The Madison County Humane Society, Inc., was formed August 1985. Since that time it has served companion animals and their owners in the area.   The Madison County Humane Society is an independent, non- profit agency.   We are not a division of any County or City and are not funded by any governmental entity or national animal welfare organization.   We are a small, grassroots 501(c)3 corporation, and are governed by a volunteer board of directors.   In 1998, our Board of Directors decided that euthanizing healthy, adoptable animals due to space constraints, was unacceptable. This made the Humane Society the first no-kill organization in the area.   In 1999, our Board again took the progressive action of deciding that no animal would be adopted until it had already been spayed or neutered. In 2004, the organization's name was changed to Madison-Greene Humane Society to more accurately reflect our service area.
