Please Support Prairie’s Edge Humane Society through your Work Place Giving Program!
Sep 2nd
| Does your employer support a workplace giving campaign? When you take advantage of payroll deductions to support Prairie’s Edge Humane Society, your employer’s payroll department takes care of everything–you don’t even need a stamp!
Small donations to PEHS, taken out of each paycheck, can add up to a significant gift over a year’s time. And if your company offers matching funds, we can receive a gift from your employer as well. Did you know that while animal related charities cannot be United Way agencies, you can still donate to us through the United Way? You can make your donation to PEHS through the United Way by using the payroll deduction option called “donor choice“. Use the ”other” line, indicate “donor choice”, and write our name and address: Rice County Humane Society dba Prairie’s Edge Humane Society 1201 Cannon Circle Faribault, MN 55021 Please let us know if you choose to contribute through payroll deductions, so we can thank you and recognize your gift. Thank you for supporting Prairie’s Edge Humane Society and our mission of promoting the value of animals through care and education.

Watch the PEHS Kitty Kam!
Aug 10th
You are watching a live feed of adoptable animals at Prairie’s Edge Humane Society. Thanks to KYMN Radio in Northfield we have been able to set up a camera to air the antics of our adoptable animals.
We will be changing the camera location often to capture the lives of our shelter animals as they wait for their adopters to come find them. Remember, all the animals you see are available for adoption at our shelter.
Enjoy the show!
We also post short videos of some of our adoptable animals on You Tube-Click here!
Special Thank Yous…
Aug 6th
A small humane society like PEHS depends on the efforts of a great many people-people who love animals and want what’s best for them; people who want to bring their talents and skills to the table to help us help animals. We’d like to recognize a handful of these special people, and let everyone know just how much their efforts mean!

2010 Feline Companion Program – Foster Pets for Seniors
May 25th
Every year during “kitten season”, adult cats in animal shelters are overlooked by potential adopters. Once the kittens have all been adopted we know adult cat adoptions will increase, but spending months on end in a shelter is not good for any animal! To get these lovely kitties into a home environment while they await their chance at adoption, PEHS created the Feline Companion Program. From May to October each year, adoptable adult cats can live in a foster home with a senior citizen who may otherwise not be able to have a cat.
PEHS’s Feline Companion Program is designed to give seniors who cannot undertake full time pet ownership the opportunity to temporarily enjoy the company of an adult cat.
The program also gives the adult cat a break from living in our shelter Read more »
