Northwoods Humane Society
The Northwoods Humane Society
Is a place where animals come to stay
Those who are lost, abandoned, without a home
Every single day
Some days can be real challenging
Tending to each and every need
Some animals are sick, and on medications
But we help them get better indeed
There is a process they all go through
When they are feeling up to par
They are spayed, neutered, and vaccinated
Some become a shelter star
It takes very special people
To care for each and everyone
It takes a lot of hard work from all of us
But also can be fun
Some days they come in one by one
Other days by two's, three's, and four's
Even when the house is full
We seem to find room for more
We have many different breeds of cats
That you can come to see
Tabbies, torties, and calicos
But my favorite is Siamese
We also have many types of dogs
Cuddly puppies too
They all deserve a happy home
Think about taking one home with you
It will just break your heart
It may even open your eyes to see
They are here, sad and lonely
In dire need of a family
The animals have different personalities
They are special on their own
Willing to give you all of their love
They can comfort you in your home
We are a non-profit agency
We accept donations of any kind
Ever bit helps us care for the pets
So, please try to keep this in mind
We are not a part of other shelters
So please, sit down and pick up the phone
To give a pet a chance at life
A place that could possibly be a home
Please consider a pet today
Call or stop in to take a glance
Remember, you are their only hope
So please give a pet a chance
