Birthday Parties

Celebrate your birthday with a different kind of party animal!

The Animal Humane Society is a natural location for your party animal’s next swingin’ birthday bash. It’s two hours of fun and learning that feels more like fun. Animal Humane Society is a unique destination that brings out the big “happy” in “happy birthday.”

AHS Birthday Parties include a shelter tour, educational activities, animal-themed games and crafts, and a visit from a special animal guest. Participants may also make a toy or other item to donate to a shelter animal. Parents provide food, cake or treats (we’ll provide the giddy birthday experience).
