As you know, we are located in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi and our community was devastated by Hurricane Katrina. We are working hard to help the many thousands of homeless and injured animals all along the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Our heartfelt thanks to those of you who have given generously. We are still in need of foster homes and donations to feed and take care of the injured animals. Please contact us if you can help.
Hancock County Humane Society was founded in 1976 to promote animal welfare. We are a non-profit organization dedicated to the health and well being of all animals in need. The society strives to prevent cruelty to animals and to reduce pet overpopulation by:
* Educating the public regarding humane treatment of animals
* Promoting responsible pet ownership
* Encouraging the spaying and neutering of companion animals
We are a volunteer supported, nonprofit, charitable organization supported entirely by donations. We receive no government funds. We rely solely on your donations and on our volunteers who donate their time and energy.
The philosophy of the Hancock County Humane Society is to promote the health and well being of the pet and animal population through a humane and effective spay/neuter program in order to end the senseless killing of unwanted animals.??We envision a society in which euthanizing healthy animals is unacceptable.
We believe that animals have feelings and deserve respect. Any animal that we rescue is treated in this manner with a determination and willingness from us to make sure they have a healthy and happy life in a loving home.
