We are a group of dedicated people who have the courage to dream for a compassionate, humane community for our animals. While maintaining that animal abuse is the link to human violence, we also celebrate the human/animal connection from a place of spirituality which sustains us emotionally, touches the hearts of even the most hardened and provides us with unconditional love.

🐾🎄 Meet Winston — the sweetest holiday miracle! 🎄🐾

If you’ve been waiting for a sign to adopt the goodest puppy… this is it.

Winston, an 8-month-old Hound mix with a heart of gold, has fought his way through a tough start and is ready to begin the best chapter of his life.

This adorable boy arrived at APL as a confused, scared stray — and shortly after, things got even scarier. Winston wasn’t acting like a normal puppy, and our medical team quickly discovered he had Parvovirus. But Winston? He’s a fighter. 💛 After treatment, TLC, and lots of cheerleading from staff, he made a full recovery and is now healthy, happy, and SO ready for a forever home.

Here’s what makes Winston irresistible:
🐶 Playful, energetic puppy vibes
🦴 Loves squeaky toys, bones, romping, and being silly
🐕 A classic Hound with a classic Hound howl
🧠 Smart, eager to please, and ready for a puppy boot camp
🐾 Friendly and social with other dogs
🐱 Could likely adjust to cats with slow, proper introductions

Winston is looking for someone patient, loving, and ready to guide him through all the puppy basics — and he’ll repay you with endless affection and loyalty.

Let’s help this little survivor find the cozy, joyful holiday home he deserves. ❤️

✨ Adopt Winston and make your season a little brighter. ✨

🎄🐾 Two Little Helpers Looking for a Home for the Holidays! 🐾🎄

If you’re wishing for a little extra magic this Christmas, Speck’s Pet Supplies in Geist has two adorable 7-month-old black and white kittens who are ready to sprinkle your home with joy, mischief, and snuggles!

Meet Lina and Gleam — the sweetest duo who’ve been patiently waiting for their own holiday miracles.

✨ Lina (left) is the picture of Christmas charm. She’s been sitting with Santa himself, whispering her biggest wish: a forever home in time for the holidays. With her gentle disposition and soft purrs, she’s sure to warm even the chilliest winter nights.

💚 Gleam, on the other hand, is embracing her playful side — happily perched on the Grinch’s lap. Don’t let the company fool you: she’s a bright, spirited sweetheart who loves fun, adventure, and attention. Her mischievous twinkle is guaranteed to bring laughter to any home.

These girls are great friends, but they do not need to be adopted together. Each would also enjoy having another friendly feline in their new home to keep them company and share in their holiday cheer.

Come meet Lina and Gleam at Speck’s Geist — you just might find the purr-fect addition to your holiday season.

✨ Make their Christmas wish come true. Adopt a little magic this year. 🎅🐱💫

🎁 A Holiday Request from Candy, Jetta & Ernie 🎁
(all three currently available for adoption and supervising this announcement)

Hi friends! It’s us — Candy, Jetta, and Ernie — and we need a quick moment of your holiday cheer. While we wait patiently for our forever families, we’ve noticed something important…

Our shelter is running low on many of the everyday items that help keep us safe, comfy, fed, and loved. With new animals arriving constantly, these supplies disappear faster than Jetta can inhale a treat (and trust us… that’s fast).

As you’re out doing your holiday shopping — or if you're looking for a meaningful way to give back this season — we’d be so grateful if you could keep our needs in mind.

Your gifts don’t just fill shelves… they make our days brighter, our tummies full, and our hearts hopeful. ❤️🐾

Items we’re in immediate need of include:

•Wet Patte Cat Food
•Kitten Food
•Medium Dog Bone Treats
•Soft Dog Treats
•Peanut Butter
•13 Gallon Trash Bags
•99.9% Bleach
•Toilet Paper
•Paper Towels
•Dawn Dish Soap

No matter if you live near or far, you can always help by sending direct to us through our Amazon Wish List: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3W1D8G1JN425Y?fbclid=IwY2xjawOmzRVleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFHWUFOcmJscUJ6dWpydGt5c3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHgrvPito6fesMG4tVy6HKesM8grlCywYzpyKyxiOu1oOuotXE2WoxJoCY9bw_aem_g4YR0kFkezdKg2-OCdTYPA

or with much appreciated monetary donations as well at www.inapl.org/donate

From all of us — Candy, Jetta, Ernie, and every furry friend here —
thank you for thinking of us this holiday season.
Your kindness means more than you know. 🐶🐱💛

🐾 Meet Maggie — Your Next Best Friend Forever 😍

If you’re searching for a loyal, loving companion who’s as sweet as they come, look no further — Maggie is ready to steal your heart. This 5-year-old Rottweiler mix has been through a lot lately, but her gentle nature and cuddly spirit continue to shine.

Here’s why everyone who meets Maggie falls instantly in love:
🩷A total sweetheart with a calm, mellow vibe — perfect for couch cuddles and Hallmark movie marathons
🩷 Found herself homeless, scared, and overwhelmed, but quickly blossomed in the comfort of a foster home
🩷 Smart as can be — she already knows sit, lay down, and stay
🩷 Dog-friendly and has lived with canine friends in previous homes
🩷 House trained and crate trained
🩷 Has a seizure disorder managed with daily Levetiracetam — easily continued with your vet’s guidance
🩷 Was around children in her prior home and did well
🩷 Cat compatibility unknown

Maggie just wants someone to love, follow around, and curl up beside. She’s the whole package — gentle, affectionate, and so deserving of a forever home where she can feel safe and adored.

📍 Apply to adopt Maggie at www.inapl.org
Your new best friend is waiting. 🐾🐶

🎄😹 Meet Bitsy — The Holiday Drama Queen! 😹🎄

Bitsy has upgraded her throne for the season… and now she’s holding court at Pet Supplies Plus in Fishers, where she has discovered something truly magical: Christmas ornaments.

Whether she’s planning to bat, boop, or lightly judge the decorations on the tree, Bitsy is fully embracing her festive spirit — and doing it with the flair only a true diva can pull off. ✨

This gorgeous tabby-and-white queen may have started as a stray mom in need, but she’s long since claimed her crown. She lived it up in a foster home with dogs, cats, and kids — all of whom learned very quickly who runs the show — and now she’s ready to charm holiday shoppers with her dramatic meows and irresistible cattitude.

Here’s what to expect from Her Royal Festiveness, Bitsy:
🎁 Currently on a “wellness journey” (a.k.a. diet) — and will remind you when it’s snack o’clock
😻 Follows her people like a sparkly Christmas shadow, meowing for attention
🎄 Delicately testing ornaments to see which are worthy of her paw
🐾 Allows royal snuggles and being picked up — she knows she’s the gift
🐶 Gets along with dogs, cats, and kids… as long as everyone respects the hierarchy
💅 Sassy, sweet, silly, and full of personality

If you’re dreaming of a Christmas with comedy, cuddles, and a cat who doubles as a holiday décor inspector, Bitsy is your girl.
