    Animal Shelters in Ottumwa, IA

    Ottumwa has two listed animal shelters and rescue organizations, in Wapello County. Nearly all of them are humane societies. Oskaloosa and Fairfield, both within about 22 miles, have listings of their own. It is a short list, but every animal on it is waiting for the same thing.

    Ottumwa has two listed at the moment, and they are shown above with the ones that have photos first.

    The Ottumwa listings all fall in Wapello County, which is worth knowing if you are checking whether a shelter takes animals from your area.

    If nothing here suits, Oskaloosa, Fairfield and Mistic all have listings within about 35 miles. Each one links through from the sidebar.

    Every listing here carries a phone number, and most link to the organization's own website. Calling ahead is worth it — opening hours change, and rescues often work by appointment rather than keeping a building open.
