OUR MISSION

Improving the lives of and preventing cruelty to domestic and companion animals

through humane education, shelter, and uniting pets with families.

Pets of the Week Meet: Aida and Adam   Aida is a one year old domestic shorthair cat. She has a beautiful black and orange tortoiseshell patterned coat, and a stellar personality. Aida is super friendly and ready to be the latest addition to your happy home! Adam is a 7 month old Shepherd-Rottweiler mix. Not only is he VERY friendly, but a great candidate for obedience training. He loves to play with other dogs and learn new tricks from our volunteers. Don't forget! Every adopted pet at the Kokomo Humane Society comes with 30 days of Pet Insurance, FREE!
