Maui Humane Society

Reinforce the human-animal link and establish a location where people can help animals and animals can help people in order to end animal abuse, neglect, and homelessness on the island of Maui.

We were simply a handful of cat lovers who were dedicated to doing the right thing on a remote island without a shelter, rescue organization, or doctor. Leading these initiatives was the vivacious cat lover and founder of The Sanctuary, Kathy Carroll (pictured), who had relocated to the island with her artist husband Mike. In the beginning, her activism and innovation propelled the organization.

In addition to rescuing and fostering these animals, we also provide food, medical attention, and safe sheltering for them until they can be placed permanently in loving and responsible homes. Some animals may pass away at the Sanctuary, in foster homes, or by being given back to their human companions.

Kona Foster Felines is a non-profit organization that has been rescuing stray cats and kittens and finding them homes in Kailua Kona, Hawaii since 2006.

The Hawaiian Humane Society is committed to advancing the relationship between people and animals and the humane treatment of all animals.

The goals of the Hawaii Island Humane Society are to stop animal abuse, get rid of pet overpopulation, and strengthen the relationship between people and animals.
