OUR GOALS


Community

We are proud to partner with a variety of local and national organizations to create a more compassionate community. Whether it’s Coins for Critters, educational speaking engagements, SNIP vouchers, pet medical expenses, or access to information and resources, our staff is here to help.

PLACEMENT

Placing every adoptable pet in our care in a loving home is our goal. Our animals are frequent guests at at community events like the Rose Show Festival, Wildlife Arts Festival, and Victorian Christmas. We host adoption events and transport animals to partner adoption events where we raise awareness for our cause and get the tails wagging!


Thomasville Humane is a charitable organization committed to promoting the humane treatment of animals through a variety of means, including adoption programs, foster care programs, spay and neuter services, and community education projects with the long-term goal of eliminating unwarranted euthanasia.

More About Us


Thomasville Humane is the largest non-profit animal welfare organization in southwestern Georgia. Our limited admission animal shelter provides a temporary home and services to abandoned, homeless, and abused pets.

A group of local animal welfare advocates founded and incorporated our Thomasville animal shelter in 1970. Today, we carry on their mission and are committed to ensuring the humane care of the animals in partnership with our community.

Because we are independent, we rely on individual contributions, grants, and fundraising efforts. Beyond monetary contributions, the Thomasville Humane also relies on volunteers to continue serving the community.

Thanks to the support of our community, we help thousands of animals every year. Because of the community’s help, we have prevented animals from being euthanized and instead helped them find good, loving homes. We work hard to be the area’s leading advocate for animal welfare. Please help us continue these programs with your financial support!

Thomasville Humane received its exemption from federal income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code in January 1978 and maintains registration as a Charitable Organization in Georgia through the Secretary of State, Professional Licensing Boards and Securities Division.
