Come and see Avery, today. Shelter information: Halfway Home Pet Adoptions receives animals from the Kansas City Animal Health and Public Safety Division and from public dropoff.

The shelter, at 4400 Raytown Road, is open from noon to 4 p.m. Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays, from noon to 6 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays, and from 1 to 4 p.m. Sundays.

| Pets Sharing Office Space at Humane Society - KELOLAND TV Posted: SIOUX FALLS, SD - The Sioux Falls Area Humane Society is seeing another spike in unwanted pets and is running low on food with all of the extra mouths to feed. The Sioux Falls Area Humane Society is full. Not just full, but overflowing with pets. "We usually run somewhere around 200 to 300. Right now we're closer to the 300 mark." Humane Society Executive Director Kori Baade said. The Humane Society has taken in 74 new animals over just the past four days. "All of us have pets in our offices and pets in the back and pets in another building so we're using all the space we can right now," Baade said. Two of the new arrivals can't wait to find a new home. Millie's found a new, temporary home in the retail aisle. Dogs are living in the cat reception room, while many of the cats mingle in their own home-away-from-home. As you can imagine, keeping all of these extra mouths fed is taking a huge chunk out of the Humane Society's food supply, which is why they're sending out an S.O.S for help. "Right now, we're really limited on our food supply. We have about a week's worth left," Baade said. So they're asking the public to donate dog or cat food because the Humane Society expects numbers to go up even more since many several nearby shelters are full. "We're an open admission shelter so that means we take anything. We never turn anything away," Baade said. They will always find room for another pet, no matter how old or young they may be.
