🐈🌞"You're not you when you're hungry!"🌞🐈SNICKERS (Snickers ad slogan)

SNICKERS, 10 weeks old at intake, is a domestic short hair Calico taken in as a dumped kitten on 6/13/25. She was observed being dumped out of a car and the driver attempted to run over her. Luckily, Snickers escaped any physical harm from such a senseless, cruel and inhumane act. A bit persnickety, at intake and for a number of days afterward, one on one attention from one of our board members has softened Snicker's spirit. Her transformation from a hissy, ears down, I mean business, touch me with your eyes only into a loving, purr factory is fantastically welcome! Snickers not only enjoys having her soft, plush fur petted, she also enjoys being held. She likes playing with teasers and stuffed toys, which we often find buried under her rumpled blanket in the mornings. Most of the time, Snickers can be found laying proudly and confidently at the front of her kennel. She's adorable and spirited. Snickers' adoption fee is $85 and helps cover the cost of her spay, vaccinations, worming, monthly flea and heart worm preventive, FIV/FeLV tests, microchip and care while at CCHS. Snickers tested positive for FIV. She must be an indoor only cat, living with other FIV positive cats. For more info. on FIV, please read the FIV fact sheet at the end of the photos.

Photo on pink blanket is from her first week with us. It's great to no longer be greeted with hisses and ears down!

🐕💥RORY💥🐕

RORY, 9 months old at intake, is a mixed breed dog removed for neglect with 3 cats on 6/24/25. At intake, her skin and coat exhibited severe irritation with patches of thinning and absent fur. Access to consistent, good nutrition, fish oil and the application of parasite preventive has improved her skin and coat condition. Rory is the sweetest of girls! She can be a little nervous at first, but that melts away quickly. Rory's a nice walker, especially once she's comfortable with you, at which point she begins to lightly bounce along beside you. Attentive and smart, she knows sit and loves treats. When Rory takes a treat, she does so gently and has a funny, quirky manner of eating them slowly. Calm, gentle and easy going, Rory's a sweetheart. Her adoption fee is $150 and helps cover the cost of her spay, vaccinations, worming, monthly flea and heart worm preventive, microchip and care while at CCHS.

🐈🌞"A-weemoweh, a-weemoweh, a-weemoweh, a-weemoweh. In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight. In the jungle, the quiet jungle the lion sleeps tonight."🌞🐈BIG PETE (The Tokens, The Lion Sleeps Tonight)

BIG PETE, 3 weeks old at intake, is a domestic short hair taken in as an orphan kitten on 5/4/25. What this little guy lacks in size, he makes up for in personality. In the security of his condo, Big Pete is rascally and fearless. He holds his own among older, bigger kittens as they try to push him around. But then, Big Pete sometimes gets himself into trouble by initiating wrestling with a bigger, not in the mood kitten. Outside his comfort zone, Big Pete becomes a shy guy and that's when we see his big heart. He's funny, sweet, loving and playful. He works at fitting in and wants nothing more than to be a part of whatever family he's with. Big Pete's adoption fee is $85 and helps cover the cost of his neuter, vaccinations, worming, monthly flea and heart worm preventive, FIV/FeLV, microchip and care while at CCHS.

🐍 WILDLIFE WEDNESDAY... Snakes alive! 🐍
Many are not fans of this wild creature, but they play an important role in the ecosystem, like eating mice, slugs and insects. Like many wild animals, they're as fearful of us as we are of them. Snakes can be found anywhere from rocks, log piles, to bird houses, chicken coops and dryer vents. Fortunately, most of the 33 snake species found throughout Indiana are harmless. For more Indiana snake information, see wildlife.IN.gov/wildlife-resources/animals/snakes.

He's a happy boy who's treat motivated, loves cats and is affectionate. Fin's adoption fee is $150. He is neutered, current on shots, wormed, treated with monthly heart worm and flea preventive and microchipped.
