Moore Humane Society is a private, non profit organization incorporated in 1966. We operate the only non
profit animal shelter located in Moore County and practice "no-kill" philosophies. We are not part of Moore
County Government or animal control. We receive no government support of any kind or funding from any
organization. Private donations are our only source of income and our ability to rescue homeless animals in
need depends entirely on the compassion and generosity of our members. Your support will help us save the
lives of and find homes for Moore animals!
Mission Statement
The Moore Humane Society is a private, non profit organization dedicated to protecting and improving the
welfare of animals. We foster compassion, responsibility and respect for all animals through education,
legislative activism and aggressive spay/neuter and adoption programs.

Shelter Policies
• The Moore Humane Society is a long-term care facility that practices no-kill philosophies.
• Our primary goal is to rescue and find appropriate placements for homeless animals.
• Adoptable animals that are mentally and physically healthy, and that demonstrate no signs of aggression, will
remain at our facility until the right home is found for them.
• We accept strays into our facility. However, because of current local ordinances, we must notify Moore
County Animal Control when accepting strays into our facility.
• We cannot accept vicious, feral, or animals that have been known to bite into our facility.
• For the welfare of our resident animals, we cannot exceed our capacity.
• We believe in the need to educate the public so that less animals are without homes (aggressive spay/ neuter
programs); and to help ensure that all animals are treated humanely.
• Please understand that we do not receive money from any governmental or other agency. We survive solely
on private donations and our financial capacity is limited.
• Adoption applications are not necessarily approved on a first come, first served basis. Our goal is to find the
right family for the right animal, and the right animal for the right family. Therefore, we reserve the right to
approve applications that appear to be the best fit for both the adopter and the adoptee.
• All animals five months or older (occasionally younger) must be neutered and vaccinated for rabies before
being released into the custody of the adopter.
• We reserve the right to deny an applicant whom we feel has falsified their application, or who is not able to
properly care for an animal, based on our standards. We understand that our standards may not be in
agreement with others.
• We are not at liberty to “hold” certain animals for individuals, as we must make room as soon as possible for
animals in need.
• We will not knowingly place an animal that is unhealthy or aggressive into someone’s home.
