Humane Society of Elmore County News – 6 Oct '25

This coming Friday night, 10 October, at the Alabama National Fair is a tremendous opportunity to attend the Fair for half price OFF of regular admission if you bring a donation of dry or canned pet food, pet toys, blankets or towels with you. These donations will be shared by the three area shelters – Humane Society of Elmore County, Prattville-Autauga Humane Society and Montgomery Humane Society. We are thankful to the Kiwanis Club of Montgomery members and Alabama National Fair for their hard work making the Alabama National Fair such a success and for helping our River Region Animal Shelters like this.
If you aren’t going to the Fair, we can say that we are in dire need of dry dog food as we are just not getting the ‘broken’ bags from retail like we used to. Our supplies are critically low but our intake of dogs continues unabated sadly. We will accept any brand of dog food but a good price point food that all of our dogs eat well is Pedigree. Donations can be dropped by the Shelter anytime Mon-Sat or shipped direct to us via Amazon, Chewy or Walmart as the big three. FYI that the one thing they never include is info on the donor so if any donor needs a receipt, please just contact us at the Shelter and we are happy to send a receipt. You can always see our “NEEDS LIST” on our website at https://www.elmorehumane.org/hsec-wish-list.html which also has the links to our wish lists on Amazon, Chewy & Walmart.
For our supporters who work for the Alabama State Government and want to donate financially, no better way than through the 2025 State Combined Campaign (SCC) and our Agency Code is 106803. The SCC is critical to Alabama non-profits and helps make donating to deserving charities easy either one time or via monthly payroll deduction. We want to thank all who so generously donate to help not only our shelter, but non-profit agencies everywhere.
For our members, our Humane Society’s Annual Membership Meeting on Tue, 21 October, 6 pm, Wetumpka Civic Center, 410 S. Main St, Wetumpka, AL 36092. Hope to see you there!

"Each of us can only do the best we can for as many as we can and that will never be good enough for those of us who care!"
"Adoptions are about finding homes more able, more committed or simply better for the pet that came into our charge. Adoptions are not about numbers or rewards or statistics. We strive to place our pets like they are our own."
