Pets & People Humane Society is a 501(c)3 non-profit, no-kill humane society that rescues adoptable cats and dogs from municipal animal control facilities across the state of Oklahoma on the day they are to be euthanized. We provide a safe harbor for our pets until they are adopted into responsible, loving homes. All are spayed or neutered to help end the vicious cycle of homeless pets. Â Â Â
History:
1990: Pets & People was formed by Pam Wright, Mel Berger, Donelda Wheatley and Jody Harlan, in February, 1990 as a pet therapy program where volunteers visited nursing centers in Yukon , Oklahoma. Later, Pets & People expanded into a full service humane society, which rescues dog and cats from area animal shelters. To support the pets the shelter was rescuing, Pets and People added a foster home program, community projects, and school education projects emphasizing the importance of spay/neuter. Additionally, a thrift store was added. Pets and People became a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
1992: Pets and People's association with PETsMART Corporation began. Weekly adoption fairs were held in local Petsmarts to place dogs and cats in suitable homes.
1993: The Junior Pets & People program was implemented to provide valuable education and fundraising.
1994: Pets and People received the national "Do Something" grant for the school visitation education project.
1996: PETsMART Pet Supply Corporation awarded Pets and People Humane Society the Petsmart "Humane Award of Excellence" trophy. In part, PETsMART said, "Pets and People exemplifies the spirit of dedication and volunteerism in the area of animal welfare."
