Other information and links:
* in an apparent attempt to hide the truth, the Macomb Humane Society left blank the euthanasia columns on the Michigan Annual Shelter Report form. It seems pretty clear, since the Macomb Humane Society does not work with rescue groups, that any animals not adopted are killed by this less than humane organization. According to IRS documents, Macomb Humane Society income in 2006 was over $1 million. Please think before you donate. Do you want to contribute to an organization that doesn't even try to help the animals they claim to be saving?
