The Capital Area Humane Society (CAHS) is a non-profit, animal-welfare organization in Lansing, MI. More than 10,000 animals come through our doors each year.

At the Capital Area Humane Society, we are passionate about animals. Our wide variety of programs and services exist to serve the pets and people of Mid-Michigan. We have an excellent staff of nearly 40 animal lovers who see each adoption as a victory. More than 2,500 volunteers devote 32,000+ hours of time each year to ensure our animals are properly socialized, exercised, and loved. The shelter receives no tax dollars or government funding and relies on the generosity of donors to help us provide love, food, shelter, and medical care to homeless and abandoned pets. We are a local, private, and independent animal welfare organization founded in Lansing in 1936 and all donations and gifts directed to the CAHS are used to assist the animals in the greater Lansing community.

Looks like Rebel has a new job in weather forecasting! He stopped by to help Stevie Fur-win a.k.a. Meteorologist Katie Nickolaou, with this week’s Friday Furcast, and we think he did a pretty pawsome job!

Rebel may not know much about predicting the weather, but he knows a thing or two about bringing sunshine wherever he goes! We think he deserves a spot on the weather team full-time.

Thanks, Katie, for letting Rebel join you for some Friday fun!

And don't forget, the best forecast of all is a forever home! Could Rebel be the sunshine your life is missing?
