The Scott County Humane Society needs your help ASAP.

According to WHBF, the Scott County Humane Society is actually over capacity. The shelter says that they have 311 cats and 86 dogs, as well as 4 small animals, which are 2 bunnies and 2 guinea pigs.

The capacity issue is forcing the shelter to set up pop-up wire crates for some of the animals.

The Humane Society is waiving adoption fees on adult animals and will host "Bark Into The New Year" in January, which will feature $23 adoption fees.

If adopting a pet isn't in your wheelhouse right now, you can still help out the shelter. Donate things like pet food, blankets, or you can foster a pet until it's ready to be adopted.

That's my cat Chanel that I adopted from the Humane Society of Scott County back in April. She's pretty social and luckily gets along really well with my other kitty. All 3 of my pets were shelter animals when I got them and all of them are just so sweet and such great company to me.

Having pets is something you would need to budget for but the love they can give is so worth it. Start 2023 with a new feline or canine in your abode! You can get more details on the Humane Society of Scott County and the latest on adoption specials going on over on their Facebook page.
