Congratulations to our partners on their name change, Finding Furever Friends!
Thank you for the countless lives you’ve changed through compassion, dedication, and love. We are grateful for all you do for the animals in our community. Here’s to new beginnings, continued growth, and many more happy tails and furever homes.
A new name, the same incredible mission.🐾💙
Today is a very exciting day for our organization!
After much thought and planning, the Humane Society of Independence County is officially becoming Finding Furever Friends. While our name is changing, our mission remains exactly the same: providing care, compassion, and second chances to the l animals of our community.
One of the biggest reasons for this change is to help our community better understand who we are. We are an independent, local nonprofit organization. We are not affiliated with or funded by any national humane society organization. Every donation, volunteer hour, adoption, and act of support stays right here and directly benefits the animals in our care.
As we continue to grow, we wanted a name that better reflects our mission of connecting animals with the loving homes they deserve. Finding Furever Friends represents hope, new beginnings, and the lifelong bonds formed through adoption.
Don't worry—we aren't going anywhere! We will still be operating out of the same shelter building with the same dedicated staff, volunteers, and board members who work every day to make a difference for local animals. The only thing changing is our name.
We want to thank our community for the incredible support you've shown us over the years. Whether you've adopted, fostered, volunteered, donated, shared our posts, or simply cheered us on, you've helped make this next chapter possible.
And what better way to celebrate than by finding your new best friend? We currently have lots of kittens, puppies, cats, and dogs looking for loving homes. Stop by the shelter and meet some of our sweet little angels—you might just find your furever friend.
Here's to the next chapter. Welcome to Finding Furever Friends! 🐾
