Gage is a male 5-month-old domestic shorthair who loves to explore. He gets along great with other animals and people and is always ready to play or cuddle. Gage has been neutered and is up to date on all of his vaccinations. He’s also been litter box trained and is ready to go to his forever home.

What’s happening at the Humane Society?

Anyone interested in adopting either of these animals can call the New Nodaway Humane Society at 660.562.3333 for more information.

The New Nodaway Humane Society is currently in urgent need of soft cat food. Due to an influx of kittens the humane society has nearly 100 cats at the shelter. Most needed is the paté formula used to teach kittens how to eat solid food.

Anyone wishing to donate soft cat food can bring donations to the shelter. Any size or brand is appreciated.

Other needs include paper towels, trash bags, cat food, dog food, and kitty litter.

The New Nodaway Humane Society is always looking for volunteers or foster families willing to help with the animals. If you or someone you know is interested in volunteering, call the society at 660.562.3333.

The society is also seeking people interested in becoming board members.

Donations are accepted at the shelter, which is located at 829 S. Depot St. in Maryville.

The society’s annual fall luncheon will take place from 11 a.m.-1:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 29, at the First United Methodist Church, located at 102 N. Main Street in Maryville.

Brit has been at the New Nodaway Humane Society since March 2014 when she was picked up as a stray. Brit is a 4-year-old pit bull mix who loves to be outside running and playing. She will do best in a home where she is the only pet. Brit is very strong and energetic so she will need a home with only adults, or one with older children who can handle her energy. Brit is up to date on all of her vaccinations and will be spayed before she is allowed to leave the shelter. She is very loving and is just looking for the right person who can handle all of her energy.
