As a community, we
must provide a healthy environment and more space for
abandoned, neglected and abused pets, while they wait for
homes. A highly visible, easily accessible facility will
naturally increase adoption numbers. We must boost
awareness of the positive impact spay and neuter programs have
on pet overpopulation problems, thus further reducing the
tragic loss of healthy, adoptable
animals.
For this to
happen,
more shelter space is vital.
A 20,000 sq. ft. shelter project is
proposed that will include:
additional cat quarters
indoor and outdoor puppy and dog
kennels
an education and meeting
room
quarantine areas
a veterinary clinic for
spaying/neutering
get acquainted rooms
animal control receiving
area
visibility and
accessibility
The shelter is being financed by
the society's "Give Them a Chance" campaign. It is a facility
for the public and cannot be done without the support of
caring community members like you.
The Animal Rescue Site is giving a
total of $100,000 to Petfinder shelters and rescue
groups.

OUR MISSION The mission of the Joplin Humane
Society is to promote the humane care and protection of all
animals, especially those abandoned, neglected and abused; and to
prevent cruelty and suffering of all animals.
The Joplin Humane Society is
committed to speaking for animals - a life that has no voice, and
to tell the truth, as we try to change the truth we have to
tell.
