Cat Nap Lodge Community Center

The Kalamazoo Humane Society is a non-sheltering nonprofit that promotes animal welfare and works to reduce pet overpopulation and increase access to affordable veterinarian care.

Animals who have been abused or neglected must be saved, cared for, retrained, and placed in new homes. We do not kill. corporation without profit.

We are a non-profit, all-volunteer group that was established in 1991. We are committed to giving homeless, stray, and unwanted cats and dogs in Kalamazoo County a safe haven and finding them new, loving homes.

We are grateful to the Kalamazoo Community Foundation for supporting our mission in Kalamazoo County with a grant. Support from the foundation has specifically been given for the following three deliverables:

A Cat Cafe is a location where people may socialize with adoptable shelter cats in a relaxed, enjoyable setting while sipping refreshments (included with entry fee).

At the Humane Society of South Central Michigan, we support second chances. All of Calhoun County, as well as portions of Kalamazoo, Barry, and Branch counties, are included in our service area. After passing temperament testing and being given a health checkup, we retain animals for as long as it takes to find them a loving home for adoption. Every day of the year, the Watkins Road shelter provides care for up to 100 animals. Each year, the Society's programs for animal care, adoption, and education are utilized by several locals.
