History of Blooming Grove Humane Society

Opened on June 19, 1987 for approximately $35,000.00 the shelter came to be after much hard work from then President Huguette Page. Who worked tirelessly with The Town of Blooming Grove and then Town of Blooming Grove Supervisor Nancy Calhoun. Within the first ten days of being opened, six dogs found their way into their forever homes. In the past Dr. James O’Connor would house the stray or abandoned dogs at his veterinarian’s practice on Rt.208, but he only had room for dogs. The new shelter enabled the Humane Society to now house cats, which were previously housed out of Ms. Having the shelter also allowed much of the community to become involved, and allowed for volunteers to help and socialize the dogs and cats.

***ADOPTION UPDATE*** From Rocky! After his rough start in life he is now living his best life for sure! Thanks to his fur parents for giving him a chance!

"He's totally settled in now and is really enjoying his new life! He learned how to jump on the bed so his favorite activities are being nosy in the window and sleeping above our heads on our pillows at night. His back leg strength has been improving quite a bit and he runs around without issue. He's also such a friendly boy; he comes out to greet anyone who comes over. We're so happy we were able to give him a chance and allow him to settle in on his own time!"

Its that time of year again. We LOVE our pups but they for the most part do NOT like fireworks. If you're going to a fireworks display please leave them home. If you're home please provide a safe place for them, and don't leave doors open or unattended. When we say more dogs go missing on 4th of July it is no joke. Absolutely enjoy your holiday but please remember to consider your pups and kitties.

06/16/2024

With temps expected to be in the '90's over the next few days we just wanted to post a reminder. We all love to take our pets with us when we go out but if they aren't welcome inside a retail location or restaurant its best to leave them home. Don't leave your pups outside for any length of time and while they are outside make sure they have adequate access to shelter and water. If you walk your dogs please be mindful of the time and temp and remember to keep them on the grass and off the asphalt. The asphalt, much like the car, gets very hot very quickly and can burn their paw pads. Not trying to be preachy but sometimes people have never thought about some things, sometimes they don't know and sometimes they think it will just be for a few minutes. In this heat 10 minutes is too long.

Big THANK YOU to the Kids Changing the World Club from Monroe-Woodbury High School for doing a Pet Drive for the shelter! We appreciate all the hard work and effort you put in and are very grateful you chose us to be the recipient of this project. We have no doubt you will all truly change the world, you certainly made our little shelter world better today. Excellent work!

***HAPPY ADOPTAVERSARY*** To Cleo (formerly Marble)! Marble came to the shelter as a kitten and because she was so shy and didn't "show well' she was overlooked until she was 7 years old! Someone came along looking for an older cat to adopt and decided Marble was going to go home with her. Her name is Cleopatra (Cleo) now and she has definitely become queen of her domain. She went from shy kittie staying in the closet on her "emotional support box" to ruling her domain and starting to appreciate affection and being petted. It has been a year long journey but worth it. Look at what her mom has to say!

05/24/2024

If any of our shelter friends are out there shopping this weekend we could use some help with the following items:

Purina One Chicken & Rice dry dog food
Friskies Shreds (we can use Pate but have an immediate need for Shreds or gravy)
Friskies dry cat food - any flavor
Any kind of pellet cat litter
Contractor grade trash bags

We appreciate all you do for us!

Sunday morning giggles. 🤗

Rocky was adopted! His new hoomans fell in love with him (and he fell in love right back) and although he had a rough start in life he's in a very good place with people who love him and are willing to let him take his time to settle in. Happy life Rocky and family!

***ADOPTION UPDATE*** From Charlie & Rebel! Charlie was adopted in 2022 and then his mom & dad came back in 2023 to adopt his brother Rebel. And by brothers we mean co-conspirators. 🤗 Here's the update from their dad!

We are just so appreciative of you and the society for giving us our boys. They are loving life. We relocated for our jobs. They now have two floors to run around on and plenty of windows to chirp at. They chase each other up and down the stairs all day. Rebel has started to warm up to me more (he adores Kristina and mushes her all the time) and Charlie has really started to calm down. I think being so close to orange turnpike with the loud cars was giving him anxiety. They’re clever boys and work together in the morning to wake us up for food. Rebel will start yelling for food and then Charlie will jump from the bed to the window and back to force us up. We know they planned it together! Thank you again for rescuing them. Our lives wouldn’t be the same without them!

***ADOPTION UPDATE*** From Nina Ballerina! From her Mom!
Our son gets home from school about a half an hour to an hour before I get home. This is his special snuggle time with Nina.
She has even recently started laying on top of him. She has become very funny and frisky. She loves running around the house, but also loves her snuggle time with all three of us. She's the best girl, and we just adore her.

***Adoption Update*** From Nina Ballerina! She settled right in to her new home, fell in love with her new family and is getting all the love she wants. She is one lucky and happy little girl! From her new mom:

❤️❤️❤️❤️

She loves exploring her new home, playing with toys and is a total purr machine, especially during snuggle time.

02/28/2024

***ADOPTION UPDATE*** From Billie (Formerly Mortitia now named after Billie Holiday) and Bird (Formerly Gomez now named after Charlie "Bird" Parker). They've settled into their new home. From their new humans:

The pair formerly known as Morticia and Gomez are doing great! He still likes to spend a lot of time in my closet but he’s slowly venturing out further and got longer periods each day. She is now a lap kitty. ❤️ Both are eating well and have periods each day where they actively zoom around the house chasing each other. It’s a riot!

02/17/2024

**CAUTION**
We are doing repairs to the flooring in our lobby. Please be careful if visiting us or call ahead. If you step on the patch repairs you have to deal with our Contractor….👷‍♂️🔨🐕

Happy Gotcha Day to Nina Ballerina!! Nina found her perfect match! She found a family looking for a young affectionate cat and Nina fit their needs perfectly. Her new brother is her BFF, she's already venturing out a bit and settling into her new furever home. Wishing them all a happy life together!

02/10/2024

Happy Gotcha Day to Morticia & Gomez! Their new family wanted a pair, they took their time meeting our adoptable pairs and decided that Morticia and Gomez were the perfect pair. Here's what their new mom had to say about their first night.

Our new loves have been playing tag since 5:00 this morning. We’re going to name them for jazz greats Billie Holiday and Charlie “Bird” Parker. So, Billie and Bird. Appropriate name for the former Gomez since he makes that little chirping sound! 💕💕💕

02/09/2024

Happy Gotcha Day to Oliver & Olivia! This bonded brother and sister found a wonderful home together! Their new mom met them and fell in love with them and decided they were a perfect fit for their family. Happy life to Oliver & Olivia!
