The Calhoun County Humane Society, Inc. (dba The Animal Shelter), located in Anniston, Alabama, was established in 1973 as a result of the efforts of Susan Levens Phillips.

​

Our mission is

​

**To provide the pets in our care with a decent, safe and sanitary place;

**To prevent cruelty to animals;

**To stop suffering among animals mutilated or injured;

**To educate the public about the tremendous pet over-population facing the United States;

**To promote spaying and neutering to stop the senseless killing of animals;

**To place as many pets as possible in responsible homes.

Adoption fees are $90.00 for dogs and $80.00 for cats. This helps defray the medical and boarding costs. The adoption fee for dogs includes a full exam, vaccinations (DA2PLP+CV, Bordatella, Rabies) spaying/neutering, heartworm check, deworming, heartworm prevention, flea preventative, and in some cases, a skin scrape. The adoption fee for cats includes

a full exam (feleck/FIV tested, FVRCP), spaying/ neutering, rabies, deworming, and flea preventative.

If you wish to adopt a pet you will need to fill out an adoption application. You can either pick one up at the shelter or email the shelter to request an application be emailed to you.
