Birthday Parties

Invite your friends to celebrate your special day at the Humane Society of the Tennessee Valley Community Room.
We promise to make it memorable for you and your guests!

Celebrate Your Birthday With Us!

Birthday parties are offered on Saturdays from 3-5 PM with a 30 minute window for set up and decorating. Parties are hosted by a staff member or a trained volunteer. Our Community Room space allows for a maximum of 10 children and 10 adults at each party. The cost for each celebration is $250 which goes directly to support our mission to save even more lives each year.

We make every effort to include playtime with either puppies or kittens but that always depends on what animals are in need when we transport them in from other shelters in surrounding counties. Our staff works very hard to ensure to provide animals at the time of your party. We also include a brief presentation about what we do followed by a shelter tour to see all the animals we have for adoption!

Guests are encouraged to bring food, drinks and a birthday cake! Alcoholic beverages are not permitted. Arriving 30 minutes early, our staff will help unload your food and drink and guide you to the party room for set up! We do ask that when possible, guests carpool because of the limited parking in our lot. The birthday family has one reserved spot! We have many birthday guests who ask for donations in lieu of gifts so be sure to ask for our Wish List. The staff at the Humane Society of the Tennessee Valley looks forward to making this a memorable day!! We all love a party! See you soon.

Register for a celebration today!

All parties are two hours in length. Thirty additional minutes will be allotted for decorating and room set-up. Parties will be hosted by a trained HSTV staff and/or volunteer.

Base celebration price is $250. This will include playtime with your choice of a puppy or kitten litter*, a brief “What is HSTV?” presentation with shelter tour.

A maximum of 10 children and 10 adults are permitted for each party.

HSTV offers Birthday Parties on Saturdays from 3-5 PM. Please schedule at least 30 days in advance. (Note: Due to summer camp schedule we are not available for birthday parties July 20th & 27th.) Due to limited parking, there will be one parking spot reserved for the Birthday Family. Birthday guests are encouraged to carpool and park off-site to ensure parking is available for all HSTV guests.

Birthday Guests are allowed to bring off-site food and drinks. Birthday Family must ensure that animal guests do not consume human food.

Alcoholic beverages are strictly prohibited.

*While we can not guarantee that puppies or kittens will be available at the time of your party, we will make every effort to accommodate your selection.

  • Date Format: MM slash DD slash YYYY
  • *Due to the Spay/Neuter efforts of HSTV’s no-kill mission, we cannot guarantee specific breeds, colors, genders, etc. HSTV will exhaust all resources to match all reasonable requests.
