Clayton County Humane Society

Jonesboro, Georgia

Cause Description:
The Humane Society was conceived and is promoted in an effort to prevent cruelty and inhumane treatment of animals, furthering the age-old bond between people and animals, for the betterment of both. The Clayton County Humane Society is a "no-kill" animal rescue facility, operating in the southern metro-Atlanta area. We provide a loving, caring environment to our animals until permanent placement in adoptive homes can be achieved. NO ANIMAL IS EVER EUTHANIZED TO MAKE ROOM FOR ANOTHER. While in our care, animals are provided with shelter, nutritious food, medical care for illness and injury, preventative vaccinations, and all animals are sterilized prior to adoption. Though the care of our animals is our main priority, we also feel that it is important to educate the public, primarily children and young people, regarding the importance of humane treatment of animals. To this end, we have created an in-school educational program. We visit several thousand school children each year, and response from both the students and teachers has proven our school program to be a success. We have also implemented a pet therapy program with local nursing homes, visiting several facilities each month. During these visits, patients are treated to hands-on interaction with animals from our shelter. We have both dogs and cats eagerly waiting for adoption to suitable and loving homes. All of our animals are vet checked, have all of their shots, are tested for Heartworms, Parvo, Feline Leuk/Aids. All animals are spayed or neutered before being adopted. We do it all for you - After you adopt your new pet you have nothing to do but love them, care for them, let them be your companion and build the bond.
