Ohio SPCA & Humane Society

Ohio SPCA & Humane Society The Ohio SPCA & Humane Society is a 501(c)3 organization that is funded solely by donations, grants, and bequests.

The HSOAC is now under the management of the Ohio SPCA. After struggling to serve the needs of the animals and the community for the past several years, the former Board of Directors of the Humane Society of Allen County made the decision to turn over the operation and functions of the humane society to the Ohio SPCA. This decision was based on the belief that the Ohio SPCA was the right organizat

ion to take the humane society into the future. Over the course of the next several months the humane society will be restructured during a transition period with many changes taking place. The mission of the humane society will be fulfilled with existing programs being strengthened and expanded and new programs being added. The Ohio SPCA is dedicated to helping animals through the education of adults and children, the elimination of overpopulation, and enforcing zero tolerance of animal cruelty. The Ohio SPCA has already trained four humane officers to respond to reports of animal abuse and neglect and enforce animal cruelty laws under the Ohio Revised Code. The Ohio SPCA will continue to rescue animals across the state, but Allen County animals and residents will receive help through county priority programs. It is our vision that the animal shelter become a family destination for people from everywhere to connect with animals of all kinds. As goals are reached, we believe that Allen County will become a shining star and the best place for animals in the State of Ohio.

Meet Lily! 🐾

Lily is a beautiful 1-year-old DSH tabby and white female with a story of resilience and a heart full of love.

When Lily first came to us, she was an injured stray with suspected head trauma. She was thoroughly evaluated by a veterinarian and has since been cleared for adoption. While she does have a slight "head bob," it doesn't slow her down one bit! Lily is happy, healthy, and living her best life.

What truly makes Lily special is her personality. She is one of the sweetest cats you'll ever meet and loves attention from her people.

✨ Spayed
✨ Vaccinated
✨ Dewormed
✨ Microchipped
✨ FELV/FIV Negative

Adoption Fee: $60

Lily has overcome a difficult start in life and is now ready for a loving forever home where she can be cherished for the amazing cat she is.

Meet Peter 🐾
This sweet 3-year-old Pitbull is looking for a special home, one that understands his unique needs and can offer the patience and love he deserves.

Peter is deaf and has some visual impairment, which means he navigates the world a little differently. Despite his challenges, he’s a loving and resilient pup with so much potential in the right environment.

Peter was recently returned to our adoption center after his adopter’s other dog became jealous, creating an unstable situation at home. Because of this, Peter will thrive best in a calm, structured home without cats and ideally as the only pet, or with a very easygoing companion.

He will need time to adjust to new surroundings, but with gentle guidance and understanding, Peter will make a loyal and affectionate friend.

✅ Neutered
✅ Dewormed
✅ Microchipped
✅ Vaccinated
✅ Heartworm negative

Lovely Hermione is a 10-year-old feline who came to the Ohio SPCA & Humane Society in January 2025 after her previous owner could no longer care for her. She’s been patiently waiting ever since , far too long for such a kind, gentle soul. 💛

Hermione is the picture of calm contentment. Her favorite hobbies? Sunbathing, lounging on a soft bed, and quietly keeping you company while you go about your day. She doesn’t ask for much, just a peaceful home, a warm window, and someone who will love her for the rest of her golden years.

Hermione’s Ideal Home:
Quiet and calm household
Good with other cats
Loves sunbeams, cozy naps, and gentle affection

🚨🐾 EMERGENCY MEDICAL CASE: DAISY 🐾🚨
This afternoon, a tiny kitten we have named Daisy arrived at our back door in desperate need of help.
Daisy is severely emaciated, appears to be experiencing neurological issues, and has concerning abnormalities involving her eyes. At this time, the cause of her condition is unknown, but it was immediately clear that she required emergency veterinary care.
With no local veterinary clinics open, we rushed Daisy to West Central Ohio Veterinary Emergency Services in Lima. Emergency care is significantly more expensive than routine veterinary visits, but waiting until regular business hours was simply not an option. Daisy needed help now.
Cases like Daisy's are why your support is so important. When animals arrive suffering, injured, or in critical condition, we must act immediately regardless of the cost.
If you would like to help with Daisy's emergency medical expenses, please consider making a donation:
🌐 Donate Online: ohiospca.org/donate
📍 Ohio SPCA & Humane Society
3606 Elida Road
Lima, OH 45807
Every donation, share, and kind word helps us continue providing lifesaving care to animals like Daisy.
Please keep this sweet kitten in your thoughts and share her story so we can give her the best chance possible.
❤️ Thank you for supporting the animals who need us most.

MEET SHYSTIE MALONE

Loyal. Loved. Waiting for her second chance.

Shystie Malone came to us through our Safe Boarding Program, a program designed to help families facing hardship, such as homelessness or house fires, by providing temporary care for their pets at no cost.

Her mom loved her very much and did everything she could, but after months of boarding, she was unfortunately unable to secure housing and made the heartbreaking decision to leave Shystie in our care so she could have a chance at a stable future.

Now, this sweet 9-year-old girl is ready to find her forever home.

About Shystie

She has known love, and she deserves to feel it again.
At 9 years old, Shystie is looking for a calm, comfortable home where she can relax, be cherished, and enjoy her golden years surrounded by people who won’t let her go.

Shystie’s Details

✔️ Spayed
✔️ Up to date on vaccines
✔️ Microchipped
✔️ Dewormed
✔️ Heartworm negative

Why She’s Special

Shystie isn’t just another dog, she’s a reminder of how strong the bond between people and their pets can be, even in the hardest times.

Now she just needs someone to give her a new beginning.

Meet Roofina!

This lovely lady is around 6 years old and has quite the story to tell. Roofina came to the Ohio SPCA & Humane Society in a rather unconventional way , we believe she was dumped on our property.

At first, she wanted nothing to do with coming inside. Instead, she earned her name by patrolling our grounds from the roof! For months, our team set traps and worked patiently to win her trust. She was too smart of any humane traps.

We soon discovered something special , Roofina loves dogs! She would often approach dogs being walked around the property, eager to hang out. Eventually, with some patience (and tasty treats), one of our amazing volunteers safely brought her inside.

Now, Roofina is thriving! She is:
✨ Spayed
✨ Dewormed
✨ Vaccinated
✨ FELV/FIV negative
✨ Microchipped

She currently lives in our roaming room, where she enjoys spending time with her many feline friends. Roofina would make a wonderful companion for someone who appreciates a cat with spirit, charm, and a love for canine buddies.

12:51PM UPDATE: we unfortunately are going to have to close the adoption center. We thought the issue was resolved, but unfortunately, we are without water again. We apologize for the inconvenience.

🚨 UPDATE FROM THE OHIO SPCA & HUMANE SOCIETY ADOPTION CENTER 🚨
Unfortunately, we are still experiencing issues with our water line. While we believed the water had been restored this morning, we have since learned that the problem has not yet been resolved.
We would like to extend a huge thank you to Flying Fur Pet Salon for allowing us to utilize their water so that we can continue meeting the basic daily needs of the animals in our care. Their generosity has been greatly appreciated during this unexpected situation.
At this time, there is a strong possibility that the Adoption Center, located at 3606 Elida Rd., Lima, OH 45807, will remain closed for the remainder of today. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to resolve this issue.
We will continue to keep the public updated as more information becomes available. We are hopeful that repairs will be completed soon and that we will be operating normally tomorrow.
Thank you for your continued support of the Ohio SPCA & Humane Society and the animals who depend on us. ❤️
