About Us
Every day, unwanted and neglected animals find themselves in city or county animal control facilities awaiting death. Randolph County Humane Society works with these organizations to rescue animals and place them in loving homes. We operate a limited access animal shelter (not affiliated with Randolph County Animal Control). We are a private, 501c3 organization operated by volunteers. Our team strives to provide the best possible care and provide good adoptable homes for the many unwanted animals in our possession.
Randolph County Humane Society is a limited access animal shelter, which means that we can only accept animals based on the space we have available at the shelter at that time and in foster homes. We are a no-kill shelter, but sadly, we must humanly euthanize animals with serious behavioral problems or severe illnesses. We work with the public and many other rescue organizations throughout the mid-west to place animals in good homes. The shelter is maintained solely with the help of volunteers and donations, we do not get help from HSUS or any other organazations. You can help us make a difference in the life of a dog or a cat by opening your home and your heart through adoption, fostering, volunteering or donations. Thank you for your neverending love and support.
