is an incredible place to live, some aspects of life here are not as happy, safe and comfortable as we would all like. The pet overpopulation problem is a serious one here in the Flathead Valley. The suffering brought about by abandonment, abuse and neglect of animals is a tragedy which diminishes the peaceful life we cherish as human beings. We believe you'll agree with us that the number of animals euthanized each year in our community - over 1,500 annually - simply for lack of available homes, is unacceptable. We believe that with your help, every homeless dog, cat, puppy and kitten in our community can find love and protection. That's right, every one. We invite you to join our effort to find loving homes for 100 per cent of them. The new animal adoption center is a safe haven which makes it possible for all of us to work together to end the destruction of healthy animals in our home towns.

We hope you will visit our site often to view the pets that are waiting for homes, and to learn about the many opportunities available to you for helping save these wonderful animals. Our secure donation site is an easy place for you to make a gift that makes an important difference in each animal’s life. You can also find out about volunteering with us, and about fostering animals with our program. We will keep you updated on events and other news….all to provide the great shelter, medical care, food, and extra loving care for the animals who come to the Charlotte Edkins Animal Adoption Center.
