Animal Shelters in Wausau, WI
Wausau has two listed animal shelters and rescue organizations, in Marathon County. The mix is fairly even between rescue organizations and humane societies. Edgar and Merrill, both within about 19 miles, have listings of their own. A handful of places, and behind each of them a dog or cat hoping this is the week.
Wausau has two listed at the moment, and they are shown above with the ones that have photos first.
A mix of both, and the difference is worth knowing before you set out. A rescue usually places animals from a network of foster homes rather than from premises you can walk into, so you generally arrange a meeting first. A shelter or humane society more often has a facility you can visit during opening hours.
The Wausau listings all fall in Marathon County, which is worth knowing if you are checking whether a shelter takes animals from your area.
If nothing here suits, Edgar, Merrill and Antigo all have listings within about 24 miles. Each one links through from the sidebar.
Some listings here carry a phone number, and most link to the organization's own website. Calling ahead is worth it — opening hours change, and rescues often work by appointment rather than keeping a building open.
