Humane Society of Missouri Unleashes New Chesterfield Valley Center

On hand for the unleashing were Humane Society President Kathy Warnick, Chesterfield Mayor John Nations, Humane Society Board Chairman Andy Bressler, Chesterfield Chamber of Commerce President Joan Schmelig and St. Louis County Executive Charlie Dooley.

November 9, 2006 - The Humane Society of Missouri invites West County residents to unleash their hearts to the homeless animals at our newest location in Chesterfield Valley. The Chesterfield Valley Center offers pet adoptions, veterinary care, a pet-themed gift shop and receiving services for unwanted animals.

“The Humane Society is expanding our geographic reach to broaden our adoption efforts and find more homes for animals in need,” said Kathy Warnick, president of the Humane Society of Missouri. “The growing population in the Chesterfield area
offers homeless animals many opportunities to find wonderful homes.”

The Center offers a new and unique habitat for homeless pets. Much like going to see a new baby in a nursery, adopters can peek into see Labs, Shih Tzus, Siamese and Calicos without anything obstructing the view. The “invisible” cage fronts made of tempered glass let both the animals and people get a good look at each other. Inside, the animals enjoy playing with toys, climbing on perches or just taking a nap in their cribs. “The new animal accommodations are more inviting, engaging and appealing,” said Warnick.

The Humane Society of Missouri’s new Chesterfield Valley Center is just behind Home Depot and faces Edison Avenue.
