Too Cute Tuesday! Meet Missy!

Hi friends, my name is Missy! I’m a sweet girl looking for my forever home, but I can be a bit nervous in new situations. I love gentle pets and soft words, which help me feel safe and loved. With a little patience and understanding, I know I can blossom into a loyal companion. I get along great with other pups and having a new sibling would be very beneficial for me! I’m ready to share my heart with someone special who will help me build my confidence and enjoy life together. If you are interested in meeting me, please stop into KAAS!

Too Cute Tuesday! Meet Cash!

Hi guys, my name is Cash! I have a playful spirit and a curious nature, making me an ideal companion for anyone looking for an adventurous pet. I am always eager to learn new tricks and am never shy about showing off my impressive skillset. I love nothing more than to play fetch, and I could spend hours outside exploring and playing in the yard. I'm a friendly pooch who loves people, and I am always eager to make new friends. If you're looking to add a furry companion to your family, stop into KAAS to meet me!

Kearney Area Animal Shelter

The Kearney Area Animal Shelter was made possible due to the generous donation of gifts, talents, and time of many individuals. Most importantly, $1,000,000.00 was donated by Scott and Cheryl Morris for the construction of a facility that would be capable fulfilling the mission of the Kearney Area Animal Shelter for generations to come.

After a long and careful planning period, the Kearney Area Animal Shelter broke ground on their new facility on June 10, 2005. The site is located on Highway 30, south of Meadowlark Golf Course and east of the Nebraska Department of Roads facility.

The Kearney Chamber of Commerce ribbon cutting ceremony was held on February 16, 2006 at 4:30 pm. and pet adoptions began Sunday, February 19, 2006.
