    It's been years since my last visit, which ended with us finding the most lovable golden retriever…read moremix puppy that we named Ruby. The outdoor socializing area with the bone still exists. This year we visited to meet cats. The cat area had some in their crates and we were asked not to open the doors or lift them without someone helping us. The other had a few cats roaming and enjoying an open room. Overall they seemed stressed with one another as we watched several hissing and swiping of another got too close. Kittens were in a locked room. They were cute and fairly social but we weren't allowed to see them. Most were tagged for the cat cafe. We hoped to see an older cat in the Intake area. We waited awhile for assistance and eventually gave up and left. The volunteer working the front desk was lovely but the staff didn't stop to check on us. In the big picture the organization does good things for the community and pairing people with pets, including horses. The main campus hasn't changed throughout the years and is aging. They are also no longer partners with Feeders for adoptable animals. Check out their website for dogs and cats and follow them on social.

    The Kentucky Humane Society (KHS) pulls in $9M a year from donations, but where's the money really…read moregoing? Their 2022 Form 990 claim funds programs like adoptions and vet care, but the details are murky--how much is actual animal aid versus glossy PR campaigns with sad puppy eyes? The CEO's raking in $174K, while entry-level Equine Care Specialists scrape by on a measly $34,333, barely livable in Louisville( ($870,000) for administrative costs. reviews on Indeed blast low pay, with some saying they lived "in poverty," plus toxic management, favoritism, and disorganized communication between departments. Pet Retention Services? Just a flimsy list of referrals that abandons owners in crisis. With $1M raised from 2024 galas like Waggin' Tail, it's unclear how much goes to pets versus event costs. KHS's 4-star Charity Navigator rating doesn't hide the opaque spending and focus on marketing over real help. Louisville deserves an animal welfare group that puts animals first, not one lining pockets with donor cash. #TimeForChange #KHSExposed

    I 100% dont recommend woodford humane society. They cancled my appointment just because they are…read morerude and racist. Everyone go to lexington humane society they are nice and helpfull and dont ask so many quesitons. The employes were being so rude to my daughter on the Phone ​. She clearly told the employee that we could take the paper work to them in person but no they wanna be racist and ignore her and say "you cant email it" like if the email doesnt work why do you think she was offering to go in person to show you guys the paper for my dog. And they got mad at my daughter when they called my dogs vet because we didnt have a appointment when my daughter never said we were taking my dog to get her vacacciens at búfalo trace just straight lying to her face and the employee told my son she talled to on the Phone that my daughter doesnt know how to talk like an adult. Just straight lies she was telling my son. Woodford humane society do better. Im so pissed

    I adopted Nicole 4th of July weekend she was a three month old baby kitten. I had a great…read moreexperience and highly recommend this location for adoption. The online registration process was simple, the staff is friendly and assistive, and all the cats were well tended to. Nicole acclimated to my home right away with no signs of fear or having been neglected any time prior to her adoption. She had all of her shots up to date, was neutered, and was litter box trained. Today she is triple in size and weight, climbs stairs in a single bound, and loves to purr loud.
