WAYS TO DONATE
SHAID Tree Animal Shelter is a registered charity (130169113RR0001) established in 1986 by a community of people dedicated to welfare of local animals in need. We provide temporary care and shelter to helpless animals in distress and place as many as possible into loving and responsible homes. We are proudly a no-kill shelter. We also strive to educate the public in responsible pet ownership and strongly promote the spaying and neutering of pets.
In 2022 SHAID rehomed 513 cats and 38 dogs and supported more animals with life saving surgery than ever before. From amputations, full dental removal and eye removal to the routine spaying and neutering of pets and strays, these surgeries were essential and expensive. SHAID is a registered charity that receives no government funding, thus we rely entirely on support from our community.
Each blanket donated keeps a cat warm.
Each dollar feeds and homes an animal in need of care.
Each thank you to the staff and volunteers keeps them going.
Thank you for supporting the helpless and homeless animals in our community.
