Southwest Missouri Humane Society

I have adopted several pets from this shelter. I wish they were a no-kill shelter. They also need to work on better infection control in their shelter. Most of the cats that I have adopted from this shelter had serious repiratory infections. Mary Jane got so sick that she almost did not make it. She is a year old now and is very small. She has chronic respiratory problems and almost always has a runny nose. She was one of the lucky ones. Shortly after we adopted her and her brother Peter Parker, this shelter had to euthanize ALL of their cats because repiratory illness was so prevelent. They still have trouble with this. I know that they are trying, but things could be better.

Pros: helping animals

Cons: is a kill shelter, lots of problems with infections in their animals, overcrowded

You do a real service and I Thank you for helping the helpless.

Pros: needed

Cons: none
