Thursday Purrsday..our sweet Poppi🐾

Want to help wild deer survive the harsh winter? Don’t feed them!

During fall, a deer’s digestive system slowly changes to have a perfect combination of microbes and enzymes to digest its winter diet, which is mostly low-calorie woody vegetation. This amazing adaptation enables deer to survive long, lean winters with very little fresh food.

When suddenly fed supplemental foods like fruit and corn, the deer’s winter-adapted digestive system simply can’t adapt fast enough to properly digest these foods, and it will quickly succumb to acidosis, similar to what people with diabetes experience.

Some particularly healthy deer might survive being fed during winter, only to die later. Foods given by humans will disrupt the sensitive balance of the deer’s digestive system, making it unable to digest its normal winter diet, so it may die very slowly after several weeks of being unable to thrive on its ordinary winter staples. It may become weak, slow, or confused, or may suffer from bone deformities, or may grow skeletal and die of starvation.

Feeding deer can also encourage them to congregate unnaturally in one small area and to share a lot of germs, including those responsible for chronic wasting disease. Your good intentions could create ground zero for an epidemic!

Please don’t contribute to this problem. Enjoy your deer neighbors this winter without giving into the urge to “help” by feeding them.

The barrels we had at Kroger have been moved. The company wants to keep donated food behind the service desk. We hope this won’t be a problem for our wonderful community who donates to us. Please just ask where you can leave it. Thank you so much from our 🐾’s! You help to feed so many.

Our Story

The Rome Floyd County Humane Society is a 501 C-3 non-profit, community based welfare organization dedicated to providing for the welfare of animals in the Rome/Floyd County area. The Humane Society receives no government funding or funds from any national animal welfare organizations; we depend solely on the generosity of individual & corporate donors and supporters to fund our programs and services.

The services the Humane Society offers to the Rome/Floyd community include low cost spay/neuter programs, emergency vet assistance, educational programs, and a pet food pantry for the pets of less fortunate residents of the Rome/Floyd County area. We also, depending on circumstances, do animal rescue on a limited case-by-case basis, as we do not have enough volunteers to foster rescued animals.

The RFHS also acts as a community liaison with other rescue groups in the Rome/Floyd County area. These groups include Floyd Felines & Friends, Compassionate Paws, Animal Rescue Foundation (ARF), & Helping Pawz Inc. In doing so, we are able to assist each other with local rescue efforts & adoption co-ordinations (including out-of-state transport), financial assistance with emergency vet care, & fundraising. In the field of animal rescue & adoption, many hands truly do make light work!

If you would like to donate to the RFHS, we are always happy to accept the following: wet/dry cat & dog food, puppy & kitten food (especially canned), puppy pads, clean towels, chew toys/ropes for dogs, cat toys, kitty litter. We also accept monetary donations as well, no amount is too small & is greatly appreciated!
