This lovely lady is Blinky. She was found as a stray kitten in 2010 and has been living at the Humane Society ever since. Blinky is a five-year-old calico domestic shorthair. She is up to date on all of her vaccines, and has already been spayed. She’s incredibly gentle and loves all people and other animals, so she would fit seamlessly into any adoptive family.

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 is housing nearly 100 cats at its Maryville 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, adult cat food, dog food, and kitty litter.

The New Nodaway Humane Society is always looking for volunteers or foster families and individuals 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.

This coonhound is sniffing around to try and find the perfect person to adopt her. Twyla is two years old, has already been spayed, and is up to date on all of her vaccines. She has lots of energy, and loves going on car rides and long walks. Twyla likes to be top dog, so she will do best in a home where she is the only pet. She is also quite skittish around men, but she loves women and children, so she would be ideal for a single mother and her children or a sole female owner.
