  1. From Shelter to HomeFargo-Moorhead Shelter AnimalsJeff Canning

  2. The Humane Society Fargo-Moorhead and Cats Cradle Shelter of Fargo are great local organizations. These non-profits rescue cats and dogs from all three of our local pounds. They also take in stray, homeless animals and extricate others from abusive and neglectful situations. Adopting animals from these organizations is a great way for us to help alleviate the problem of homeless animals in our community. Doing so takes loving animals off the streets, from out of the brutal winter cold and sweltering summer heat, and into new homes. This process changes lives.

  3. Cats Cradle is a non-profit organization located in Fargo, ND that rescues cats primarily from the city pound, and from other sources.

  4. According to Melody Larson, volunteer, the cats from Cats Cradle are great animals to adopt. They are ideal as companion animals or pets. She believes adoption from shelters is preferable to using pet stores or breeders. This is because of the large number of homeless animals in the area.

  5. Several cats live together in what are called colony rooms. There are a total of seven colony rooms in the facility.

  6. Volunteers provide daily love and care for the animals. Some volunteers, including Melody, foster cats, or care for them at home.

  7. The public is invited to visit the cats, and they are all up for adoption. The cats love living at Cats Cradle and appreciate all of the love and affection the volunteers give them. However, they all wait for the day to be adopted and be given a new forever home.

  8. The Humane Society Fargo-Moorhead is a non-profit organization located in Fargo, ND that rescues cats and dogs primarily from the city pound, and from other sources.

  9. Tracy Dobos, Humane Society employee, cleans animal kennels, provides food and water, and socializes animals daily.

  10. Barb Kraft, Humane Society volunteer, loves to walk the dogs. Each week, she gives dogs love and affection, and keeps them active.

  11. Can we be part of your family?

  12. Heather Clyde, Humane Society shelter manager, believes that homeless cats and dogs are an issue in the F-M area. Spaying, neutering, and adopting shelter animals are ways we can help to solve this problem.
