Sappy love stories? Absolutely!
Want to watch Hallmark all weekend? He's your guy!

And ladies…he'll NEVER fight you for the remote!

Tabby and Dovey have a Halloween reminder: keep your furry friends secure tomorrow night so the goblins don’t spook them! 🐾

With costumes, unfamiliar noises and doors opening for trick-or-treaters, pets can easily get frightened and slip outside. Give them a quiet, secure spot indoors, make sure their ID is current, and keep candy out of reach!

These sweet girls are spending time with the Madisonville North Hopkins FFA, where students in the animal science class are learning how to care for animals. We appreciate the care and attention they’re giving Tabby and Dovey! ❤

Both girls are available for adoption, already spayed and fully vetted. Could one of these sweet faces be your new best friend?

Call the shelter at 270-245-2095 to schedule a meet and greet!

Please share to help Tabby and Dovey find homes of their own.

TWO SWEET BOYS. MONTHS IN A SHELTER. STILL WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO CHOOSE THEM!

Friends, you've been AMAZING at sharing our posts and helping our animals find homes. Now we need your help with Ceasar and Midnight!

CEASAR is a handsome 1-year-old retriever mix who has been waiting since AUGUST! This boy is the total package! He LOVES kids, gets along great with other dogs, walks well on a leash, is food motivated, and is a complete love bug! He was even a favorite when Central's High Voltage Dance Team visited!

MIDNIGHT has been waiting since SEPTEMBER! He's a sweet, dog-friendly boy who just needs a little work on his leash skills. He has so much love to give!

These boys have spent MONTHS watching other dogs leave with their new families. When will it be their turn?

PLEASE SHARE! You've helped us find homes for other long-term residents. Let's do it again!

Adoption fees: $100 each (includes neuter, microchip, and initial vaccines).

ALL THREE OF THESE GIRLS HAVE BEEN ADOPTED!!

TWO SWEET SISTERS LOOKING FOR THEIR PURRFECT HOME!

Looking for a sweet little kitten to steal your heart? Well, we have TWO little ladies who are ready to do just that!

Meet Piper and Libby, two adorable 3-month-old gray tabby sisters who came to us as tiny strays. These sweet girls have been growing up at the shelter, and we think it's time they traded their kennel for a cozy couch and a family of their own!

Their adorable orange sister has already found her purrfect home, but Piper and Libby are still waiting for someone to fall in love with them.

And trust us, there's plenty to love!

Kittens need room to play, explore, snuggle, and just be kittens. Growing up in a loud, busy shelter isn't ideal for these little ones, and we would love nothing more than to see them enjoying life in a loving home.

Adoption fees are just $65 per kitten, which includes their spay, microchip, and vaccinations.

Whether you're looking for one furry friend or thinking about bringing home TWO sisters who already know and love each other, Piper and Libby would love to meet you!

Stop by the Hopkins County Humane Society at 319 Dulin Street in Madisonville.

Monday–Saturday | 9:30 AM–4:30 PM

Please SHARE these sweet faces! Their orange sister has already found her happy ending, and now it's Piper and Libby's turn!

Together... we can turn two tiny strays into two very loved family members!

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY.

The mission of the Hopkins County Humane Society goes beyond finding safe, loving homes for homeless animals. We also strive to help families in our community keep the pets they already love.

Winter is fast approaching, and we know the requests for assistance will increase. We need our community's help to prepare.

Our temporary shelter is just 1/4 the size of our former Laffoon Trail facility, making it even more difficult to house the animals coming into our care. We are often at capacity, with very limited options for taking in additional animals.

When donations allow, we offer a pet food pantry to help families who are struggling to feed their pets. However, our first responsibility is to provide for the animals currently in our care. Right now, our food supply is barely only enough to meet those needs, leaving us unable to offer assistance to others.

So, how can our community help us help others?

PET FOOD: We need dry kibble and canned food for dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens. An abundance of food would allow us to once again assist families who need a little help keeping their pets fed and at home.

DOG HOUSES: As temperatures begin to drop, we know there will be animals in our community needing adequate shelter from the cold. We would love to have dog houses available to help those families who need them.

When our shelter is at capacity, we work to help animals remain safe and secure where they are whenever possible. Sometimes that means helping provide a proper outdoor shelter with clean, dry straw (never hay) for insulation. Some dogs genuinely prefer spending time outdoors, but every animal deserves appropriate protection from the elements.

This is not a time for judgment. It is a time for preparation, compassion, and working together.

Our goal is to help families keep their pets safe and cared for while allowing our limited shelter space to remain available for animals that are lost, abandoned, or truly have nowhere else to go.

Every bag of food, every can, and every dog house donated can make a difference. Sometimes a little assistance is all it takes to keep a pet with the family that loves them.

Donations can be dropped off at our temporary shelter:

Monday–Saturday, 9:30 AM–4:30 PM

Together… we can help keep Hopkins County pets safe, warm, fed, and with the families who love them.

RESCUE RUSTY! This handsome face deserves a home!

Seriously, how does a boy this handsome end up at the shelter with no one looking for him?

Meet Rusty! This beautiful Beagle mix boy was found wandering in the Nebo area. No microchip, and sadly, no one has come forward to claim him.

We estimate Rusty to be around 5 years old, and let us tell you, this boy is a sweetheart! He's gentle, loves kids, knows some basic commands, and does well walking on a leash. He's also food motivated, which makes working with him and continuing his training a little easier!

And can we talk about that gorgeous coloring? Rusty has the most beautiful blue-ticked coat and those classic Beagle ears that are pretty hard to resist!

Now, if you know Beagles, you know they come with a built-in GPS system called their NOSE! And Rusty's works just fine! Once he catches an interesting scent, his nose may convince him to go exploring, so a secure yard and a watchful owner will be important.

Rusty is past those wild puppy days but still has plenty of life, love, and adventures ahead of him. What he needs now is someone who will give him the security and love of a forever home.

His adoption fee is $100, which covers his neuter, microchip, and vaccinations.

You can complete an adoption application at www.hopkinscountyhumanesociety.com or stop by the shelter and meet this handsome boy in person!

WHERE ARE OUR BEAGLE LOVERS?

We know you're out there! If you have a soft spot for those floppy ears, soulful eyes, and hound-dog personalities, Rusty just might be your guy!

Please SHARE this post and TAG your Beagle-loving friends. Somewhere out there is the person Rusty has been waiting for.

Together... we can find Rusty the home he deserves!

WE HAVE MORE GREAT NEWS TO SHARE... PICKLES HAS LEFT THE BUILDING!

And just look who he gets to call his family!

Our sweet boy Pickles has officially found his forever home, and we couldn't be happier for him! He was SO excited to be heading home with these three lovely girls and his amazing new family!

And it sounds like Pickles is already settling into his new life just fine! His new mom shared that after an afternoon of playing fetch, he was stretched out in his kennel with a brand-new blanket, enjoying some much-deserved peace and quiet.

From a shelter kennel to a home filled with love. That's what it's all about!

To Pickles' new family, THANK YOU for choosing adoption, for opening your hearts and home, and for giving this sweet boy the opportunity to be part of your family. We hope you have many wonderful years of love, laughter, and games of fetch together!

But friends, Pickles isn't the only one who has been waiting.

We still have so many wonderful dogs who have spent MONTHS at our shelter, watching other dogs leave with their new families. They are just as deserving of a soft bed, a loving family, and the chance to experience everything Pickles is experiencing today.

Somewhere in our shelter, your new best friend may be patiently waiting for YOU!

Please stop by, spend some time with our dogs, and see which one steals your heart. You just might change a life, including your own!

And please keep SHARING our adoptable animals. Every share helps us reach another potential family, and every adoption gives us another reason to celebrate!

PRINCESS WANTS TO SAY THANK YOU!

Because of YOU, Princess found her forever home TODAY!

Every share, every comment, and every person who helped spread her story made a difference. Princess is finally getting the happy ending she deserves!

But before she heads off to enjoy her new life, Princess has one little favor to ask…

Please don't forget my friends!

Go share their pictures, watch their videos, and help them find their forever families, too! They are all waiting for that magical moment when someone walks through the shelter doors and says, "You're going home!"

Princess knows just how wonderful that feeling is, and she wants every one of her shelter friends to experience it!

Thank you for helping us change lives, one share and one adoption at a time.

Together… we can make a difference!

STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND TAKE A LOOK AT THIS HANDSOME BOY! 🐾

Meet Cash! This handsome guy is full of personality, loves attention, and is always ready for some snuggles!

Cash is about a year old, and we believe he's a beautiful mix of Beagle and Hound. And can we just talk about his coloring? He is absolutely stunning!

Cash loves kids and has not shown aggression toward cats. He's a sweet boy with lots of love to give, but he also has that classic hound nose! That means a secure yard will be important because once that nose catches a scent, he's going to want to investigate!

He's still learning to walk on a leash and will need someone willing to continue his training. He's young, eager to learn, and just needs someone to give him the time and patience to become the best companion he can be.

Cash's adoption fee is $100, which includes his neuter, microchip, and vaccinations.

Come meet Cash! Pictures are great, but this boy's personality is even better in person!
