Humane societies were created to prevent cruelty to animals and to give them a good home while going through the adoption process. I never really contacted a humane society when I had found the lost pets becuase I did not know they would accept just any animal. At times I called the police station to see if any pets had been reported missing. That is a very good way to find the owners because a police man comes to your house, looks up the tag information on his computer and within minutes the owner is contacted. Yet, not all animals have a tag. This is when you would take them to a local hunane society.
