Tool, TX (June 07, 2024) – Humane Society of Cedar Creek Lake received a $15,000 grant investment from national nonprofit Petco Love in support of their lifesaving work for animals in Henderson and Kaufman County, Texas.

Petco Love is a national nonprofit leading change for pets by harnessing the power of love to make communities and pet families closer, stronger, and healthier. Since its founding in 1999, Petco Love has invested nearly $400 million in adoption and other lifesaving efforts. And Petco Love helps find loving homes for pets in partnership with Petco and more than 4,000 organizations — like ours — across North America, with 6.8 million pets adopted and counting. 

“Our investment in the Humane Society of Cedar Creek Lake is part of more than $15M in investments recently announced by Petco Love to power local organizations across the country as part of our commitment to create a future in which no pet is unnecessarily euthanized,” said Susanne Kogut, president of Petco Love. “Our local investments are only part of our strategy to empower animal lovers to drive lifesaving change right alongside us. We launched Petco Love Lost, a national lost and found database that uses patented image-recognition technology to simplify the search for lost pets.”

“Petco Love’s generous lifesaving investment will support medical, labor costs, transports, and general care for our pets. Our medical costs continue to rise every year, so we are incredibly grateful to Petco Love for supporting our shelter with this lifesaving investment,” said Jennifer Miller, Director of the Humane Society of Cedar Creek Lake.
