Words From Happy Homes

We have got 5 pets from the humane society and all of them are wonderful! I believe the staff is very nice and patient. The process of adoption is easy, fast, and efficient. From what I see the animals seem to be well treated, happy, and clean!

Audrey Newcomb

Amazing place. Animals are very well cared for until they find their fur-ever home. The care takers take amazing care of the loves. I hope that everyone will consider going and adopting today!

Ammie Baker

Very friendly staff. They helped me adopt my beautiful cat Casper! Would definitely go back and adopt all the animals I wanted but that's obviously not realistic. The animals were in good shape and very clean. It seems they're treated well and with care.

Chris Daubert

I love what they do, they keep it nice and clean in there and are great to the animals, it's a great place to volunteer or find a fur baby.

Savannah Oleary

Amazing people that are friendly and care about the animals. They actually want the animals to go to a good home and treat each one as though it was their own. Best pets are rescue pets anyways!

Tenny Martin

This shelter is a great place to find a new furry or sometimes no so furry pet to add to your family. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. I've gotten 3 kittens from them over many years and every time I do its a great experience.
