Amber and Autumn are two sweet female short-haired tortoiseshell cats who are
in need of a good home together. They were adopted from our shelter as young
kittens in November 2009. When their owner could no longer care for them, they
were returned to us in April 2012. They are spayed, current on shots, in good
health, and have a sweet disposition and good litterbox habits. However, they
seem to be frightened of other adult cats, and being in our community room of
adult cats is terrifying to them. So we have attempted to keep them housed in a
different area by themselves. Unfortunately, this limits their visibility to our
shelter visitors, and limits the frequency of the contact and interaction from
people that they want and deserve. They are playful, but would be perfect for
someone looking for quiet, loving companions. We are anxious to get them adopted
to a good home, and will consider a reduced adoption fee to place them with
someone who will love them. If you, or someone you know, might be able to
provide that home, please contact us for more information!
Since 1974, the third week in April has been designated as National Volunteer Week. It's a time to celebrate the great work done by volunteers, and the Hancock County Humane Society would like to thank the volunteers who give so much time to our organization. Our shelter has no paid staff - all the work is done by volunteers who make a huge difference for the animals we all love.
The Hancock County Humane Society has lots of great adult cats like Dudley, patiently waiting for someone to take them home. During April and May, we will be discounting our regular adoption fees for adult cats to $50 for one adult cat or $80 for two adults adopted. Check our website for pictures of all our adoptable cats, or come in and visit. Our adult cats are fully vaccinated, tested for FIV/FeLV, and spayed or neutered... ready to move in with their new best friend, YOU!
Our paper recycling bin has returned, but in a new location! The bin has been relocated at Carol's Cornerstone Cafe, 301 E. Main Street (basically, across Main Street from our shelter), in the parking lot behind the restaurant. Look for the green and yellow Abitibi recycling bin. All types of paper (newspapers, junk mail, magaines, catalogs, etc.) can be recycled here (no cardboard or plastic), and proceeds will benefit our shelter. A big thank you to Carol for her generosity in hosting the bin!
