 Who We Are

We are a 100% all volunteer group.

We are your friends, neighbors, local businesses and corporations, all striving to advance the humane treatment and understanding of all animals in Madison County.

We are a non-profit, 501(c)(3), charitable organization devoted to the prevention of animal cruelty and the betterment of all animals in our community.  Our Board of Directors meets monthly to insure these goals are met.  All members are welcome to attend these meetings and we welcome newcomers.  If you think you'd like to attend one of our monthly meetings, please give us a call at:  859-626-5600

So, what is it that we do?  Our current programs are focused on reducing pet overpopulation (thereby saving lives), by promoting humane education in our school systems and encouraging spaying and neutering with our Spay/Neuter Discount Program.  Additionally, through our information networking, we can help those having an animal-related issue of any kind, whether it be by offering advice and information, referring services, or sometimes simply by lending an ear.

Board of Directors:
Jan Barnes - Richmond
Jamie Bratcher - Richmond
Vicki Bishop Co-Secretary Paint Lick
Kate Gilbert President, Spay/Neuter Director Berea
Vicki Irwin Education Director, Feral Cat Program Co-Director Richmond
Terresa Neal - Richmond
Debbie Reardon Treasurer, Co-Secretary Richmond
Eve Secrist Vice President, Membership Director, Newsletter Director, Web Admin, Feral Cat Program Director Richmond
 
 Who We Aren't

We currently do not have a facility to take in animals.

We are not the county animal shelter, although we strongly support the role they play in our community.  Our primary goal is to help decrease the number of strays and unwanted animals euthanized ("put to sleep") at our county animal shelter each year, by promoting humane education and encouraging spaying and neutering.

If you need an animal warden or are looking to adopt a dog or cat please visit or call the local county animal shelter on US 25 between Richmond and Berea:

Director:  Keith Crawford

Berea, Kentucky 40403

We are not a radical animal rights group.  The old fashioned tainted idea that a Humane Society is over zealous with no regard to our laws holds absolutely no merit.  Overcoming this stereotype, unfortunately, is a battle we face everyday in our community.

We are not a government organization, although we do receive some governmental support.  

We are not a rescue organization, although we maintain contact with and morally support the work of various local rescue organizations.


Murphy, our Mascot, thinks he can handle this big rig.

"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated."   --Mohandas Gandhi
