‼️🚨 NEW MATCHING ALERT-- This Is Your Last Chance to Double Your Impact 🚨‼️

As the clock counts down to a new year, we are all left to reflect on our experiences in 2025; the wins, the losses, and lessons we learned. At HSHC, we exhaust every effort to uphold our mission to give every animal a second chance, but we can't always save them.

All too often, animals are brought to our doorstep starving, abused, and neglected... Too often, they come to us completely broken. But it is always the stories of pets like Leela, Allison, and Honey that remind us of the incredible resilience of pets.

Year after year, we are able to save thousands of animals through our Survivor Program... but the number of pets who come through our doors in need of emergency medical care is ever increasing.

Your donations support so many pets, and it’s not too late to DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT! Thanks to a small group of generous donors, your donations will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $5,000 until midnight tonight!

As we wrap up 2025 and enter the new year, you can help animals like Leela and Allison find their second chance. Let's finish the year strong!

🚨THIS JUST IN! For the next 2 Hours Your End of Year Donations Will be MATCHED Dollar-For-Dollar Up to $5,000 🚨

Did you miss the chance to have your donation matched this morning? Well, it's not too late to DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT! Thanks to a very generous donor your donations will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $5,000-- but only for the next 2 hours‼️

Today is your last chance this year to help us give so many animals the medication and care they need, just like Thomas here!

Dropped off at our shelter as a stray at just six-week-old, Thomas arrived at our doorstep covered in fleas and suffering from a viral infection that has caused him significant loss of vision in both eyes, and will affect him for the rest of his life. 💔 The odds were stacked against him, but under the continued care of HSHC and his amazing foster, Thomas has begun to thrive and will soon be ready to find his forever home. 🐾💕

We need your help to save more kittens just like him. ➡️ Donate today at https://www.hamiltonhumane.com/endofyeargiving and help us keep giving second chances to animals like Thomas!

We are so sad to say goodbye to Bentley 🐾💔

Blind, deaf, and struggling with arthritis, 14-year-old Bentley was abandoned at our shelter just before Christmas. We knew he might not have long, but as always, we were determined to give him a second chance, no matter his age.

So close to Christmas, we worried that Bentley would spend the holidays alone, but thanks to Jenn Carolan, one of our amazing fosters, Bentley's last Christmas was filled with nothing but love. It is because of fosters like her that we are able to provide so many abandoned seniors with the best care until the very end.

Bentley is not the first senior pet to receive end of life care from our shelter. Animals are coming to us older than ever before and at the point in life when time might be limited. And while we strive to provide them with all the care that they need, we can not help them without the support of our community.

Every dollar makes a difference in the lives of animals just like him, who are still waiting for their second chance. So as we enter this new year with new hope, we ask that you make a donation in Bentley's memory, to bring a brighter future for senior pets just like him.

🐾 Donate today at https://www.hamiltonhumane.com/endofyeargiving

Rest in heaven, Bentley. And have peace in the knowledge that with the help of our community, we will take care of the pets who come after you.

🚨 AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT & CEO | End of Year Donations Will be MATCHED up to $10,000 for the next 2 hours! 🚨

Dear Friends,

As the holiday season draws to a close, we invite you to make a life-saving difference for the abandoned, neglected and displaced animals in our care. We have weathered another difficult year with record numbers of neglected and abandoned animals making their ways to us for sanctuary. Your support has allowed us to give them a chance to love, and be loved. The Humane Society for Hamilton County is a place of hope because of you.

It is only through your continued support that we can give the ones arriving today, and tomorrow, and every day after that--the same fighting chance.

And there's more wonderful news! As we approach the end of the year, please know how deeply grateful we are for the annual support we receive from supporters like you, which represents over 80% of our annual operating budget each year. That's why we are incredibly excited to announce our new, Annual Operating Support Donor Wall designed to honor these critical gifts that pay our bills. This beautiful wall, located in the main walkway of the facility, features the names of donors who have contributed a minimum of $10,000 (in one gift or given collectively throughout the calendar year) based on your level of giving. And, it's not too late for you to be included in the January 2026 plaque installation!

I know there are a lot of requests in your inbox right now, so I am hoping you might have something earmarked for the thousands of Hamilton County and Hoosier animals who are depending on us--especially with this incredible matching opportunity.

On behalf of our team and the animals we serve, we thank you for your support and wish you a very healthy and Happy New Year.

With gratitude,
Rebecca Stevens

Buddy, Binky, Oakes, Mocha, Piper, and Sir Gus know what it's like to be left behind and overlooked, but every day they try not to lose hope. 💔 These cats and dogs have waited for so long to start their next chapter, so to help them out, we've made them a part of our Home for the Holiday's Adoption Special.

❤️ Adoption fees for these featured pets have been waived.
❤️ Adopt one of these featured dogs, & get a FREE customized training package from Paws & Play Dog Resort & Training Center tailored just for them!
❤️ When you adopt any of the cats below, PetSuites Indianapolis - Fishers is offering a certificate for 5 nights of FREE boarding.

Please consider opening your heart and home to one of these incredible animals before another year passes them by.📍 Visit us today to meet them or share this post to help us find their forever families. hamiltonhumane.com/home-for-the-holidays

Time for some good news! A few lucky animals found homes yesterday, and we love knowing they’re settling in with their new families. 💕

Meet Tiny and Raton! A perfectly matched, must stay together duo looking for a forever home that wants double the love and twice the sweetness! 💕

Tiny is 5, Raton is 6, and these two small dogs are true partners in everything. They’re bonded and do life side by side. Say “go lay down” and they both trot right into their crate together. 🥹 They are happy little homebodies who enjoy grazing on their meals and relaxing together.

Raton enjoys meeting new people and recently showed off his best behavior at the groomer. Tiny is more of a “let me get comfortable first” kind of girl. She takes her cues from Raton and warms up quickly once she sees him getting attention.

Tiny and Raton are looking for someone who understands how special bonded pairs are and is ready to welcome two hearts into one home. Come meet them and see their connection for yourself. Some pairs are simply meant to stay together, and these two are proof!

🐈🐾 Meet Sir Gus: HSHC's Tinsel & Tails Superstar Senior 🐾🐈
12-Year-Old Cat for Adoption | Need's A Home for the Holidays

They say an old dog can't learn new tricks, but this senior cat sure can! Just look at Sir Gus strutting the runway on his leash. So dapper, so well mannered, so friendly... and yet he's still waited over a year to find his forever home. 💔

Sir Gus is a friendly, low-key cat who can't decide what he loves more - affectionate snuggles or cozy naps. How does Sir Gus measure up on the perfect cat checklist?

🐾 Excellent litterbox manners? Check.
🐾 Outgoing and affectionate? Absolutely.
🐾 Looking dashing in gray and white? Always.

All he needs now is you. 💕✨

To help him find his forever home we've made him one of our featured pets for this year's Home for the Holiday's adoption special. His adoption fee has been waived, and he will go home with a 5-night free pet boarding certificate from PetSuites Indianapolis - Fishers.

One thing to note about Sir Gus. He has diabetes, but with a special diet and regular insulin, his condition is well controlled. His foster mom reports he’s a pro at his routine and would love to show his forever person just how easy it can be.

Sir Gus is a 10/10 lovable feline, so if you’re ready to open your heart to a sweet, seasoned companion, he is ready to meet you! To meet Sir Gus, fill out an adoption application at hshcadoptions.com/application, to schedule a meet and greet.
