He loves to give kitty kisses! And he’s perfect! Shel is a rotund sweetheart, who wants nothing more than to rub against your legs and cuddle. He warms up very quickly as well, trust us! He’d come to love you even if you don’t bribe him with those little balls with bells–though he won’t say no.

We recommend starting your search for a new pet online. If you see a pet you want to meet, note their location and write down their ID number. We have three adoption facilities: Leslie A Malone Center in Denver, The Buddy Center in Castle Rock, and the San Luis Valley Animal Center in Alamosa. Adoptions are on a first come, first served basis. We regularly update our available cats, dogs, and small mammals online, but there’s always a possibility that the pet you saw on our site will find a home before you get a chance to visit. Learn everything you need to know about adopting a pet from Humane Colorado on the pet adoptions process page.
When you adopt a pet, please bring: A valid photo ID with your current address. If your ID does not have your current address, please bring another type of proof, such a utility bill, water bill or vehicle registration. Family members needed to finalize the adoption.
