Benewah Humane Society (BHS) is facing some very real challenges with which we, once again, appeal to citizens of Benewah County for support:
Hope’s Haven needs structural repairs and renovation -- Estimated cost: $25,000 > <
· The foundation in some places is rotting (untreated timbers were used during construction, and the 1996 flood added to the problem).
· Renovations would include expanding the surgical clinic area to use ½ of the garage (to improve sanitation) and enclosing the outside dog area to keep the wind, rain, and snow out.
Enough, already? Nope!
Newest need surfaced February 2020:
The air conditioning system is best replaced rather than repaired! Estimated cost: $10,000 > <
REMEMBER: IT’S YOUR SHELTER, TOO ! P-L-E-A-S-E ~ lend your support !
Amazon Smiles is a great way to donate without having to actually give money to Benewah Humane Society. Every purchase you make for yourself, Amazon Smiles donates 0.5% of all eligible purchases to us!

- The Community Cat Program is a free service to Benewah County residents (as well as some outlying rural areas). Its annual budget is $37,765. It is estimated it will take another six years to get the feral cat population under control. Since the program began in March 2016 there have been 1,202 felines sterilized - that amounts to around 25,000 kittens that will never be born!
- Bottom Line: Over time BHS will see a huge savings in operating costs for the care of kittens!
- Appeals to the Community…
- Grant applications are being submitted, fundraisers are calendared, and our Membership appeal is in progress...
- The Board is looking into finding corporate sponsors in hopes of leveling out the “roller coaster” affect with finances.
