TIGGER

The Humane Society of Polk County, Inc was started in 1981 and after years of saving from donations, bingo and the selling of pull-tabs, there was enough money to start the construction of a shelter building. The shelter opened up in December 1993. Thru the years the shelter survived on the donations, bingo and the selling of pull-tabs. In 2004, bingo and the selling of pull-tabs came to an end. The shelter building closed it's door in 2006. In June 2008 after almost 2 years of struggling the shelter doors were re-opened. After being open for over a year now we are still being staffed by volunteer wokers. We are always in need of volunteers during the shelter hours but more so in the morings.

Our purpose is to provide shelter and care for the abused, neglected, unwanted, abandoned and stray animals in the Polk County area. Our goal is to find new loving, caring homes for them. We are a no-kill shelter. All animals old enough are spayed/neutered before adoption.

Our Thirft Store above the shelter has been opened for over one year now. It has brought in great funds for the shelter downstairs. Help us bring in more for the shelter by coming in and checking out the great deals. There is everything from clothes, furniture, books to toys. The store hours are Monday-Friday 11a.m. to 5 p.m. Closed on weekends and Holidays.

We are currently covering expenses with donations. We are hoping for 300 families/individuals to pledge a $10 donation per month for 12 months. This would give us the $3,000 a month needed to run the shelter building. Please help us and send anything you can.

If you would like to become a member contact the shelter or e-mail us.
