Adopt from Fosters

Many of our foster animals are healing, or too young for adoption. But not Deborah and Dominic! These two rabbits are ready to find their home, even though they aren't at the shelter right now!

Meet Them

We are just starting to revitalize and grow our foster program, so look forward to even more updates about fostering opportunities, and animals in the care of our community friends.

Reach out to our foster coordinator, Kimmy, if you're interested in fostered (or fosterING!) animals.

Caring for the Animals of Champaign County

Champaign County Humane Society is a full-service animal shelter, providing companion animals with essential medical care in a healthy environment to prepare them for adoption into new loving homes. We also provide humane education and a variety of programs to support and promote responsible pet ownership and prevent abandonment, cruelty and neglect. Since we opened our first shelter in 1954, we've helped thousands of animals find loving homes! Join us in making a lasting impact.
