Support Shelter Pets through Humane Indiana’s 12 days of giving!
Support Humane Indiana Shelter Pets through our 12 Days of Giving Donation Challenge! Each day, we are encouraging our community to send top-needed items from our Wish Lists to ensure our Shelter pets have all the supplies they need for a healthy, happy Holiday season and beyond.
🎶 On the First day of Giving, our followers gave to us...
Dog Training Treats!
Our Staff work tirelessly with adult dogs and puppies to master basic manners, overcome fearful behavior, and work on social skills. Having training treats on hand allows us to reward the pups in our care with positive reinforcement, setting them up for success when they find their furever homes.
On the SECOND day of Giving, our followers gave to us...
KITTY LITTER!🎶
With over 50 cats in the Shelter and Foster, we go through litter extremely fast!
🎶 On the thirD day of Giving, our followers gave to us...
ENRICHMENT TOYS!
One of the most important things we can provide our Shelter pets is enrichment! Toys that keep our animals' brains and bodies busy help keep them from getting bored and stressed in their kennels. Enrichment helps dogs like Butterfly stay mentally and physically stimulated as they await their furever homes.
On the Fourth day of Giving, our followers gave to us...
Laundry Detergent! 🎶
Did you know? We go through hundreds of pounds of laundry every single day in the Shelter! Having laundry detergent on hand ensures pets like Cinnamon Roll have clean, cozy blankets and beds to cuddle up in as they await their furever families.
🎶 On the Fifth day of Giving, our followers gave to us...
kitten and puppy formula!
Each year, hundreds of orphaned puppies and kittens come through our doors, separated from mom and too young to survive on their own. Having kitten and puppy formula on hand means we can always support these vulnerable babies and get them the nutrients they need at a moment's notice.
On the sixth day of Giving, our followers gave to us...
lickable cat treats! 🎶
From exams to enrichment, we use lickable squeeze-up treats for the cats in our care every single day. They are a great distraction during medical exams, and when spread over a lick mat provide a fun little food puzzle for the kitties in our care.
🎶 On the seventh day of Giving, our followers gave to us...
slip leads!
Even in a snowstorm, our pups have to get out for multiple walks every day, and we can't do that without slip leashes! Slip leads ensure each dog can be handled safely and efficiently as they get in and out of their kennels for walks, one-on-one time, and meeting their potential adopters.
On the eighth day of Giving, our followers gave to us...
bleach 🎶
Bleach is essential to keep our dishes and laundry clean and sanitized for Shelter pets. We go through multiple gallons A DAY to ensure animals like Gracie always have a clean and cozy bed to snuggle up in.
🎶On the ninth day of Giving, our followers gave to us...
SNuggle Safe Discs!
When tiny kittens and puppies arrive at the Shelter separated from mom, they have no way to regulate their own body temperatures. Keeping them warm is critical to survival. Having Snuggle Safe discs on hand allows us to send these vulnerable babies into Foster homes with a safe source of the warmth they need to stay strong.
On the Tenth day of Giving, our followers gave to us...
Paper Towels!🎶
If you know Shelter life (and what it's like cleaning up after puppies ), you know we go through paper towels like crazy! Consider donating a roll (or two, or three...) to help keep our kennels clean and our adorable pups healthy.
