Our History

In 2010, there were over 4,000 dogs and cats euthanized at the City of Midland's shelter. 
Community leaders and animal welfare advocates Susie Hitchcock-Hall, LuAnn Morgan, and Paul O’Neill decided to step in and do something about it.

They set out with a clear and simple mission: to give these cats and dogs a second chance. 


Together, they founded Midland Humane Coalition (MHC) with a mission to rescue healthy, adoptable pets from the euthanasia list and help find them permanent homes. ​
A BRIEF HISTORY

​November 11, 2011  -  On this day, Midland Humane Coalition, in partnership with PetSmart Charities, first opened the doors of our Enhanced Adoption Center located inside the PetSmart store in Midland. 

In October 2021, The Mabee Animal Rescue Center (ARC) was acquired and operated primarily as an intake and rehabilitation facility, where rescues are prepped for adoption before being transferred to its PetSmart Enhanced Adoption Center. 

In 2024, the move to centralize all operations in a single location was initiated. MHC finally moved the Adoption Center out of its PetSmart location and into the The Mabee ARC. 

In August 2024, The Mabee ARC  opened its doors to the public looking to adopt cats and dogs.  ​
