Can you imagine having to give up your pet simply because you couldn’t afford food or veterinary care? Sadly, many people in our community are facing that very real dilemma.
So we’re helping hundreds of families through our Pet Safety Net, providing:
- Free community clinics, administering vaccinations, microchips, flea meds, and more for hundreds of dogs and cats each year.
- Pet food deliveries to people’s home and to food pantries.
And with your donations, we can continue helping treasured pets stay in their loving homes.
There are three easy ways to help!
- Buy an e-gift card from Amazon, Target, or Safeway and email it to petfooddrive@marinhumane.org. We can then buy the needed food.
- Buy an item (or two!) from our Amazon wish list or Chewy wish list and it’ll be delivered directly to us.
- Drop off pet food donations in the donation barrels at our main campus in Novato. We especially need dry and canned cat food, canned dog food, and flea medication (Advantage for cats, Advantix for dogs).
You can also drop off gift cards (we love Pet Food Express and Woodlands Pet Food!)

The Bay Area is home to some amazing wildlife, including mountain lions and bobcats so it’s important that we are informed about how to coexist with them and how to prevent human-wildlife conflict. In this seminar, Zara McDonald and Alys Granados from the Felidae Fund’s Bay Area Puma Project (bapp.org) will tell you about mountain lion ecology, our camera trap research, address some myths and misconceptions, and importantly, share tips about how we can facilitate coexistence with these wild cats in the Bay Area.
The seminar is free, but advance registration is requested. Please register before 3/1 at: info@bapp.org

Please join us for an educational presentation about coexisting with coyotes, highlighting the partnership between Project Coyote, Marin Humane, and Marin County Parks. These agencies came together and created the Marin Coyote Coalition to help coordinate the ways in which all of our local agencies respond to concerns about coyotes. One of the most important elements of this coalition has been educating residents about properly coexisting with coyotes.
Sponsored by Marin Humane, City of San Rafael, Project Coyote, University of California Cooperative Extension, and California Department of Fish and Wildlife.
