Our Mission
The Forrest City Area Humane Society needs
your help and support in order to keep growing and improving our
facilities to create the best environment for the dogs we care
for. It is our goal to shelter, protect, and defend the animals
under our care. We will continue to educate the public about proper
pet care and to raise funds to support the programs that make
this possible. Become a part of this network and help ensure that
as many dogs as possible are adopted into loving, forever homes.
 
Please come by the shelter, call 633-7036
or
Send an email through Petfinder to adopt or foster a homeless
dog!
Unchain Your Dog!
Life on a chain Is a Sentence without Parole! Have
a heart! Find another way to keep your dog safe at home.

Something You Should Know!
It is ILLEGAL to abandon an animal. Dropping off
a dog at the shelter after hours IS abandonment.
Don't break the law! If you have puppies that need homes find good
homes for them. If you can no longer take care of your pet find
someone who wants him and can give him a good home. When a pet is
dropped off at the shelter he not only loses his home & family,
he loses his name and all of his records.
Report Abuse & Neglect
Before It's Too Late!
Animal cruelty is not only wrong—it is against the law!
To report abuse:
Call the Forrest City Police Department - 870-633-3434
We need supplies!
Please check our
Wish List! This list
is updated as the need for specific items changes. Many supplies
are needed to care for the animals! Some items are urgently
needed. The members and volunteers work very hard to make
sure that each animal has water, food, exercise, and the attention
that they require but supplies run low very quickly. You may find
that many of the items on our list are tucked away in your storage
rooms or pushed into the back of your closets. As you begin to do
your spring cleaning please remember the animals!
We need volunteers!
We need volunteers to help care for and socialize the puppies and
adult dogs at the shelter. Each animal benefits from a little extra
time with a volunteer who can remove the dog from his pen to be
groomed, take a walk, play with a ball, or to just enjoy being petted.
All dogs love attention and the dogs at the shelter respond positively
to love and care.
We need foster homes!
Not every dog can be placed at the shelter. Many times it’s
a case of just not having enough room to accommodate them all. The
gift of time and love is immeasurable to animal that needs a caregiver
until he finds his forever home. Puppies and adult dogs are available
for the in-home Foster Program. Save a Life! Just fill out our Foster
Application and call the shelter!
Foster Application Form (PDF)
We need your financial support!
Donations to the FCAHS are tax deductible and enable us to continue
with programs that help provide medicines, vaccinations, vet care,
spay/neutering, food, improvements to the shelter, education and
special circumstances. Donations are one way that busy people can
make a difference to the lives of the animals under our care.
We need your help with special
events!
From time to time the FCAHS holds special adopt-a-thons that help
spotlight highly adoptable animals. We do this at various locations
around Forrest City and we need help with animal transport, set
up, maintenance care and adoption paperwork and interviews. Many
animals have been adopted into their forever homes this way. Won’t
you help?
