Serving The People And Animals Of Miami County Since 1945

Miami County Humane Society

Committees

The Miami County Humane Society is a non-profit, all volunteer organization that is interested in the welfare of the animals in our community. The MCHS is made up of committees that always need ideas and support from our members and other volunteers.

If your are interested in any of the committees or have ideas for new programs we are very interested in hearing from you.

Spay/Neuter

Low/Fixed Income Assistance—For Miami County residents who meet our family income guidelines we can offer assistance with the costs of spaying or neutering your pet cat or dog.

Money-off Coupons—Available to Miami County residents only, a $15 off coupon, good at all Miami County Veterinary Hospitals, to be used to spay or neuter your cat or dog. This offer is only valid when using one of the veterinarians in our county.

Membership

This group is trying to build up our membership. Our success depends on our members and since volunteers schedules are always changing, we need a good number of volunteers to keep our programs active.

Education

This program promotes humane education in our schools as well as the community, and has developed a program we call RRF (pronounced "Rufff...") This stands for "Responsibility, Respect, and FUN! " This was developed with the grades 1st thru 4th in mind, but can be adapted to other levels as well. We are always open to new ideas

Fundraising

As with any non-profit group this is a critical committee. They work on different fund raisers each year so that we can have the funds to offer the programs that are needed in our community. Past functions have been an auction, car wash, bake sale, garage sale, and aluminum can drive.

Feral Cat Trap/Neuter/Release (TNR)

A group of community volunteers have gathered to provide the manpower for a TNR program for feral (wild, not socialized) cats in the Union Township area. This method provides the most cost effective and humane way of managing feral cats and preventing overpopulation. We hope to expand this program to additional townships in the county and are looking for volunteers.

Legal Research

This committee researches the issues in the county that exist, and keeps the society informed on changing laws and issues that we should focus on locally.
