All About the Macon County Humane Society

The Macon County Humane Society is a non-profit, 501(c)3 organization established in 2003 in Macon County, Alabama.  With our small group of active and highly dedicated members, we are making great strides in addressing the pet overpopulation problem and alleviating animal cruelty and suffering in our community.  We will do much more, but we need your help.

The Macon County Humane Society is a volunteer organization that cares for abandoned and neglected animals rescued in Macon County.  Without a shelter, we use a small foster care network of six volunteers to provide temporary care. 
The Macon County Humane Society needs many more foster homes to provide a safe environment for more animals.  If you love animals and would like to help, please consider joining the Macon County Humane Society as a foster caregiver.

We provide the supplies and veterinary care, all you have to supply is the love and attention these wonderful animals deserve.

The Macon County Humane Society is also seeking funding to establish a state-of-the art adoption and humane education center.  This is a much-needed facility that will have an immediate and positive impact on many animals and on the people who live and work in our community.

Our Vision for the Future

Each year in the United States, millions of companion animals enter animal shelters and sadly, never leave with the loving family it deserves. In fact, according to the Humane Society of the United States, in order to solve the animal overpopulation crisis, it is estimated that each man, woman and child would have to provide care for no less than seven animals. In Macon County, Alabama each year, one thousand animals are euthanized simply becasue they did not have a home.

The Macon County Humane Society envisions a community for animals where they are no longer homeless but sheltered, where animals are no longer starving but fed and well cared for, where no animal will ever be a victim of intentional abuse, and where unintentional neglect is resolved through education.

We invite you to join us in this effort
The Macon County Humane Society is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) no-kill Humane Society that is dedicated to using every tool and resource we can to save as many animals as possible.
