The Grayson County Humane Society is an all-volunteer that operates the Leitchfield Animal Shelter. We are an open admission municipal facility, so must take any animal brought in from within the city limits. We try very hard to find homes for all of our homeless pets, and work very hard to keep them healthy and happy until their time for a new home arrives.

We also assist the citizens of Grayson County by helping them locate low-cost spay/neuter and other vetting services.

Scott County Humane Society ~ www.kypets.com
Scott County Humane Society is a 501(c)3 nonprofit, volunteer run organization, that strives to eliminate euthanasia of cats and dogs in Scott County, Kentucky through lifesaving programs in spay/neuter, rescue, foster and adoption, and community education. Scott County Humane Society does not have a facility, and we are not the Scott County Animal Shelter. We rely 100% on foster homes to house our adoptable animals until they find their forever homes!

In cooperation with Kentucky Humane Society and S.N.I.P clinic, low-cost and free spay/neuter of cats and dogs happen each week! Call (502) 863-3279 for more information and to schedule an appointment. More than 1000 cats and dogs benefitted from this program in 2007! Offer monthly free spay/neuter for barn, feral and stray cats in Scott County during monthly clinics run by our Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) Program. More than 700 free-roaming cats were altered in 2007! Our cat and dog foster-adoption programs place homeless pets facing euthanasia at our county shelter into volunteers homes. These foster homes nurture each adoptable cat or dog, address behavior issues and ensure each adoptable pet is FULLY vetted before going to its adoptive home. Each Saturday our volunteers are at the Scott County Animal Shelter from 10AM to 3PM, walking dogs, playing with kitties and always happy to talk with you about adopting a homeless pet. The shelter is located at 1185 Cardinal Drive off of highway 25 North in Georgetown. The shelter is NOT the Scott County Humane Society. SCHS assisted in the passing of a mandatory spay/neuter ordinance for cats and dogs adopted from Scott County Animal Shelter, and also supports legislative measures to improve the condition of state run animal shelters in Kentucky. Since 2004, Scott County Humane Society has participated in the PetSmart Charities "Rescue Waggin'". This program transports about 20 dogs and puppies each month across the country to other shelters where they can find homes.Our "Kind Kids Program educates children about proper care and treatment of animals. Our adoptable felines make a weekly appearance on Saturdays at the PetSmart in Lexington at Hamburg Pavilion. Adoptable dogs visit the Tractor Supply Store in Georgetown on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of the month.

You can contact us at 502-863-3279 for more information about any of our programs or adoptable animals.


Paws, Claws & More

Paws, Claws & More is a new rescue group in the Paducah area, but we are made up of seasoned rescuers who have saved hundreds of animals either as individuals or with other rescue groups. PCM is made up of volunteers only. We have no paid staff.

Our goal is to save animals and find them great, loving homes. When we rescue an animal, we have certain vetting requirements that the pet must adhere to before getting adopted out. This includes spay or neuter, vaccinations, worming and treatment for parasites.

We turn over our animals to no-kill shelters so that they may find homes or we adopt them out ourselves. We sometimes transport our rescued animals to shelters in areas where spay/neuter laws are more strict, as these areas don't have as many strays and abandoned animals as the Paducah area does.


The Kentucky Humane Society,

a prive, non-profit organization, advocates the humane treatment of companion animals through leadership and proactive solutions to pet overopopulation, including adoptions, education and spay/neuter efforts. As the area's number one resource for pets and pet services. KHS offers adoptions, behavior training, animal rescue, spay/neuter efforts, boarding, grooming, Doggie Daycare, in-home pet sitting, humane education programs and summer camp for kids. For more information, visit www.kyhumane.org or call (502) 366-3355.
Also, we do offer behavior training classes and wanted to see if we could submit to you some information on those to be listed somehow on the site. Again, thanks so much for including us and being such a wonderful friend to the animals!


Holly’s Place Animal Rescue

Holly’s Place Animal Rescue is dedicated to helping solve the problem of homeless dogs and cats and improving the quality of life for all companion animals. Holly’s Place works closely with humane societies, animal shelters, and rescue groups to help insure a brighter future for our animal friends.
We generally focus on pulling dogs & cats from shelters when their time is up, and we concentrate on training & socialization in foster care prior to rehoming.
Financial assistance for spay/neuter is available to the public as well. With millions of animals being euthanized in shelters every year, spay/neuter is the single most important aspect to animal welfare. If rescue & adoption is a bandaid, then spay/neuter is the surgery. Both are needed in our opinion.
Holly's Place incorporated in and became a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization in 2002.


Estill County Animal Shelter, in Irvine, KY. Regretfully we are a kill shelter. but trying so hard to make a difference. Last yr. 1,985 only 187 adopted, but 420 rescued, still all the others were euthanized. We are a small non-profit county run shelter that takes in 4 other counties. We are rescue friendly. If that dog or pup is in danger, we have a site on petfinders.com just look for Ravenna, KY. We try to preach a spay and neuter, to bring down the pet population. Any one can feel free to e-mail us. Thank you for being there for the unwanted little ones that did not ask to be here in the first place.


A Voice For Animals (AVFA)

A Voice For Animals is a non-profit, 501 (c) (3), animal welfare organization formed in 2003 to improve the quality of life for companion animals in South Central Kentucky through education and promotion of spay/neuter programs. These are our current programs:

Pets In Need, a grant program to assist pet owners and Good Samaritans with veterinary care for a pet with a catastrophic illness or injury.

Save A Litter, this program is currently on hold until our last litter of puppies are adopted.

We hold monthly adoption days at Petco in Bowling Green and we are having our first adoption day at a new pet supply shop, Pet Dreams in Greenwood Mall, on Jan. 26. You can view our adoptable pets at www.foranimals.petfinder.org.

It is our hope that education, especially promotion of spay/neuter and proper care for animals will have an impact on reducing abuse and neglect of animals. We hold monthly meetings with educational presentations. Guests are always welcome.
