A no-kill cat shelter serving the South Shore & Boston
Temporarily Closed
for renovations!
781-925-3121
We would like to share some exciting news!
After operating in Hull for 16 years, HSAR was able to purchase our building in 2015. Although our facility has served us well through the last 8 years, the time has come to make some necessary changes/renovations which will make our space more suitable for our important work in the community, and allow us to raise our standards with best medical practices in mind.
To complete this project in full, we need your help! Please consider contributing to our cause by making a contribution toward the renovations. You can send a donation to us via PayPal by clicking the button below and typing Renovation into the note field. A check can be sent via mail to: HSAR at P.O. Box 787, Hull, MA 02045, please write Renovation in memo field.
We will be closed to visitors for 3-4 weeks and hope to reopen by late October. We do have some beautiful cats in foster homes which you can find by clicking on adoptable cats in the menu bar above.
​
We can't wait to share our new space with you and to continue our mission of providing temporary shelter for homeless cats and kittens in Hull and surrounding communities, until they can be placed into loving forever homes.
