Central Dakota Humane Society provides care and support for stray, abandoned, neglected, and injured animals – from rescue through adoption. We provide shelter, a warm bed, nutritious food, veterinary and medical care, socialization, play time, training, and love – and we match the animals with loving, forever homes where they can live their best lives. CDHS helps the community through our program

s:
- Spay/Neuter Assistance Program - provides coupons that reduce the cost of spay/neuter surgeries in the central North Dakota area
- Buddy’s Bowl Program – regularly delivers pet food to pet families in need through local human aid organizations
- Friends Fur Life – matches senior pets with senior people for a waived adoption fee
- 2-for-1 Cat/Kitten Adoptions - Adopt two cats or kittens for the adoption fee of one. Having a playmate and napping partner is so good for their mental and physical well-being. The CDHS shelter provides a place for people in the community to volunteer and provides a spot for folks to enjoy the companionship of an animal, take a breath, and find their calm. Please join us in helping pets in need. We challenge every pet lover to show your love for your own animals by giving back to those less fortunate.

WINTER CAT HOUSES!

We are on the hunt for some large, sturdy totes to use for creating winter cat houses. The type pictured here from Menards work especially well as we can cut a hole on one end and then have the Styrofoam cooler tucked inside, so the cats are out of the wind when inside.

If you have any totes this size or would like to donate to the purchase of totes, we would be so appreciative. (We can't really use smaller totes because the coolers we have are pretty large.) We will be making some winter homes soon and sharing with the public. Thank you for helping those kitties that are living outdoors find a safe spot.

Our Augustus was disappointed by the Augustus portrayed in the chocolate factory movie and would never, ever allow himself to fall into a chocolate river. “C'est très peu hygiénique.”

Doing great things for pets and people!

Central Dakota Humane Society provides vital services for the animal population of Bismarck-Mandan and the central North Dakota area. CDHS rescues, houses, rehabilitats and rehomes stray, injured, abandoned, and abused animals.

CDHS promotes the spaying and neutering of pets to cut down on the number of unwanted litters of puppies and kittens. To encourage people to spay and neuter they offer $40 spay/neuter coupons to the public for assistance with the cost of the surgery.

CDHS provides a place for volunteers to help in the community. They educate about proper pet care, animal cruelty laws, and the organization’s mission through school visits, shelter tours, and service group presentations.

CDHS funds their good work through donations, grant writing, and fundraisers. They encourage all pet lovers to honor their own pets by giving back and donating to CDHS, as they continue doing great things for pets and people.
