About Bideawee
Welcome to Bideawee. We're animal lovers, just like you.
Perhaps you already recognize us as one of the nation's leading animal welfare organizations; but there's so much more to what we do.
Bideawee is a community - of compassionate caregivers, volunteers, and friends - dedicated to helping people and animals build safe, loving, long-term relationships.
That's ambitious, we know. But we believe it's crucial for breaking the cycle of unwanted or abandoned pets in our world.
Won't you join our community? Explore our site - learn about the innovative adoption, veterinary care, education, behavioral training and other services we offer - and see how you can be a part of our growing list of programs and activities. We can't wait to meet you.
Our Organization
Founded in 1903 by Mrs. Flora D'Auby Jenkins Kibbe, Bideawee, which means "stay awhile" in Scottish, is one of the oldest humane organizations in the United States.
