About Calhoun County Humane Society

The Calhoun County Humane Society is a Texas
Non-Profit Corporation. In January of 2006 we received our 501(c)3 tax exempt status. We organized and established this all-volunteer group to enable more adoptions of dogs and cats from our local animal shelter through our intervention. Many animals are euthanized each year. Insome cases this is unavoidable due to their illness or behavioral problems. But many wonderful pets are abandoned and end up at the shelter, pets that have so much to offer and that have no chance without a great deal of effort by caring humans. Working with animal control, we make available to the public dogs and cats that will be
wonderful companion animals and that have been tested, vaccinated and spayed/neutered. The adoption fee for cats is $75; the adoption fee for dogs is $85. All testing, vaccinating and spaying or neutering is included in this cost - a bargain and a good deed, all in one.!

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
