Charlevoix Area Humane Society

Charlevoix Area Humane Society An independent non-profit no-kill animal shelter serving Charlevoix County since 1974
(81)

OUR PURPOSE

We advocate for the humane treatment of animals by initiating community awareness of pet care, owner responsibility, animal population control, and prevention of animal cruelty. We seek the return of lost animals to their owner, locate suitable homes for adoptable animals, and foster animals with special needs. We will set an example for all, providing humane education and special hum

ane programs to reach and guide the community. We will efficiently use our animal shelter as a safe haven to provide care, treatment, and protection of lost, abused, injured, surrendered, and/or abandoned animals.

Meet our Pet of the Week, Duke!

This big headed fella is Duke! Duke was found wandering as a stray in really rough shape. He was missing most of the fur on his back end and clearly hadn't been given the love he deserves in quite some time. A good samaritan brought Duke in to us where we were able to work on getting him on medications to help his skin, as well as getting him vaccinated and flea free. He is doing so much better now and his hair is even beginning to grow back in, we couldn't be more pleased with his improvement.
Duke is a big lover who always wants to be around his people, he is very polite on a leash and could be walked by just about anyone. Despite his appearance upon arrival, we do believe Duke had a home at one point because he seems to know some basic commands and even seems to be housetrained. He also seems to enjoy other dog's company and would likely do well with cats. Duke is a very gentle boy and would do well in almost any home. He does have a bit of separation anxiety so he would do best in a home where he would not be left for long periods of time. Whether you're a "big" dog lover or not, Duke is sure to win your heart as soon as you meet him, please consider adopting or fostering this handsome boy, he sure deserves it!
(The last photo is how this poor guy looked upon arrival)

Meet this week's Pet of the Week, Jade!

This darling gal is Jade. Jade originally came to us as a stray and was adopted, she was unfortunately recently returned due to her zest for adventure. Jade is a very smart girl but will take herself for a run given the opportunity. Jade is very motherly and patient so she gets along with almost every dog she meets, we even have some of our less mannered puppies spend their outdoor time with her so she can teach them her ways. Jade is used to children of all sizes and would fit well in just about any family, we think she would do just fine with cats as well. Stop by and meet this sweet girl if you are ready to fall in love!

***This cat is not at our shelter***
Kiki is a calico cat who is good natured, loving and affectionate, though a bit reclusive if things are too noisy, until she gets used to the comings and goings of a new situation. She is good at blending in and getting along with others. When young, Kiki was declawed, so her paws are tender, and she seems to fare best when lowered to the ground when someone is done holding her. Because of the declawing, she doesn’t jump up on things, but keeps to the ground. Her age is 14, and she is trim and acts healthy and enjoys interacting and going outside when supervised. She is a friendly and peaceful kitty with immense love and purring talents. She does work well as a lap cat, too, and is friendly with the dog that comes to visit. Please contact Christina at (231) 838-1seven3nine for more information.

Miss Coco (aka coco bean, coco puff and now coco melon) found her perfect family today! Coco has been with us for a few months now and was adopted once but quickly found her way back to us due to no fault or her own. This sweet girl has become a staff and volunteer favorite and we are so excited for her new adventures in life. Coco was so excited for her new home she could hardly sit still, and we think her new parents are pretty darn excited too!

We love getting photos from our volunteers! Azazle, Jade and Janice had some fun in the sun today. Our dogs love getting out and going for walks and even just playing in the yard with a human.
Volunteers are so important in shelter life, if you haven't volunteered but have been thinking about it, now is the time. Look at those smiles! 🐶

Meet our Pet of the Week, Snowball!

This cutie patootie is Snowball. Snowball is considered a special needs dog as she is totally deaf, but she doesn't let a little thing like that get in her way! Snowball is full of spunky sweetness and has wonderful manners. Snowball was originally adopted from us several years ago but was found running as a stray in another county and was never picked up. After that Snowball found herself back at CAHS in search of a lasting forever home. Snowball has won all of our hearts over and loves spending time in our front office greeting anyone who enters. She loves to sit in chairs or on our front bench staring out the window. She loves everyone that she meets and we just can't believe she is still with us. Snowball is a bit cautious of other dogs and we think she would be fine with cats. She is also house trained. Open your home to this little lady and we promise she will warm your heart!
Snowball is currently in a wonderful foster home, but still in search of a permanent place to call her own.

The Charlevoix Area Humane Society will be embarking on a major campaign to address the feral cat colonies in Charlevoix County with a Trap Neuter and Release program this late summer early fall.
Here are a couple links to help better educate everyone on the campaign.
First we will need to identify the Cat Colonies in the region (We know of many of them, just don't want to miss any).
You can call and let us know if you know of any.
