Remember Parker? He was adopted by our team member, David. Little did anyone know this tiny furball was actually a CEO in disguise. Now he runs the household with an iron paw—especially over Trump, the giant canine pictured here. Parker meows, Trump obeys. Classic power move, Parker. Classic! Just look at that boss face! 😹

Hey hooman friends!

It’s me, your favorite four-legged tail-wagger from the shelter! Just popping in to remind you that the animal shelter opens at NOON today — that's when the doors open and the belly rubs begin!

If you've been thinking about adding a furry best friend to your life (ahem, like me), today’s the perfect day to come sniff around. We’ve got pawsome pups, cuddly cats, and enough wagging tails to make your heart melt.

So mark your calendars, set your alarms, or bark at your humans until they bring you here. We’ll be waiting!

See you at noon!
Tail wags and slobbery kisses,
Your future best friend, Nova Lee

Update on Moana from her incredible foster mom!

"She is doing well! She has such a funny personality and makes me laugh daily. She now runs and jumps up on my lap and falls asleep. She absolutely LOVES toys and she carries them around. She runs through the house like a cinder block and chases anything that moves. Still very much loves food and she's super talkative for breakfast and supper. She's quirky for sure but it makes me love her even more because of her personality. It makes me super sad no one has shown interest in her. She would be perfect for an older couple! I'll attach a few pictures."

Moana is up for adoption and her fee is partially sponsored making her $35 to adopt! Stop in and fill out an application!

Meet Evelyn, a charming conversationalist with a heart as warm as her purr. This adult feline exudes a sweetness that permeates any room she enters, her friendly nature making her a beloved resident at the shelter. Evelyn's long hair is a testament to her love for grooming, and she enjoys nothing more than a good brush from a friendly hand. Her vocalizations are music to the ears, a symphony of meows, purrs, and trills that express her feelings. Evelyn's sociability and affectionate nature make her a wonderful companion. She would love nothing more than to share her sweetness and warmth with a forever family. Adopt Evelyn, and gain not just a pet, but a friend who will fill your home with love and conversation.

"Kitten Season" 2025 is well underway, unfortunately. 😬

What should you do if you find a newborn kitten or litter of kittens outdoors?

Step 1: Please resist the urge to scoop up the kitten(s) because that could do more harm than good.

Instead, watch from a distance and wait for Mom to return.

STEP 2: If Mom DID come back …
Great! If you want to help by offering food and shelter, make sure this doesn't cause trouble for the cat family. Extra food will fuel Mom's milk production — BUT put it at least 20 feet from the kitten nest. If food is too close, it will attract other animals, and Mom will move her kittens to a safer place. If Mom doesn't have a great weatherproof place for the kittens, offer a weatherproof cat shelter — again, not too close to the current nest. Let Mom choose whether to use it or not. By offering resources without scaring Mom into moving her family, you'll know where the kittens are when they're weaned (6ish weeks to pull to help transition to canned kitten food and socialize) and old enough to be safely trapped for taming and adoption at 12 weeks of age.

🚩And, most importantly, don't forget to trap and spay Mom the same day you pull the kittens!

Have a plan. Schedule her TNR appointment right when the kittens are born, so it's scheduled, and call to get the kittens on every rescue and shelter intake list that same day as well. Do not delay. Mom can go into heat when her kittens are 2 weeks old, so do not wait. The clock is ticking to save lives.

STEP 3: If Mom is truly NOT feeding and caring for her kittens, then please intervene -- https://www.kittenlady.org/age.

Wabash County Animal Shelter 101

We have compiled some important information about the Wabash County Animal Shelter (WCAS) that seems to be unknown or misunderstood by the public.

We are a Limited Admittance Shelter. We are no longer a Kill shelter. Let us explain why. In a Kill shelter, perfectly healthy loving adoptable animals are put down to make room for another animal to have a temporary place to stay. It might be your loving lost animal that gets put down so another animal can take its place in the shelter.
