Fort Morgan Humane Society

A Final Message from Fort Morgan Humane Society: Dear Friends and Supporters,

It is with very heavy hearts that we share the difficult news that the Fort Morgan Humane Society will be closing its doors on March 29th.

For many years, our mission has been to care for and protect the animals of our community—providing shelter, medical care, and a path to loving homes for animals who had nowhere else to go. This work would never have been possible without the extraordinary support of our community.

Because of your generosity, thousands of animals were given a second chance. Your donations helped provide food, shelter, and lifesaving veterinary care. Your volunteer hours comforted frightened animals and helped keep our shelter running day after day. Your adoptions opened your homes and hearts to pets who desperately needed love and stability.

Every success story—every wagging tail, every purring cat in a new home, every life saved—was made possible by you.

We are profoundly grateful to the many people who stood beside us throughout the years: our volunteers, donors, adopters, staff members, veterinarians, and community partners. Your compassion and dedication created a place where animals in need could find safety, care, and hope.

Although this chapter of the Fort Morgan Humane Society is coming to an end, the impact of the kindness shown by this community will continue for years to come in the lives of the animals you helped save and the families who welcomed them home.

Closing our doors is incredibly difficult, but we want to express our deepest appreciation to everyone who believed in our mission and supported our work along the way. Serving this community and its animals has been an honor. We have saved over 13,000 homeless animals.

The Fort Morgan Police Department will take over March 30.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for helping us make a difference.

With sincere gratitude,

The Board of Directors &Staff
Fort Morgan Humane Society

Our Incredible Staff: Lori, Chelsea, Trish, Mary, Tyler, Wakea, Jesse, Isaiah

Board: Holly, Clarissa, Karen

🔹 Free spay/neuter for those who are low-income and can attest to receiving social services.

Last week, we were given a 60-day notice of eviction from the building we currently occupy. This building is owned by the City of Fort Morgan, and at this time, no reason has been provided for the notice. The Police Department wants to take over the shelter. We have always worked in partnership with the Police Department. Complete surprise and shock—No warning, no meeting, no working together. Our shelter meets PACFA standards, we are licensed and inspected by state regulators. We save lives. And we do good work.

Thank you, Friends!

Hello people of Fort Morgan & friends near and far,

Last week, we were given a 60-day notice of eviction from the building we currently occupy. This building is owned by the City of Fort Morgan, and at this time, no reason has been provided for the notice.

We are a NO-KILL shelter and have proudly served this community for 18 years. In that time, we have helped over 13,000 animals find safety, care, and loving homes. Fort Morgan Humane Society has always been here for animals in need—and for the people who love them.

This news is scary and uncertain, but our mission has not changed. The animals still need us, and we are committed to continuing our work no matter what.

👉 Call to Action:
We respectfully ask our community to reach out to Fort Morgan City Council members.
You can contact them by:
*Visiting the City of Fort Morgan website (City Council contact information is listed there)
*Calling or emailing City Hall
*Attending City Council meetings and speaking during public comment

Please ask questions, share your support for the shelter, and advocate for a solution that allows us to continue serving the animals and residents of Fort Morgan.

Please share this post and stand with us as we fight for the future of our shelter and the animals who depend on it. ❤️🐾

We will update everyone as we learn more.
