Welcome to McCook Humane Society!
Our organization is committed to keeping pets safe, happy and healthy while they wait to be placed in a forever home. Since 1983 the McCook Humane Society has provided a temporary home for puppies and kittens, as well as adult dogs, cats and any temporarily homeless pet. We are dedicated to finding permanent, loving homes for abused, neglected, and abandoned animals in Southwest Nebraska and Northwest Kansas, while also continuing in our mission of education in Responsible Pet Ownership. We are classified as a No Kill Shelter and strive to be as low kill as possible and give them every opportunity to find forever homes.
If you are ready to open your heart and home to a pet, we urge you to visit the McCook Humane Society.
Visitors and volunteers are always welcome.
Adopt-a-Kennel Program
Our Adopt-a-Kennel Program is a great way for businesses and individuals to show the community their support for our area’s homeless animals.
The Adopt a Kennel Program is a perfect idea for a classroom project and provides the children with a class mascot!
Each kennel will have a brightly displayed sign with the adopter’s name proudly displayed on the kennel! You can participate by adopting a cat or dog kennel by donating the following amounts…
1 month $25.00
6 months $125.00
1 year $250.00
The money received from the kennel adoptions will go to supplies and food for the dogs and cats.

This month’s (SEPTEMBER) Adopt-A-Kennel is in memory of Wayne Cook, loved and missed by so many. A very special thanks to all of our sponsors for their continuing support. It’s the perfect way to honor someone or memorialize them by adopting a kennel in their name.

Spay/Neuter Fees waived... A wonderfully generous anonymous donor has decided that it was time to let the dog's at the shelter get help in finding homes also. This friend of the shelter started a spay/neuter reimbursement fund for them because, as she said, "they need help finding permanent loving homes also". So, spay/neuter fees will be waived on all dogs who have been available for adoption for over 30 days, until this fund is depleted. At this time the spay/neuter reimbursement fees are still being waived for the felines. We will continue to waive the spay/neuter fees until the Linda Hedges/Mary Ellinger Memorial fund is depleted. We have truly seen a dramatic increase in the feline adoptions since we've been able to waive the spay/neuter fees for them, let's see if it helps with their barking friends.
