Baby Aspen loves yummy treats🐰🥕🧡😋

She wrote you a message! Read it here:

They call me Baby Aspen. I'm a younger gal and am spayed. I like the quiet things in life and am looking for an adopter who feels the same! I am easy-going but like to check out my surroundings at my own pace. My approach to new situations is a bit more timid but I like to become comfortable first.

I am accustomed to living in a home where there are lots of other bunnies. I have never shared my personal cage with anyone so that may be something that I like to keep to myself, but if you have other nice bunnies that will welcome me it could be cool to be around them.

I've heard that bunnies enjoy fruits and veggies! I'm looking forward to trying new foods when I get adopted! I also heard they can be quite yummy so it will be super fun! Please call Michiana Humane Society to schedule a time to meet me. The number is (219) 872-4499. Love, Baby Aspen.

This is Basil! He is the friendliest, coolest cat ever! He will be the first to welcome you as a visitor and somehow always convinces everyone to stop and pet him!

Speaking of petting Basil, his fur is the softest ever! He will need his adopter to be diligent about brushing him as he does become matted easily. Basil seems to enjoy being brushed so that should make it quite easy to keep up on!

He has lived with other feline friends before and shares the kitty gazebo with some at the shelter, too! Basil is great with pretty much everyone! He is so loving, affectionate, and is a total lap-cat.

Trust us - you want to adopt this amazingly purrfect boy! Basil is about five years old and is neutered. Call (219) 872-4499 to schedule your appointment!

Introducing Hiccup! We're so in love already. He a Introducing Hiccup! We're so in love already. He always wants you to pet him and will doze off in a catnap if you are scratching his chin! He is about one and a half years old and is neutered.

Hiccup arrived at the shelter with a broken toe on his right paw. We are monitoring it closely and have our vet involved with his progress. At this point, we are unsure if a toe amputation is necessary as he is weight-bearing. If you are interested in adopting Hiccup, he will need to get to his follow-up vet visit to determine the next step.

He sure is an interactive fellow. Hiccup hasn't been up in the adoption room very long at all and already he is adjusting and snooping around! He loves to use scratching posts and roll around in catnip.

His fur is so soft that it is very easy to get caught up in petting him! Plus, he's simply adorable!

If you have other kitties in your home that are friendly, we think Hiccup may enjoy hanging out with them! If you have questions about the medical care for his toe, please call (219) 872-4499 and ask to speak to Karen or Maddie. You may schedule an appointment to meet him then, as well!
We are so proud of Iris! Over the past month, she' We are so proud of Iris! Over the past month, she's been making improvements when meeting people! She still needs time to acclimate and become friends but she is succeeding! 

Iris has been with us for over five months. She is stressed out in the kennel environment, regardless of how hard we work to provide her with enrichment and extra time outside.

Iris's kennel stress has led to her being fearful and reactive sometimes when meeting new people, which leads to not many people applying for her, which lengthens her stay inside of the kennel, which only furthers her anxiety. Iris will need more than one visit to acclimate to you. Trust us when we say that once she knows you are a friend, she is the most loyal and loving companion. 

Iris would also be totally ideal for adults only who love training; someone who loves spending their time at a dog training club. She has an incredible ball drive, scent drive and work drive.

Iris adores our kennel staff and volunteers and can absolutely develop that relationship with you. We could see her being the best hiking buddy and loving outdoorsy stuff.

Iris was surrendered to the shelter due to no fault of her own. Her previous owner loved her very much but was unable to continue to care for her. She used to live with a small dog in her previous home. Since Iris's stress levels have been increasing, her dog interactions have not been going as well as before. It is possible that down the road, Iris could live with another dog, but at this point she will need to be the only animal in the home. When she is outside, she focuses well on her handler and re-directs from other dogs; especially if there is a tennis ball in her sight!

Iris is a very intelligent girl. She knows how to sit, come, stay, leave it and "let's go". "Let's go" is the command that her previous owners said to re-direct her attention, go for a walk, or leave a room. She really listens beautifully.

When meeting new people, she does best with a very slow introduction. She has lunged before when she is afraid and we want to set her up for success in the future.

She is about five years old and is spayed. Please call (219) 872-4499 and ask to speak to Karen
