🐾 Meet Phoenix: A Gentle Soul Seeking a Quiet Haven 🐾

Phoenix is a true "wallflower" who prefers the quiet moments in life. The bustling activity at the foundation can be a bit overwhelming right now, so he chooses to spend his time in our smaller kitten room. You might catch a glimpse of him lounging next to another kitty before he retreats to the safety of one of the wall cubicles, his little sanctuary.

Phoenix, a 4-year-old adult, would thrive in a quiet, low-traffic home with another feline for companionship. His ideal adopter is someone who understands that earning trust takes time. Patience and love bring incredible rewards with a shy cat. We are looking for a special adopter ready to provide the patience and understanding Phoenix needs to feel safe and loved.

If you believe you have the quiet home and gentle spirit to win Phoenix's heart, we would love to hear from you! Please message us to learn more or submit an application. https://hancockhumane.org/adopt-form.php

Phoenix is waiting for his hero. Could that be you?

Macaroni has been waiting patiently for her new forever home. She was rescued as a kitten in 2024 and has grown up here at the foundation. She and her look-alike sister, Ravioli, are the last of the Pasta siblings to be adopted. They would love to have a family to call their own. Do you have a place for a sweet kitty, or two?

About Us

The Hancock County Humane Foundation (formerly Hancock County Animal Shelter Foundation) was established in 1992 after a county resident visited the shelter and felt we as a county could do better for our animals.

Starting out in a small windowless building, the Foundation secured a better facility for the animals and worked to raise the save rate for our county's animals by implementing new programs in adoption, fostering, spay and neuter and community education.

For more than 20 years, the Foundation worked towards a goal of not killing animals for space and convenience. Instead, we were able to provide veterinary and behavioral care for dogs and cats for issues that would have gotten them killed in the old shelter model, reserving euthanasia for only those cases where an animal was suffering needlessly or was a danger to others with no hope for rehabilitation.
