Hi! My name is Clarissa, and I’m a smart, sweet and playful gal. I’m excellent with other cats and a delight to be around.

Wiggles is a fun little teen who is super with other cats and friendly. She lost her tail due to an injury but has sprung back and is as active as ever! Please stop by the Darlington County Humane Society shelter to visit with Wiggles and all of her friends.

The month of October is Adopt a Shelter Dog month. Darlington County Humane Society staff encourages everyone to visit their local animal shelter to adopt a homeless pet. There are so many wonderful animals eagerly awaiting your arrival. Please make your way to your local animal shelter and meet the dog of your dreams!

Darlington County Humane Society Pet of the Week

Darlington County Humane Society’s Pet of the Week

More than 100 runners and walkers turned out for the Second Annual Bark at the Park Saturday in Byerly Park from as far away as Tennessee. The youngest participants were 7-year-olds Spencer Tripp and Jenny Powell; the oldest was 84-year-old Franklin Mason of Mullins.

“Hi everyone! We are so excited you are reading about us. We are the soon to be famous Spanky-Sparky brother duo who bring joy and delight to all who meet us. We might be a tad shy when you first meet us, but we quickly warm up and welcome you into our inner circle. Being young and without consistent supervision and guidance, we could benefit from a basic manners course but are smart as a whip so we would catch on right away. Come by and see for yourself why volunteers showered us with gifts of new bandanas to make us look super special for our photo session!”

To meet payroll at the shelter this Friday, the Darlington County Humane Society Board has had to borrow money ($440). In two weeks another payroll is due ($3200). There is no money at all for that.
