Stanly County Humane Society, Inc

Our Mission

The Stanly County Humane Society is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to saving animals without hope and eliminating the neglect, abandonment, and euthanization of our local companions. We work tirelessly every day to ensure every pet receives a second chance at a happy, healthy life.

Our History and Dedication

Since our establishment on June 20, 2005, we have been rooted in the heart of Stanly County, North Carolina. Our society is fueled by the hard work of our volunteers and the incredible devotion of our community, all striving together to make a lasting difference for animals in need.

How We Provide Care

We rescue animals from local animal control, private homes, and other partner organizations to bring them into our system. Before finding their forever families, every animal receives comprehensive care, including vaccinations, heartworm tests, medical treatments, spaying or neutering, and microchipping. We are also committed to public education and local efforts to reduce the feral cat population.

The Joy of Adoption

Finding the perfect match for you and your future pet is the most rewarding part of what we do. Our simple adoption application allows us to learn about your lifestyle, ensuring that every placement is suited to the individual needs of the animal. We offer a two-week trial period, giving you peace of mind that your new companion is the right fit for your home.

Connect With Us

We would love to help you find your new best friend. We invite you to view our adoptable pets at our weekly events or visit us online to see how you can support our mission. Whether you are interested in adoption, volunteering, or sponsorship, your support is truly what keeps us going.

9/29 - IT'S ZELDA!! We've been telling people for weeks and weeks how wonderful four-month-old Zelda is. Found as a lone little stray, she has become the epitome of affection. She loves kids and shows them the same adoration she does adults. She gets along great with other cats, is fun and playful, and needs a family that will allow her to lavish rubs and kisses on them. Please submit an adoption application at stanlycountyhumanesociety.org.

9/24 - FOR ADOPTION! They're kind of like the Doublemint twins, LOL. HAVEN and HAYMITCH (even the names are similar) got together to make biscuits. This should be put to music.
