Bring a smile to a Senior's face and brighten their day by allowing them to touch and love a dong or cat from the League City Animal Shelter. People who own pets benefit from the love and companionship but seniors in a nursing home or memory care unit miss out on this benefit.
Once a month we take friendly dogs and cats to Autumn Leaves in Clear Lake City. We would like to expand this program into more facilities. All we need is people who care.
Volunteers meet at the shelter to transport friendly dogs and cats to visit with the residents. Currently, we visit Autumn Leaves in Clear Lake every fourth Tuesday of the month at 9:15 am.
Pets greatly improve the health of seniors by reducing stress, lowering blood pressure, increase social interaction and physical activity.
Help us help our community and those who cant own pets but benefit mentally and physically from the companionship.

Mission Statement
Friends of League City Animal Shelter aka League City Pets Alive is a 501(c)3 nonprofit. Our purpose is to stop the senseless killing of companion animals and maintain the "NO KILL" status of League City. We acquire donations or raise funds for the purchase of services and supplies not covered by the City budget. Funds are used for mostly for veterinary care, medical supplies, puppy and kitten food, and related animal supplies.
Description
In 2013 we set a goal to become NO KILL. The community achieved that goal completely in 2017. A shelter is considered "no kill" at 90% live release rate. We didn't stop there. The volunteers and staff work tirelessly to maintain over 95% live release. Committing to be "no kill" means providing treatment for animals that most shelters would kill rather than spend funds to treat. Our community has a generous giving spirit and we are blessed with donations that allow many animals to be saved. We have cats available for adoption seven days a week at SIX area pet supply stores. The Kitty Condo Krewe increased the live release of cats significantly. The Cat Condo program requires 70 volunteer shifts per week.
"We are delighted to have moved into our new shelter in 2020. The new shelter gives us more space for animals and the ability to engage the community at the shelter and develop more life saving programs.
Come join us in saving lives.
