City of Hernando Animal Shelter

Animal shelter in Nesbit, MS

We're a very small shelter operated by the City of Hernando. We are physically located at 1203 Nesbit Dr, Nesbit Ms 38651

We are very dedicated to providing the very best care for our city's homeless pets and committed to educating the public about how to properly care for the animals in their families. We do all we can to keep pets in homes and out of the shelter. Because the south has such an extreme pet overpopulation problem, we try to relieve some of that pressure by transporting as many animals as possible to northern humane societies and waiting adopters.
