September News: Updates on Lifesaving Efforts, Three Adoption Events, and more!

Thank YOU for Helping Us Help Them!

We asked, and you answered.

We recently shared three stories of animals in desperate need of spay/neuter: 16 hound dogs that had lost their owner to opioid addiction, an influx of cats in Own County, and two dogs (Buddy and Precious) found as strays that led to finding a cat colony. Thanks to our generous supporters, we’ve been able to provide essential spay/neuter certificates to Houndsong Rescue, Homer’s Helpers, and The Humane Society of Owen County. Now, these precious animals will live longer, happier lives and NOT add to the pet overpopulation problem!

When we ask for your support, we mean it. As you are likely aware, we are in critical need of spay/neuter in our state. Our Spay-Neuter Assistance Program for limited-income families sells out within fifteen minutes every Monday morning. People WANT to fix their pets, and we want to help them. Your support means everything to our programming

Looking for MORE Events?

Many small animal rescues do not have a physical location – they host offsite adoption events at locations like pet stores, farmers’ markets, and even breweries.

Check out the calendar to view upcoming events where you can meet cats, dogs, kittens, and puppies of all shapes and sizes!

Rescues & Shelters: Submit your Events!

Indiana-based animal rescues and shelters in the Pet Friendly Services’ network are welcome to submit their events to the calendar. Submissions can include both offsite events AND adoption ‘specials’ at a shelter. Help us help your adoptable pets get noticed! Submit your event here.
