The Humane Society of Beaufort Co.
The Humane Society of Beaufort County is a non-profit, all-volunteer organization dedicated to protecting the welfare of animals in our community. The main problem in our area is over-population with a large number of animals still not spayed or neutered.
Spay and Neuter Programs
SNIP (Spay and Neuter Incentive Program)
The SNIP program is an income-based program designed to help those receiving public assistance or low-income households in Beaufort County with the surgery cost of spaying and neutering personal pets. Applications are available through the Beaufort County Animal Shelter, Dept. of Social Services, and the Health Department. This program is not supported by taxpayers’ dollars, but you can offer support by purchasing Special interest plates issued by the NC DMV.
Friends of Animals

In most cases, this is the most cost effective option for pet owners (if you do not quality for SNIP). Purchase a certificate directly from their website which will be mailed to you.

Found a lost pet?
Get the pet scanned for a microchip.
If the pet is not wearing an ID tag, the best course of action is to take it to your local animal shelter, veterinarian, or police department to be scanned for a microchip. Although it may be tempting to keep a lost pet and try to find the owner yourself, it is absolutely essential that the animal be scanned for a microchip.
Take pets with no ID to an animal shelter.
If the animal has no ID tag or microchip, their best chance of being reunited with their owner is generally at an animal shelter. The shelter is the one obvious place where owners are likely to look for lost pets.
