Our Fred Meyer Food Drive is coming to an end, and we need your help finishing strong!

Every donation of pet food helps fill hungry bellies and makes a difference for the dogs and cats at Benton-Franklin Humane Society. 🐶🐱

A bag of food may seem like a small gesture, but to the animals depending on us, it means so much more. ❤️

🛒 There’s still time to donate! Stop by Fred Meyer and help us stock our shelves for the animals in our care.

A huge thank you to Fred Meyer and our amazing community for coming together to support shelter pets!

🐾 Let’s make these last few days count!

💔 **Meet Lulu Belle** 💔

Every dog who comes to our shelter has a story, but Lulu Belle’s is especially heartbreaking.

A few years ago, Lulu came to us as a stray and was adopted into a loving home. Her mom cared for her so well, even after Lulu was diagnosed with cancer and had lumps removed. Then tragedy struck: Lulu’s mom passed away, and Lulu has found herself back at the shelter.

She’s heartbroken and pacing, confused about why she’s here again. Our hearts are breaking for her, too. 🐾

We’re looking for a **hospice foster** who can give Lulu Belle a quiet, loving home and comfort for whatever time she has left. **BFHS covers her food, medical care, and provides 24/7 support while she’s in foster care.**

Interested in opening your home to Lulu? Please contact our foster coordinator at [email protected] ❤️

Please share to help Lulu find the loving home she deserves. 🏡

Happy Monday everyone!
Don't you love it when things just work out perfectly?
Like Papa John's family pizza night falling on International Doge Day!
Otherwise known as "Do Only Good Everyday"

Kabosu, the dog behind the original doge meme, was rescued from an animal shelter when the puppy mill she was at shut down and was greatly adored by her owner.

What started as a meme became a movement to honor acts of kindness, animal care, creative expression, connecting as a community.

We would love to see our community show up for the animals this International Doge Day! If you order pizza using our code BFHS20 you get 20% off your order AND 20% of your order goes directly to BFHS to assist the animals!

A day off of cooking, good food, and helping animals? We love it!

🦜 Polly wants a.... best friend?!

Meet Polly the Parrot! This quirky boy is 4 parts cuddle bug and 1 part eccentric explorer.
Polly firmly believes that the best things in life involve cuddles and free rides around the house.

Some cats just have it all...
✨️ Captivating eyes
✨️ A stunning and glossy coat
✨️ Questionable bathroom sink habits

But, hey, it's just all part of what makes Polly the Parrot special!
And here's a little secret 🙊
TODAY IS HIS BIRTHDAY!

Our handsome boy is officially 1 year old today.
Our cattery staff totally didn't shed a tear switching his age from kitten to adult. (She did.)

The best birthday gift we could all ask for is a home for Polly!

Do you have space on your shoulder and in your heart for a true bestie? Make his, and your, day extra special and come meet him!

He is ready to meet some new friends and find his family at Benton-Franklin Humane Society Tuesday-Sunday 11am-4pm.

🐾 Our Mission Will Always Be About the Animals! ❤️

We wanted to take a moment to kindly clarify something regarding a photo taken at our booth during today’s Boo Bash event.

The flags visible in the background of this photo were part of a neighboring booth and were not associated with Benton-Franklin Humane Society.

At BFHS, we respect that everyone has their own beliefs, opinions, and perspectives. However, our mission has always been, and will always be, about the animals. We do not bring politics or personal viewpoints into our events or our mission.

Our booth is a place where everyone is welcome, brought together by one common purpose: helping animals in need and giving them the love, care, and second chances they deserve. 🐶🐱❤️

We are incredibly grateful for our community and the continued support that allows us to do what we love most — making a difference, one paw at a time.

At the end of the day, it’s not about what divides us. It’s about the animals who bring us together. 🐾❤️
