Kaua‘i Humane Society is at risk of losing its no-kill shelter status which could result in a loss of funding to the nonprofit. With $10,000 in daily operating costs, the loss of any donations could ultimately impact various services the organization provides to the community to take care of animals as well as finding animals permanent homes.The facility has been a no-kill shelter for the past three to four years. However, with the dip in adoptions and rise in animal intakes, staff are seeing more injured and sick animals.
