Meet Evan and Pinkie. These two had very different paths that led them to our rescue, but they’ve formed a lasting friendship while here. It took many months and lots of volunteer patience but Evan has finally come out of his shell! His best buddy Pinkie has been a big help as well. ❤️Do you have room in your heart and home for this bonded pair? They do great with other cats and are untested with dogs. Online applications are available at www.FranklinCountyHumaneSociety.com. Thanks for sharing! #smallbutmighty🐾

Did you know….?
Declawing a cat involves the amputation of the last bone of each toe. If performed on a human being, it would be like cutting off each finger at the last knuckle. 😣 Declawed cats often suffer other negative side effects such as litter box issues and the development of arthritis in later years.
It is an unnecessary surgery that provides no medical benefit to the cat. There are many alternatives! Pet parents can train their cats to use their claws in a way that allows everyone in the household to live together happily. Scratching posts should be introduced at an early age. Nails can be trimmed periodically just like in our canine friends.
Thanks for sharing, (and Nigel, the kitten in this video IS up for adoption) 😉

We were recently contacted by a concerned animal advocate about a goose in need of help. It seems to have fishing line/lure wrapped around its leg. It can fly and swim but it cannot walk correctly. The same person who reported the condition to us also called the DNR and was told they’d have to let nature take its course, and they could not help.
We feel strongly that this goose’s situation was caused by humans, and as such we need to help if we can. If we can capture the goose we can and will get it to a rehabber to help it in hopes to return it back to the lake ASAP. We know it won’t be easy, but feel we should at least give it a try. Anyone have experience with this, have a connection to someone who does?
The location is Brookville Lake, there is a picnic/fishing area on the left along the road that takes you to the beach.
Let’s talk kittens…”Kitten Season” is ramping up. That means shelters and rescues will be inundated with newly born litters of kittens. We’re up to three litters in just the past week. You will also begin seeing posts for kittens for sale or free kittens. As with anything in life, there’s no such thing as “free”. If you’re considering a cute, cuddly kitten, please do your homework. Kittens should ideally be with momma until 12 weeks of age for physical and behavioral development. A new kitten should be vetted before being introduced to other cats in your household. Kittens should have a series of shots for their health. Most importantly, kittens need to be spayed or neutered ASAP. Females can become pregnant as young as four months of age, beginning the cycle over again. Please reach out to us for an appointment by calling 765-647-1444. Please plan ahead as these clinics fill up quickly. Thanks for sharing! #smallbutmighty🐾

Welcome to our first ever Flashback Friday Felines Style! ♥️🐈⬛ ♥️ Each Friday we are planning to share stories of our cats who have found their furever homes.
Check out this video of FC Humane alumni Knothead (tabby) and Vanessa (long haired beauty). Knothead was adopted a few months back, and was known at the shelter as an energetic guy. He went home with his new family and didn't disappoint with his endless antics. While Knothead enjoyed his new home, Vanessa was found as a young stray left outside our building. She was a very shy cat who tolerated people, but was more comfortable hiding and observing from afar. Knothead's family kept in touch with us and saw Vanessa and fell in love. They patiently visited with her, taking the time to get to know her. They ultimately decided to adopt Vanessa as well. As you can see, Knothead is pretty happy they did!
If you've previously adopted from us and you'd like to have your furry family member featured, please send us a quick pic or video via email or facebook messenger. We'd ♥️ to hear from you!

Milk’s recovery 💗
We’d like you to meet Milk!
This sweet girl was recently brought to our facility for help. She was found as a stray with an injury to her tail. She is currently recovering from amputation surgery, rockin’ her neck bling and melting the hearts of volunteers. Once she is fully recovered she will be available for adoption. #smallbutmighty🐾
