Central Dakota Humane Society CDHS is an Animal Rescue, Shelter and Adoption Center. Kittens especially thrive when adopted with a sibling or a friend. We ARE a vital asset in our community.

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 programs:
- 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.

CDHS TAILS of SUCCESS 💕🐾

From Ozzy's family:
"I want to let you know Ozzy is doing great. He and my older cat Gon became great friends literally on the first day. Since then, he has been spoiled by me and my roommates and loves to wrestle and chase with Gon."

CDHS TAILS of SUCCESS 💕🐾

From Eevie's family:
"Baby J is doing great! I actually decided to rename her Eevie, and she’s been settling into her new home really well! She seems to be very comfortable at home, and her personality is really starting to show. She’s such a sweetheart, and she loves to be involved in everything I do. Whether that’s doing homework or cooking, she’s always so intrigued in what I’m up to. I’m so happy to have her!"

Happy National Animal Shelter Appreciation Week!

We thank our CDHS shelter staff - the most amazing group of folks who do everything they can to care for the shelter pets. They come early, stay late, foster sick pets at home, volunteer to help raise money, and purchase items out of their own pockets - all for the animals. The dole out the blood, sweat, and tears to make sure our shelter pets are well taken care of, happy, and healthy.

The dogs love them. The cats trust them. They provide the love and care needed to help these animals find comfort, health, exercise, and stimulation. They treat them like their own pets, giving away a piece of their hearts to these animals, and then they say good-bye as the pets move on to loving homes.

We also thank and honor our fellow animal shelters, rescues, animal impounds, and veterinarians across North Dakota and across the country. These folks work hard and pour their hearts out every day to help animals in need. We are thankful for those who care about animals.
