Meet Diamond & Her Gemstone Kittens! šŸ’ŽšŸ¾

Diamond is a beautiful mama cat who has been through a lot. This brave stray found shelter on a kind personā€™s porch, where she gave birth to her five precious babiesā€”Amethyst, Sapphire, Emerald, Jasper, and Opalā€”on a cold day. Despite her rough start, Diamond has been a devoted and loving mother, making sure her kittens are safe, warm, and well cared for.

Her little gems are as stunning as their names suggest! These black-and-white beauties are growing into playful, curious, and affectionate kittens who will soon be ready to find their forever homes. With their mamaā€™s sweet nature and strong spirit, theyā€™re sure to make wonderful companions. They wonā€™t be ready to go home for about a month, but they are eligible for pre-adoption.

Could you be the perfect match for one of these precious gems? šŸ’–

Weā€™ve got a big event happening this morningā€”Aquamarine has just gone into labor! She started giving birth shortly after our staff arrived, and weā€™re all cheering her on as she welcomes her little ones into the worldšŸ„°

How many kittens do you think sheā€™ll have? Our guess is three or four, but weā€™ll have to wait and see! Stay tuned for updates and send some good vibes to this brave mama.

Weā€™ll be sure to share more news (and adorable kitten photos) soon!ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø

Meet McGriddle šŸ„ž

This young adult feline wandered in as a stray, so her past is a bit of a mystery. Was she a secret agent? A catnip smuggler? A former pancake chef? We may never know, but what we do know is that sheā€™s as sweet as syrup and ready to butter you up with love!

McGriddle gets along well with other cats and would probably be just fine with a calm dog. Sheā€™s also great with kids, making her the purrfect addition to any family looking to add to their breakfast club.

If youā€™re ready to start every morning with McGriddle by your side, call 989-356-4794 or visit www.huronhumanesocietyinc.org to learn more about adopting her.

Meet Amazonite! šŸ–¤šŸ¾

This 8-month-old Australian Shepherd/Heeler mix has a heart as big as his ears! This little guy (28lbs) loves kids, dogs, cats, and pretty much every farm animal you can think of (except chickens ā€” heā€™s convinced theyā€™re a delicious snack - like the dollop of chicken Churu on his nose). Amazoniteā€™s ideal home will need to understand herding/cattle breeds and their tendencies. He loves belly rubs, playtime, and making friends, whether they have two legs or four. He may come off shy at first, but becomes your best friend in a matter of minutes! Yes the perfect companion for any farm or family ā€” just, you know, no poultry parties for him!

Come and meet your new best friend today at Huron Humane Society of Alpena.

Call us at 989-356-4794 message our page for more information.

We are so grateful for the incredible support from some amazing young people in our community!šŸ¾

In the first photo, we have Lexi and Ben from Thunder Bay Junior Highā€™s National Junior Honor Society proudly holding braided dog toys made by their group ā€” our pups are going to love them!

The second photo features Zyla, who went above and beyond by using her own money to purchase a generous amount of donations for our shelter animals. Her kindness and compassion truly shine!

Itā€™s inspiring to see the next generation making such a positive impact. Thank you, Lexi, Ben, NJHS, Zyla, and everyone involved, for your thoughtfulness and support ā€” our animals (and all of us) appreciate you more than words can say! šŸ’›šŸ¶šŸ±

šŸ¾ADOPTED WITH HIS BROTHERšŸ¾

Onyxā€™s world changed in an instant. After tragically losing his owner, this sweet 7-8-year-old boy is searching for a new family to love him.

Heā€™s a beautiful black cat with extra toes on his paws, making him a polydactyl! Though shy in the shelter, Onyx has a gentle heart and just needs time to feel safe again. He has lived with other cats before and could likely adjust to a calm dog(s) with a proper introduction.

Onyx deserves a second chance at a loving home. Could you be the one to give it to him?

Moonstone has been adopted! Monsoon is still searching for her forever homeā¤ļø

Looking for some entertainment that doesnā€™t require a subscription? Meet Moonstone & Monsoon, two dilute calico divas ready to take over your home (and your heart).

šŸ©·Moonstone ā€“ Fluffy, fabulous, and sweeter than your grandmaā€™s cookies. This longhaired beauty gets along with other cats and is ready to grace your home with her elegance. Dogs? Who knows! She refuses to comment. She would do well with children.

šŸ©·Monsoon ā€“ The life of the party and the playroomā€™s resident goofball. Sheā€™s a professional lounge artist, a chatterbox, and a certified silly goose. If youā€™ve ever wanted a cat who keeps you updated on her daily thoughts (whether you asked or not), Monsoon is your girl!

ā¤ļøADOPTEDā¤ļø

For eight years, Corndogā€™s world was small and safe, spent by the side of the only person he ever lovedā€”an elderly woman who was his everything. Now, through no fault of his own, Corndog is searching for a new home.

This sweet but scared little dachshund doesnā€™t understand why his life has changed. Heā€™s confused and heartbroken, and he needs someone special to show him love again. Corndog is a one-person dogā€”heā€™s never been around kids, doesnā€™t trust men, and isnā€™t a fan of other dogs. His ideal home is female only. Heā€™s also battling allergies that require a prescription diet, and he may need medications or injections in the future.

But under all that fear is a dog who just wants to feel safe again. He needs a patient, gentle soul willing to give him the time and love he deserves. Could that be you?

Please, if you can open your heart and home to Corndog, call 989-356-4794 or visit www.huronhumanesocietyinc.org. Even if you canā€™t adopt, sharing his story could help him find the miracle he so desperately needs.

Corndog is waiting. Letā€™s not let him wait too long. šŸ’”šŸ¾

ā¤ļøADOPTEDā¤ļø

Attention, peasantsā€”I mean, potential adopters! My name is McMuffin, and I am a refined, sophisticated lady of a certain age (a senior, if we must be specific). Iā€™ve already been spayed, so my days of wild kitten antics are long behind me. These days, I prefer the finer things in life: a warm sunbeam, a soft bed, and my wet food. I love to snuggle with my humans and I am a purr machine!

I tolerate other cats and small dogsā€”as long as they respect my personal bubble. No drama, no nonsense. If they can mind their business, weā€™ll get along just fine. My ideal home is calm, quiet, and full of comfy napping spots. If youā€™re looking for a low-maintenance queen who will grace your home with her regal presence, Iā€™m your girl.

Think youā€™re worthy of my company? Call 989-356-4794 or visit www.huronhumanesocietyinc.org to apply. But be warnedā€”once you meet me, youā€™ll be smitten.

Huron Humane Society, Inc.

The Huron Humane Society is Alpena Countyā€™s no-kill animal shelter serving the community since 1982. HHS finds loving homes for unwanted, homeless, abandoned, and abused dogs and cats and helps to educate the community about responsible pet ownership.

All dogs and cats adopted from the Huron Humane Society are up-to-date on vaccines, have received appropriate preventative treatments, and are either altered or come with a certificate for a free spay/neuter operation. In addition, adopters receive a certificate for a free veterinary visit for the adopted animal and a bag of Science Diet food.

Huron Humane Society is proudly affiliated with the Bissell Pet Foundation, with the common mission to help control the pet population through adoption, advocacy, and spay/neuter initiatives.

Open Monday through Saturday from 11:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., the Huron Humane Society is located at 3510 Woodward Avenue, about 1.5 miles past Northern Lights Arena in Alpena.
