Did you know that Columbus Humane serves more than 30 different species every year? That includes pocket pets like Goblin, a young gerbil who’s thriving after meeting his new best friend. His family shared:

"Hannah is so excited about her new best friend, Goblin! Thank you to everyone who made this gerbil adoption such a magical experience this weekend! đź’•"

If you’ve adopted from Columbus Humane, we’d love to hear how your pets are doing. Share pictures and updates in the comments—we love seeing the difference you make in their lives.

Thank you for helping us make Columbus Humane possible!

When Susan arrived at our OneHealth event last month, she was first in line, all because she had started her journey at 6 a.m. As a senior citizen on a fixed income, living on the far west side without a car, personal sacrifices are made daily. But nothing stops her from taking the best care of her soulmate, a cat named Anne Marie. Determined to keep them both healthy, Susan took two buses across Columbus to reach our free vaccine clinic by 9 a.m. She told us she wouldn’t have come for a flu shot if she hadn’t also been able to get Anne Marie’s vaccines.

“We do everything together,” she said. “I want to stay healthy for her, and I want her to stay healthy for me.”

Thanks to donor support, Susan left that day with what she needed to thrive: a flu shot for herself, core vaccines for Anne Marie, and a month’s supply of pet food to help ease the financial strain she faces each day. For families like Susan’s, these resources are more than convenient, they are essential.

By ensuring both human and pet health, our OneHealth events prevent health crises that could result in hospitalizations, medical emergencies, or the heartbreaking choice to surrender a beloved pet due to financial or logistical barriers.

When donors support Columbus Humane, they are helping keep families intact, protect the people and animals who rely on one another, and provide peace of mind that no family has to face the loss of a loved pet simply because they cannot access care.

Your generosity ensures that families, and the bonds that make them whole, can thrive.

✨ Meet Nubbins ✨

Nubbins was brought to Columbus Humane in rough shape. He had a chronic, non-healing (necrotic) wound on his tail, fleas, and (was) unneutered. Our vet teams quickly made sure Nubbins didn’t suffer more than he already had - performing a partial tail amputation, giving him lifesaving medications, and a microchip so that if he’s ever lost again, he can be reunited with his family.

Nubbins has been recovering well over the past few weeks and has begun a new journey - looking for his new home.

If you’ve been looking for a sweet, curious, and affectionate young gentleman, Nubbins might be the one for you. Stop by during adoption hours to meet him!

Recently, we put out a call for pet food and monetary donations to help stock our Pet Food Pantry and meet the growing needs of our community. As food insecurity rises and human food pantries feel the strain, many families are facing heartbreaking choices between feeding themselves and feeding their pets.

Since then, our community has responded with incredible generosity. Thanks to your donations, our pantry is now stocked to fill appointments for the next 3–4 weeks, allowing us to open more appointments and reach more families in need.

Additionally, we’re excited to announce two upcoming drive-thru Pet Food Pantry days:

Saturday, November 22, 9 AM–12 PM
Saturday, December 20, 9 AM–12 PM

No appointment is needed. If you’re a regular pantry client, these events do not count toward your 30-day supply. Supplies will be distributed first-come, first-served, while supplies last.

Location: Columbus Humane Essential Care Center’s Pet Food Pantry - 3772 S High St, Columbus, OH 43207

We want to extend our sincerest gratitude to everyone who has donated so far. You are truly making a difference. Please continue supporting our local human food pantries, like the Mid-Ohio Foodbank and Hilliard Food Pantry—our whole community needs us right now.

If you have a little extra to give, a donation of pet food or a monetary gift helps keep families whole by ensuring pets stay fed and stay home. We’ll need continued support to keep our pantry stocked through December and into the new year as our community faces ongoing uncertainty.

Thank you for helping us keep families together.

Hace unas semanas, hicimos un llamado para recibir donaciones de comida para mascotas y contribuciones monetarias con el fin de abastecer nuestra Despensa de Alimentos para Mascotas y atender las crecientes necesidades de nuestra comunidad. A medida que aumenta la inseguridad alimentaria y las despensas de alimentos para personas enfrentan más presión, muchas familias se encuentran tomando decisiones desgarradoras entre alimentarse a sí mismas o alimentar a sus mascotas.

Desde esa publicación inicial, nuestra comunidad ha respondido con una generosidad increíble. Gracias a sus donaciones, nuestra despensa ahora está abastecida para cubrir citas durante las próximas 3–4 semanas, lo que nos permite abrir más citas y distribuir más alimentos a las familias que los necesitan.
También sabemos que las citas entre semana no siempre son posibles, por lo que nos complace anunciar dos próximos días de Despensa de Alimentos para Mascotas en formato drive-thru:

Sábado, 22 de noviembre, 9 AM–12 PM
Sábado, 20 de diciembre, 9 AM–12 PM

UbicaciĂłn: Despensa de Alimentos para Mascotas del Columbus Humane Essential Care Center - 3772 S High St, Columbus, OH 43207

No se necesita cita. Si usted es un cliente regular de la despensa, estos eventos no cuentan para su suministro de 30 días. Los suministros se distribuirán por orden de llegada, mientras duren las existencias.

Queremos expresar nuestro más sincero agradecimiento a todas las personas que han donado hasta ahora. Realmente están marcando la diferencia. Por favor, continúen apoyando también a nuestras despensas de alimentos para personas, como Mid-Ohio Foodbank y Hilliard Food Pantry; nuestra comunidad entera los necesita en este momento.

Si tiene un poco más para dar, una donación de comida para mascotas o una contribución monetaria ayuda a mantener a las familias unidas al asegurar que las mascotas puedan mantenerse alimentadas y permanecer en sus hogares. Necesitaremos apoyo continuo para mantener nuestra despensa abastecida durante diciembre y en el nuevo año, mientras nuestra comunidad sigue enfrentando incertidumbre.

Las donaciones también pueden dejarse todos los días en nuestro refugio:

Para hacer una donación monetaria y ayudar a alimentar a las familias con mascotas, por favor done a través de nuestra recaudación de fondos en redes sociales o https://form-renderer-app.donorperfect.io/give/columbus-humane/pet-food-pantry

Gracias por ayudarnos a mantener a las familias unidas.

Kiwi, recently adopted from Columbus Humane, is living her best life in her new home! Her adopters shared:

Kiwi is doing amazing. She’s fully adjusted, has her daily routine down to a science, and is very happy. We’ve found that she really enjoys gentle head rubs and that those seem to have a very calming effect on her as well. I noticed she had been resting her chin on things frequently, even falling asleep with her tail under her chin sometimes, so we got her a tiny pillow she she uses a lot! Sometimes for her head, sometimes she drapes her tail over it. I’ll include some pictures of her! Thank you for checking in!"

If you’ve adopted from Columbus Humane, we’d love to hear how your pets are doing. Share pictures and updates in the comments—we love seeing the difference you make in their lives.

Thank you for helping us make Columbus Humane possible!

Meet Sawyer!

Sawyer came to Columbus Humane through our Field Services and Cruelty Investigations team and has been busy working on his glow up! He had a dental cleaning (plus a few extractions), was neutered, and is recovering from a tough ear infection — but he’s already on the mend and showing off that bright, beautiful smile!

Sawyer’s a clever boy who already knows a few tricks and loves learning new ones—especially if hot dogs and cheese are involved. He’s independent and sweet, but can be a little unsure about touch at first. With gentle encouragement (and maybe a little baby talk), he warms right up.

Sawyer would do best with dog-savvy kids who understand his need for space. He hasn’t met cats before, so any introductions should be slow and done through a visual barrier.

If you’re looking for a smart, silly, and loyal sweet potato, Sawyer’s your guy.

Meet Gigi, the gentlest treat taker on this side of the Scioto! Gigi is big lover and will happily give everyone hugs and kisses. She's a lap dog so be prepared for an added weighted blanket! This sweetie has lived well with children in her previous home and would love to have new tiny friends, but no feline friends for her, please.

Gigi is crate trained, great on the leash and is the best land hippo out there, what more could you ask for! If you're looking for a companion to love on, Gigi is your girl!

Meet Frances!

Frances is a young, gentle pup with a curious heart. He can be a little shy at first, but once he knows you’re a friend, his sweet personality shines. He loves exploring new places, taking in all the sights and smells, and then relaxing with his favorite humans.

If you’re looking for a loyal adventure buddy who’ll remind you to slow down and enjoy the little things, Frances is your guy. Come meet him at Columbus Humane and see if he’s the missing piece of your family!
