We have reached the goal of being a “no kill community” in 2016 and have continued on that path every year since. We are committed to keeping that status every year from here out. A “No Kill Community” is an animal shelter that does not kill healthy or treatable animals even when the shelter is full, reserving euthanasia for terminally ill animals or those considered dangerous to public safety. Du

ring 2016, Caring Hands reached the goal with 90.42% and improved during 2017 to 93.1%. In 2018, we further increased that percentage to 95.66%! Behind those statistics are thousands of individual stories with happy endings because of your help! So many times when our resources were stretched to the limit, you came forward and brought food for the animals so they did not go hungry. You donated blankets so they were not cold. You gave them toys so they could have a little joy during their stay here. You saved their lives by providing foster homes until a kennel opened up or until they found their forever home. You sponsored their transport fees so they could go to rescues. You’ve supported us in our endeavors every time we have asked for your help. The companion animals here cannot speak, so on their behalf, we say thank you! The truth is, a shelter cannot achieve “no kill” status on its own. It takes a community. To find out how to take the next steps towards saving each and every animal, visit our volunteer, fostering, memberships, or donations pages. Remember, lives are saved one at a time!

Did you know that more than 3 million cats end up in shelters anually throughout the nation? This is only a small percentage of the stray cat population that exists the U.S.

Shelters rely on the support of their communities in order to provide the necessary care for these cats and kittens leading up to adoption. Whether it’s monthly preventative care, spaying & neutering, or life saving treatment, your support directly benefits the health and wellbeing of these animals. Whether you adopt, foster, volunteer, or donate, every effort makes a difference!

CHHS would like to thank everyone who has so generously donated this Christmas season to help our cause. Without the support of the community, we could not provide the level of care that we do for these animals. We still have quite a few furry friends left on our giving tree. Each ornament has a special gift request from the pet, as well as QR codes to our Amazon and Chewy registries. Stop by the shelter to pick your favorite pet from the tree, and help us give every animal at CHHS the most magical Christmas! 🎄❤️ Santa Paws is comin’ to town!

Part two of Monah’s story! ❤️

Caring Hands takes in more than 1,800 dogs and cats per year. Like Monah, we see many animals every year who require medical intervention leading up to adoption. Our dedicated vet staff carefully examine every animal to determine the best care plan throughout their stay. Without the support of our community, necessary medical intervention and day to day care would not be possible. At a time of desperate need where we are constantly remaining at maximum capacity, we need your help now more than ever! Please consider donating this holiday season and help us provide the 5 star care that these animals deserve. Throughout the month of December, your donation has the opportunity to be matched by the Central Kansas Community Foundation.

Your contribution is tax-deductible. The Caring Hands Humane Society Fund is a component fund of Central Kansas Community Foundation, a not-for-profit organization.

Our Story

Our Mission, through the promotion of education in basic humane animal care, is to relieve animal suffering and to prevent cruelty to animals.

At Caring Hands Humane Society, we believe all animals deserve to be treated with dignity and respect during all stages of life. We always strive to provide the best possible care to the animals entrusted to us and to educate others about the benefits of strengthening the bond between humans and companion animals. We are dedicated to finding a home for every animal entrusted to us. We have reached the goal of being a “no kill community” in 2016 and have continued on that path every year since. We are committed to keeping that status every year from here out.

A “No Kill Community” is an animal shelter that does not kill healthy or treatable animals even when the shelter is full, reserving euthanasia for terminally ill animals or those considered dangerous to public safety. During 2016, Caring Hands reached the goal with 90.42% and improved during 2017 to 93.1%. In 2018, we further increased that percentage to 95.66%! Behind those statistics are thousands of individual stories with happy endings because of your help!
