The Tama County Humane Society contracts to take in stray animals from 4 municipalities and also takes in pets surrendered by their owner. We provide food and shelter for these animals. All animals are dewormed, vaccinated, microchipped and treated for ectoparasites. Medical treatment is available if needed, and all animals are spayed or neutered if applicable. Animals in the shelter are available for adoption. Care is provided for approximately 300 animals annually.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $615 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
