NOCO Humane

Founded in 1969, NOCO Humane (formerly known as Larimer Humane Society) is an independent, multi-site non-profit organization that is not affiliated with any national organization. It is northern Colorado’s largest animal welfare organization, operating two shelters and providing shelter, medical attention and care to appropriately 12,000 lost, abandoned, injured, abused, ill, and orphaned animals each year.  

Through quality adoptions and lost & found services, NOCO Humane placed more than 5,200 companion animals into new homes and reunited 3,150 lost animals with their families in 2024. NOCO Humane also provides exceptional veterinary services to the animals in their care and is expanding services, specifically vaccinations and spay/neuter surgeries, to the public in the coming year.
