Adoption Program

Lost and Found Program

Adoption Program

To  adopt a pet, you’ll need to complete an application and talk to shelter  staff. It’s pretty simple, but you may feel like it’s an interrogation.  Please don’t take it personally. It’s not about you. We  invest a lot of care into each animal. We want to make sure that Fido  and Fluffy find forever homes, so we need to ask some questions. Please  don’t hold it against us. We are trying to make matches that last a  lifetime. 

Adoption Fees

If  your pet is missing, please notify the Humane Society right away at  522-5200. Animals picked up at large within the city limits by Animal  Control are brought to the shelter.  


Always be sure to keep an identification tag with your name and phone number on your pet’s collar to ensure he can be returned promptly. 

Rescue Program

Share The Warmth Program

Lost and Found Program

 This  program saves the lives of many shelter pets that do not find a home  locally. The JC Humane manager works with rescue groups all across  Indiana and beyond. Those groups watch our web site for animals that fit  into their own programs. If no local home is found, transportation  arrangements are made and volunteers travel all over the state ensuring  the animals make it safely to the new groups.

 JC  Humane also recycles unwanted dog houses back into the community and  provides straw in the winter ensuring that dogs have appropriate  shelter. We also operate a pet-food pantry when food is available.

 Wonderful  people in the volunteer program help JC Humane raise funds for the  daily care of the homeless pets. There are many events to assist with  including My Furry Valentine, the annual garage sale and the Paws and  Claws Golf Scramble.  

Spay Neuter Assistance Program

Spay Neuter Assistance Program

Spay Neuter Assistance Program

 Getting  your pet fixed is a SNAP thanks to the JC Humane. The SNAP program  assists low income families with the cost of spaying or neutering their  pets. By preventing some of the litters of puppies and kittens, we are  hoping that in time we will see a reduction in the number of unwanted  animals coming into our shelter. We join with other humane groups  throughout the USA in this effort.
