Come check out our “Adopt-A-Kennel” program where our local individuals and businesses can show the community their support for our area’s homeless animals. This month’s (OCTOBER) Adopt-A-Kennel is in memory of Matthew Hoffman. Matt, an amazing young man in every sense of the word, was an animal lover who spent his life trying to rescue any animal in need. 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. Call us for more information or visit our website www.mccookhumanesociety.com for more information and to fill out a form online. You can also sponsor an adoption for one of our available pets if you’d like to help out in that way.
We’re really looking foward to this month’s edition of our “NAIL DAY”, tomorrow, Saturday, November 8th from 1pm until 2pm. Our professional Nail Trimmer will be Amy Strauch of Four Winds Animal Clinic. Trims are $6 (which includes sales tax), or in lieu of that you may bring something in off our Shelter wish list (found on our facebook page). Must bring proof of rabies vaccination, and remain on leash (no retractable leashes).

Did you know… As the weather stays cold, we humans tend to stay inside where it’s warm. Many of us are lucky enough to enjoy winter comforts like heating, fireplaces, blankets, and warm places to sleep. But for small animals that live outside, such as cats and rodents, finding a cozy place to sleep isn’t as easy. This is why drivers often find cats in car engines looking for a warm place to hide from frigid temperatures. Of course, this behavior can be deadly for the animal. Luckily, there are some things you can do before driving off to check that no critters are hiding under your hood. Some examples are; banging on the hood of your car, honking your horn, opening and closing your hood, and covering your car. These things may help save a small animal’s life.
