We are a no-kill, non-profit animal shelter run entirely by volunteers, funded entirely on donations.

The Hancock County Humane Society is a no-kill*, non-profit animal shelter located in Greenfield, Indiana. (We are not affiliated with, nor do we receive financial support from, the Humane Society of the United States.) We are currently open by appointment only, to meet available pets for adoption. This shelter has been in existence since 1977 and has always been staffed entirely by volunteers and

funded entirely on donations from the local community (we do not receive public or government funding). We are a registered 501(c)3 organization listed on GuideStar. It is our goal to find permanent safe and loving homes for the pets in our care. We average 30-40 cats in our shelter and with foster volunteers. Our average intake of cats in a year, and adoptions of pets, is approximately 200. With the recent addition of a medical isolation suite to our facility, our volunteers in cooperation with local veterinarians are able to provide the daily care necessary to help more sick animals become healthy, adoptable pets. We work with other local shelters and rescue many cats from facilities who are sometimes forced to euthanize animals due to illness or space limitations. Please consider helping us with our mission, by donating via Facebook, PayPal, or our Amazon Charity List (links on the "How to Help" tab on our website).

*No-kill meaning healthy pets with good temperaments are kept until adopted no matter how many years it may take. We diligently attempt to treat unhealthy pets whenever possible.

As every fairy tale comes real, I've looked at love that way ....
Making her debut is Joni Mitchell. This sweet torbie is about 6 months old and ready for her furever home. Joni was rescued by a good Samaritan and is loving the easy life. Joni has been around other cats and does fine. She is a little shy when you first meet her but warms up quickly. Come meet Joni and make her fairy tale come real.

Have I told you lately that I love you? Meet Rod Stewart. This sweet, silly boy is a total lovebug. He loves being with people. He is such a lover that we can't believe that someone would abandon him but they did. And their loss is your gain. If you are looking for love and a fulltime snuggle buddy, then this buff tabby is just the kitty for you. So come meet Rod Stewart and be the one to "fill his heart with gladness, take away all his sadness". And together you will be forever young.

"It's wonderful to be here. It's certainly a thrill. You're such a lovely audience..."
Meet Sgt Pepper. This cute little ginger & white tabby boy is celebrating Ginger Cat Appreciation Day! He's about 16 weeks old with a cute little bobtail. He was hanging out in a carrier during his photo shoot. To celebrate, post your ginger cats. And if you aren't lucky enough to be owned by a ginger cat, then come meet Sgt. Pepper. He'd love to become your very own ginger cat!

Eleanor Rigby is more interested in playing. She is still a kitten at only 6 months old & a real sweetheart.

Christmas Eve Catnip Party at shelter. Sir Midnight really enjoys his catnip!

Elvis' foster family will need to return him to us soon, and he doesn't like sharing his space with other cats. Can we find this sweet guy a home of his own? More info about The King at https://www.hancockcountyhumanesociety.org/animals/detail?AnimalID=19882135 .

Rosie enjoying a little catnip!

Rocket was so helpful this morning. We told him that he's too young to drive & donuts aren't good for kitties. It's hard to say no to that cute little face.
