🐕🎃HAPPY HOWL-O-WEEN from HARLEY🎃🐕

HARLEY is an 11 year old mixed breed, who was found as a stray in Terre Haute and returned to us on 5/1/26. She was originally adopted from CCHS in 2016 as a 1 year old. Outside her kennel and in public, Harley's very congenial. One of our volunteers has taken her home for overnight and weekend stays. A bit reserved at first, once she settles in, she spends most of her time chillaxing and napping, but also gets the zoomies and enjoys racing around the yard. He's also taken Harley on a canoe trip with his 3 sons and she's enjoyed walking in the Route 40 Fest and visiting Bridgeton during the Covered Bridge Festival. During the week of Halloween, she was treated to a trip to select her costume. Because of these fantastic opportunities, we've learned that Harley rides well in a vehicle, is good with kids age 9 and older, is house broken, likes to cuddle in bed with her peeps and will sleep under the covers for short periods of time. She gets along well with other dogs, but prefers those who aren't busy or excitable. Generally indifferent to cats, she does best with proper introductions and slow integration. Harley is interested in what's going on around her and likes to be included. She should fit right in with just about any family! Harley is spayed, current on shots, microchipped and on monthly flea/tick and heart worm preventative. Her adoption fee is $75.

🐈🎃"HAPPY MEOW-LOWEEN!"🎃🐈MACCHIATO

MACCHIATO, 8 weeks old at intake, is a domestic short hair Tortie taken in as a sick, orphan kitten on 8/15/26. Sickly at intake (1st photo), with horrible looking eyes, her health has improved greatly. This dollop of sweetness has the best purr, but her bold persona gets the better of her and it takes a little bit before Macchiato's rich nature shines through. Still a bit spicy with people, she pairs well with other kittens. Macchiato is not a fan of being held, yet, but with a calm approach, one can sneak their hand in to pet her. Eventually, her bitterness melts into deep, sweet purring. An even faster way to break the ice with Macchiato is through play. She'll chase, bat, grab and toss just about any toy. She's happy to play with you or on her own. Bold, flavorful and rich, just like the coffee drink she's named for, Macchiato is the best cup of joy you could ever have! Her adoption fee is $85 and helps cover the cost of her spay, vaccinations, worming, monthly flea and heart worm preventive, FIV/FeLV test, microchip and care while at CCHS.

It takes A LOT to feed 156 animals. This week's list is smaller than normal because we have had some fantastic donations throughout Oct., but with this many animals to care for, supply items are quickly depleted. Please, if you can donate, we'd be extremely grateful! We need donations of the following supplies:
🐈 Purina Cat Chow Gentle Sensitive Stomach Adult Food (Totally OUT!)
🐈 Purina Kitten Chow (Opening the last bag)
🧻 Paper towels
🐶Dog treats - The dogs appreciate BOTH hard- in all 3 sizes - or soft treats and so do we. Large treats keep doggies busy while cleaning their kennel. Medium ones can be broken down into smaller ones in a pinch and small or minis are great for training or when returning doggies to their kennels. Variety keeps the pups happy and helps us do our job.)
We request these SPECIFIC brands/type of food because we use it as a base to maintain consistency in the dog and cat's diets to prevent upset stomachs (except in the case of the Sensitive/Gentle cat food - it's never mixed.)
We and the dogs & cats in our care greatly appreciate your donations. THANK YOU!!!

Locally, Lynch's Garden Center carries ALL the Diamond dog food that we use.

🐕🎃"What famous dog would you like to be? I'd like to be Sparky from Frankenweenie."🎃🐕 RIN

RIN is a 2 year old mixed breed taken in as lost on 12/2/25. He's a 32-35 lb. low rider with lots of energy and strength. Rin loves people, especially those he's familiar with. And he's a busy body who's easily distracted by his fear of missing out. Rin knows sit, but there were way too many things going on at the shelter for him to focus on us for his photos. He likes treats and takes them gently, but once again, Rin's desire to be where he thinks the action is was too distracting for him to focus. He's a friendly, spirited doggy seeking commitment and consistency from a like minded individual or family. Rin is good with other dogs, but his energy level and immaturity may not be a good fit with a calmer, less patient dog. His adoption fee is $150 and helps cover the cost of his neuter, vaccinations, worming, monthly flea and heart worm preventive, microchip and care while at CCHS.

🐈🍋"Hoping you get Lemonheads in your trick or treat pumpkin. They're the best.... like me!"🍋🐈LEMON

LEMON is a 4 year old domestic short hair Tabby taken in as a lost, injured cat on 11/2/25. Found under a truck, she was dragging her back legs as she attempted to walk. With cage rest, Lemon's mobility has improved dramatically. She sits, stands and walks normally, but she does have a head tilt. Very private, the first few months in care, Lemon spent most of her time snuggled in her cozy, cat cave. She'd venture out later in the day, but retreated when strangers were present. Just as Lemon's mobility has improved, her confidence among us has also grown, albeit more slowly. She has a fantastic purr and loves being petted. Added to the free roam in April, Lemon did well with the other cats, but can sometimes be a bully, especially if they are butting in on her time with you! Since adding a bunch of crazy, playful teenager kittens, she has chilled out again and we often find 1 or 3 of them cuddled up with her! If you can't find her, look under a blanker. She somehow gets herself "under the covers" like she's tucked herself in bed. Lemon is absolutely adorable! Lemon's $70 adoption fee helps cover the cost of her spay, vaccinations, worming, monthly flea and heart worm preventive, FIV/FeLV tests, microchip and care while at CCHS.
