Acadiana Humane Society is low on pet food, and can use a few hundred pounds of donated cat, kitten, dog, rabbit, and guinea pig food ASAP: These are our preferred brands, but we will use whatever is donated: Purina Pro Plan Cat & Kitten Food, Purina Pro Plan Dog Food, and Purina Rabbit Pellets. We have a donation box in the lobby of Bridge Storage on Ambassador Caffery in Lafayette. Or, you can bring it to us at our next adoption event. You can also text us at 337-371-5477 to arrange for us to pick up your donations.
If you would like to make a donation to help with vet bills or pet food we do have a Paypal button on the right side of this webpage. You can also send us a check or money order made out to Acadiana Humane Society to our snail mail address at P.O. Drawer C; Sunset, LA. 70584-0536
If you are interested in adopting any of our animals, the first step is to download our prescreening application. Once you have filled out the WORD document on your computer, save it as a new file, and then attach it to an email and send it to us at ahspets@gmail.com. It normally takes one business day from when we receive your application to do the initial processing of your application. However, if you send in an application on one of the new rescue kittens that we recently took in, we may not process your application as quickly as we normally would. But, we will process them in the order we received them, before the kittens are completely ready for adoption.

*Also, please be aware that while our office may be closed during some days, we will reply to emails and process applications as we can. We are a foster based rescue, so there is no public facility to visit. Our animals can be viewed online on our Facebook page and our Petfinder page. If you are interested in meeting one or more of our pets, please download and fill out our prescreening application and submit it to us via email or fax. Email is actually faster as we are not always in the office to check the fax machine, and sometimes the fax fails. Once an application is processed, we can make an appointment to meet, or we will arrange to bring the selected pet to our next adoption event. Our animal rescue is 100% volunteer and all of our volunteers have families and jobs outside of the rescue, so it may take a little time to hear back from us. While we try to respond to everything within one business day, we get hundreds of emails and messages daily, and sometimes it is just not possible to reply to every one right away. Email is usually the fastest way to get a response, since replies can be made late at night if need be. We believe it is important to allow our volunteers some free time to spend with their families. Thank you for understanding.
