In October, Hawaiian Humane Society presented a community event featuring Phil Arkow, an internationally acclaimed expert on the link between animal cruelty and violence among people.

The link between animal cruelty and violence in the communityBringing the expertise of Phil Arkow to Honolulu united so many who care about animals from agencies that deal with community violence, such as law enforcement, to social services to schools.
For many years, I have been aware of how quickly animal abuse can lead to violence against people. The concept is simple: If a person hurts animals, they have a propensity to also hurt people. “The Link,” as it’s called by professionals, offers agencies an opportunity to recognize a deeper connection to each other and the importance of collaboration.
It’s with this knowledge that the Humane Society supported the passage of a law to ensure pets are included in temporary restraining orders and created a service that offers emergency pet foster care for domestic violence victims fleeing from their abusers. We also advocate that pets should be allowed to remain in safe houses with their caregivers – as sometimes that’s the only family they have left.
Cases in Hawaii have involved pets tortured and slaughtered at the hands of a family abuser intending to intimidate a victim. The Society has worked confidentially and intimately with victims to help protect their pets from family violence.
About 48 percent of battered women delayed leaving an abusive home due to fear for their pet’s safety. Seventy-one percent of pet-owning women in shelters said that their husbands
or boyfriends had killed, harmed or threatened a
pet. This is why we work with local shelters to help ensure the safe removal of pets from dangerous situations and provide emergency
pet foster care while victims are in transition.
The bond between people and their pets is very strong and the Society works to keep these bonds intact. Whether you homeless, in an unhealthy domestic situation or other life change, pets provide comfort and companionship. Asking someone who lives on the street to choose between moving indoors and requiring they give up their pet to do so, will result with that person instead choosing to stay on the street.
Our Humane Education program touched about 20,000 students in 2015 and is based on the belief that everyone has the capacity to be kind and that compassion can be cultivated through intentional practice. Our programs encourage students to extend the values of empathy and kindness, not just to animals, but to people as well.
Phil’s work inspires all of us to create a more compassionate and connected community. I hope that the next time someone finds the courage to report abuse about the animal next door, they recognize that they also may be helping a family in crisis.

Humane Society polls public about pet ownership
Power of Pet OwnersOahu pet owners are an economic power house. Based on the national average* spent on a cat or dog that includes food, veterinary care, boarding and other expenses, Oahu owners contribute $395,070,750 to Hawaii’s economy annually.
*2015-16 American Pet Product Association Survey
and other community agencies on the link between the mistreatment of animals and human violence. “The fact is people who are cruel to animals, they’re usually cruel to other people,” said Keith Kaneshiro, prosecuting attorney for the City and County of Honolulu. “The prosecutors need to understand why we work on these types of cases, why animals are so important. They’re victims, just like anybody else. Our office tries to protect those who can’t protect themselves.” “Renewed interest in how animal abuse is often linked to human violence has led to amazing progress in the
humane movement over the past 25 years,” said Arkow. “For example in the early 1990s, only five states had any animal cruelty crimes that were considered felonies. Today, all 50
states have felony level animal cruelty laws.”
This renewed focus on the link has great promise for even more improvements in animal welfare in
the future. By working collaboratively with
counterparts in domestic violence, child protection and elder abuse, Hawaiian Humane Society will build a better future for the people and animals of Oahu and protect the most vulnerable members of community.
Ever wonder how many pets live on Oahu? The Hawaiian Humane Society commissioned a survey conducted by Ward Research in 2015 and the results are in. About 55 percent of Oahu homes include a pet, with more dog owners (43 percent) than cat owners (16 percent). That’s an estimated 240,750 dogs and 99,536 cats in residence.
More dogs live in urban Honolulu than any other region, with Windward Oahu estimated to have the second highest number of canines at home. East Honolulu lays claim to having the greatest number of cats, with nearly 22,000 felines in homes.
Forty-four percent of owners acquired their
dog from friends and family and 45 percent of cat owners simply welcomed a stray in to their home. Only about 17 percent of those with a cat or dog adopted one from the Hawaiian Humane Society. Even fewer came from breeders (12 percent for dogs) and pet stores (9 percent for dogs). Cat owners in central Oahu were most likely to adopt their most recent pet from the Humane Society.
Whether it’s the stray cat that showed up at the back door or a family member’s accidental litter of puppies that need a home, an overabundance of animals in our community is a serious issue facing Oahu.
More than 23,000 animals arrived to the Humane Society in need last year.
Eighty-seven percent of cat owners report neutering their pets, as compared to 66% of dog owners. However, many free roaming cats in the community remain unsterilized. Pet sterilization can reduce pet overpopulation and help is needed by all to urge friends and families to get more pets fixed.

Many different kinds of people serve as animal foster care providers. From families with young children who want to teach responsibility and care to retirees looking for temporary companions, fostering appeals to a wide variety of people. Yet they all have one thing in common: a desire to make even more animals available for adoption at the Hawaiian Humane Society.
Veteran FBI agent Marianne Cunningham and her husband Dave, a Hawaii Pacific University chemistry professor, have found a nighttime niche in fostering. Marianne protects people by day and animals by night while Dave teaches college students by day and socializes animals after hours.
“Fostering animals just works so perfectly for the kind of people we are,” said Dave Cunningham. “Helping is what we do and getting these little animals off to a good start so they can find permanent families is as rewarding as our careers.”
Since January 2011, they have fostered about 60 animals, including cats, kittens, dogs,
puppies, guinea pigs and rabbits to prepare them for adoption.
Hawaiian Humane Society’s foster care program helps to save
thousands of orphaned animals, as well as
owned animals in which families are in crises including pets of domestic violence
victims. Fostering is also available for deployed military.
Nearly 150 animals are in foster care at any given time so more providers are always needed. This program can also help students fulfill service learning hours with their families in their own home. To join the Society’s foster program, call 356-2200.

People and pets gathered at Magic Island Beach Park for the 25th anniversary of Hawaiian Humane Society’s PetWalk – its annual charity walk. Supporters and their pets walked around the park in celebration of raising $280,000 for the Hawaiian Humane Society.
More than a dozen sponsors stepped up to support the Society’s event, including petco foundation, which has been PetWalk’s presenting sponsor for the past four years. Media sponsors Hawaii News Now and Summit Media teamed up to donate nearly $100,000 in air time and publicity to help raise awareness for the charity walk and the Society’s cause.
“Our charity walk is about stepping out for a cause that’s dear to so many of us who believe that together we can end cruelty and abuse,” said Jacque Vaughn, the Society’s community relations director. “PetWalk is our most powerful rally of animal lovers who are advocates, friends and donors – all in one.”

Harold Han has joined the Hawaiian Humane Society as its manager of field services, responsible for rescues, investigations and more. A former officer with Honolulu Police Department, he brings more than 25 years of law enforcement and customer service experience.
The field services team responds to reports of cruelty, aggressive dogs and educates and enforces a wide variety of animal laws.
“Our goal is to be there when people and animals need
us most,” said Han. “Our responsibility as HPD’s partner in animal law enforcement is one we take
seriously and perform with great pride. There’s also a
tremendous need for education and teaching pet owners how to be more
responsible. Balancing education and enforcement and protecting and serving
our community are our highest priorities.”

When Kamaaina Kids, an early-education nonprofit, set up six surveillance cameras at Heeia State Park, which they lease from the state and manage, the staff felt certain that the ever-expanding cat population in the park was due to abandonment. They were right.
Captured on tape, a Kaneohe man was caught dumping four kittens in the park. His license plate was caught on the video.
“Numerous signs in the park state that it is both cruel and illegal to abandon an animal,” says Andy Carre, Heeia State Park manager. “We’re glad to play a role in ensuring justice was served.”
While a crime, animal abandonment is difficult to prove and this is the first case in the Humane Society’s recollection in which this law has protected animals. Hawaii’s desertion law states that it’s “unlawful for the owner of any animal, or any person in possession of an animal that belongs to another to leave the animal without the intention of returning.”
In this case, the video evidence was irrefutable. The defendant pled no contest and was fined $300. “We hope this case deters others from dumping cats,” says Prosecuting Attorney Keith Kaneshiro. “Animal abandonment is a crime and we will continue to take all crimes against animals very seriously.”
Kamaaina Kids found loving homes for all four kittens.
The Humane Society is open 24-7 to accept animals. Anyone who witnesses animal abandonment can report it to the Hawaiian Humane Society at 356-2250 or the Honolulu Police Department.

John Dean joins Society Board of DirectorsHawaiian Humane Society welcomes John Dean to its Board of Directors. Dean is Executive Chair of Central Pacific Financial Corp. and Central Pacific Bank.
“Pets were part of my childhood and have played an important part of my life since then. In fact, my youngest daughter is a veterinarian,” said John Dean. “I
have witnessed firsthand the importance of the
human-animal bond and I am looking forward to being a part of an organization that has been helping
our local communities for more than a century.”
Dean’s passion for helping extends to all corners of the community. Dean has been a longtime supporter of the Humane
Society. He is personally a donor and he has also volunteered to co-chair Tuxes & Tails 2016 gala, along with the bank’s canine mascot, Alex. This year’s theme is ‘Alex in Wonderland.’
“Tuxes and Tails is a truly unique and special event that I look forward to attending each year,” added Dean. “The live auction is always fun, but what I enjoy most is meeting the animals that attend. This year, I’m especially excited because we’ll have our Alex there.”

Leaving a legacy of caring for the less fortunateMaking a planned gift to the Hawaiian Humane Society is an excellent way to ensure that love and compassion for animals continues to benefit homeless pets for many years to come. With your gift, the Humane Society is able
to care for animals and support its 30 programs and services. Here are a few ways to make a planned gift:
• Will or Estate Plan Contribution –A bequest through a will or estate plan leaves a legacy of caring for the animals.
• IRA & Retirement Plan Contribution – Designate the Humane Society to receive all or
a portion of the account. This allows supporters to give more than they ever thought possible, while leaving heirs other assets that may be taxed at lower rates.
• Life Insurance Policy – Gifts of a life insurance policy or proceeds of a policy that are no longer needed can also be an excellent way to give. You may be able to use life insurance to “replace” assets you donate to charity, allowing you to provide for loved ones and their charitable interests.
• Donations in Honor of – For the person who has everything, a donation in honor of a loved one can be a fitting gift this holiday season. Send an eCard to notify an honoree of the contribution.
Pets are family, too. This is a fact not to be forgotten as the community tries to tackle Oahu’s burgeoning homeless population. At 66 percent, Hawaii lays claim to the second highest rate of unsheltered homeless in the nation according to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The National Coalition for the Homeless estimates that between 5 to 10 percent of America’s 3.5 million homeless have a dog or a cat. From its extensive experience in working with those living on the streets and beaches, the Hawaiian Humane Society estimates that at least 10 percent of Oahu’s homeless have a pet. Catholic Charities recently held training led by the Humane Society on responsible pet ownership in order to teach their clients the necessary care of their animals. The Housing First model used by Catholic Charities is designed to help people move into or maintain affordable permanent housing and attain self-sufficiency. Pets often provide stability to a homeless person in an otherwise unpredictable life and can aide recovery to allow clients to become a productive member of society. “Pets provide comfort, loyalty, and companionship,” says Jerry Rauckhorst, President and CEO of Catholic Charities of Hawaii. “The homeless find normalcy by providing food and water for their pets. In some cases, they keep them rooted in reality.” Accordingly, it’s no surprise that California, Pennsylvania, Florida and other states have established shelters that aim to keep people and pets together – not separated. The national
nonprofit Pets of the Homeless features a list of about 35 shelters nationwide that have provisions to accommodate homeless with pets. The Hawaiian Humane Society is working with the Institute for Human Services and the City & County of Honolulu to create a pet-friendly transitional shelter on Sand Island. The Society has provided guidance on how to successfully manage pets in a shelter environment and has urged providers and policy makers to integrate provisions for pets into all plans for the homeless. The Society will continue to work together as a community to move more pets into housing. “Pet-friendly shelters are fairly scattered throughout the nation,” said Mary Steiner, policy advocate for the Hawaiian Humane Society. “We are working with Mayor Caldwell and IHS to ensure that pet-friendly homeless shelters are as successful as possible here on Oahu so we can continue to advocate for this model.”In September and October 2015, the
Society’s rescue and investigations team visited Kakaako’s homeless encampment and focused on those with pets. Collars, leashes and towels were provided as well as food from the Society’s pet food bank. Sterilization and pet identification options were offered to pet owners.
The Hawaiian Humane Society’s pet food bank was established in 2010 to help pet owners in need. Nearly 5,000 animals benefited from the program this year. Many were homeless. The Hawaiian Humane Society staff is frequently asked: “Why are homeless people allowed to have pets? Can’t you just take their animals away from them?” For those who have walked the beaches and investigated complaints, the answer is simple: “Anyone can be a great pet owner.” The truth is that anyone can be homeless. It has become increasingly apparent that one missed paycheck, a medical diagnosis or an abusive partner, can lead to anyone becoming homeless overnight.

Bank of Hawaii Foundation has committed $100,000 to the Hawaiian Humane Society’s capital campaign to redevelop the Moiliili campus and open a second center for animals in West Oahu. For many years, Bank of Hawaii has strengthened Hawaii’s communities through its charitable giving.
“We are so grateful that Bank of Hawaii is making an investment in the future of our community by supporting a gathering place where people can come together to do great things for animals and people,” says Hawaiian Humane Society’s President & CEO Pamela Burns.
The project to improve the health and welfare of animals includes a new veterinary clinic, admissions center and adoption pavilions for cats and dogs. The project design is the culmination of input from animal sheltering and design experts from across the nation and was
guided by what animals see, smell and feel in order to reduce stress, encourage more natural behaviors and ultimately result in more positive outcomes. The goal is to create comfortable environments that address an animal’s behavioral, psychological and socialization needs.
