Recycling Programs

Help save puppies, kitties and the Planet all at the same time! HSSM uses several recycled products to better the lives of South Mississippi’s pets.

Cans for Critters

Donate your aluminum cans to HSSM! Your cans will be turned into cash to help HSSM care for the 8,000 pets we take in each year.

And yes, we accept beer cans too!

You can drop off your cans anytime by putting them near the ‘Aluminum Cans Only’ dumpster located outside HSSM’s Lost & Found Entrance. HSSM can only accept aluminum cans that are bagged. Nothing other than aluminum cans can be in the bag.

Shredded Copy Paper

We all know how much paper your office goes through. Why don’t you put some of that paper to use making puppies and kittens at HSSM feel more comfortable?

HSSM accepts strip-shred paper only. This paper is used in the puppy kennels and in the litter boxes of cats and kittens that have recently been spayed/neutered. Shredded paper is a MUST for HSSM’s daily operations.

Nothing like the thought of saving homeless dogs and cats to eliminate the guilt of killing trees!
