EDIT: DEPPY IS BACK. Manager was super helpful once we could finally get a hold of one. Front desk person was super confrontational and rude, tried to mislead the people who came in into coming after the facility would have been closed for the day as she was mad about the reviews we had left. Deceptive, vindictive, and unprofessional behavior from her all around. A dog my work had housed for a rescue got picked up and brought here after an incident with his foster, and a chip error led to him not being returned to us. But even once it was fixed they refused to return him as man in Louisiana who was on the chip claimed it was his dog. Deputy was previously saved from an abusive household where he was beaten and we don’t know for certain if this man is connected to his original home or not. His medical bills after he was rescued was around $5000. We housed Deputy for over 8 months after he was saved by Lost Ball Canine Rescue. The most frustrating part is through the entire process NHS has been inconsistent with the information given to those working to get deputy returned. Is it 3 days before he can be returned? Is it 5? Will he even be given to Lost Ball or some other agency? Do not send him back there, give Deputy back.

Thank you Nebraska Humane Society for this perfect kitten! We fell in love with him the first time we saw him but he had an upper respiratory infection. I kept checking every morning to see if he was available yet… sure enough there he was and we rushed that morning to go get him! He’s the perfect fit for our family. Thank you!

Doing a great service to the community at large. Best place to adopt a pet. Must See Granite Cat Bench.

Edit: The girl at the front desk “zoe” was immediately hostile with me the second we walked in the door today. Unwilling to help or be reasonable. The manager was very nice and was able to double check the chip and confirm i was the owner, very glad deputy is home where he belongs. 😌 This place clearly does not care or do what’s in the best interest of the pets in their care. Nhs picked up one of our malinois rescues and denied us access to retrieve the dog. They instead tried to contact the man who did over 5 thousand dollars in abuse to the dog and told him he would be allowed access to dog. Showed plenty of proof that this dog belonged to us but still refused to let us pick him up. I came the second they opened and didn’t leave until they closed and at no point during that time was a manager or anyone smarter than a rock available to help me. What a sad excuse for a “humane society”.

Staff are friendly. However, we currently have an issue with licensing dept. This is one of our three cats needs to get her rabies shot (as they stated, she has been previously late by 4 yrs). This isn't accurate as this began during Covid-19 and continued when I've been extremely ill since 2022 through now (my health is still so bad that I'm unable to drive or work, etc). We were told then by staff to contact their licensing staff member to ensure that we don't get visited by them at our home to enforce it (rabies for one of our three cats). Also, it is extremely impossible to catch her to the vet for anything (even to get the rabies shot) as well as our cat's health has been impacted by doing this (trying to catch her & take her to the vet). We almost lost her because she stopped eating each and every time we tried to catch her.

Adopted my cat when he was five from the humane society. The history of my cat is unknown. He was five when I adopted him. it has been five years. My vet said he is a healthy cat. He had some dental issues but that is common in most older cats. It took him time to adjust to me, trust me, and snuggle. But now he loves cuddles, meows when I come home after a long day, and is living his best life. He is seriously the best company. Before I adopted him I was skeptical about owning a cat. I had to figure out a couple of things once I adopted him. He has his claws which I fully support. But he scratched any furniture that had soft material such as cloth. I replaced that furniture with fake leather furniture and he leaves it alone. He used to rip a hole in the bottom of my box spring mattress, couch, and living room chair. He liked to crawl inside the furniture once he had a hole torn in the bottom of it. After I took him to the vet and realized he was having severe dental pain and had that fixed, he behaved much better. I also made some changes regarding furniture. I got him some cat trees where he could hide and I bought a platform bed, which doesn't require a box spring mattress. The other thing is he doesn't like living with another cat even after being introduced properly. His entire personality changes if he has to share his human with another cat. Immediately after moving out on our own again he was back to his calm and loving self. I just wanted to share this in case it helps someone else with their new kitty. Don't assume all of the behavioral issues are the pets issues to change. Pet owners need to take accountability and make accommodations, too. The blanket in his picture was made by a volunteer when I adopted him. I was at the humane society today and the lady who greeted me and helped me was very nice and professional.
