🤍Our New Beginnings Puppies🤍
Meet our 🤍New Beginnings Puppies🤍 We chose "New Beginning" names for them because on November 7th, they were found in a box, on the side of the road, covered in a towel and nearly freezing at barely one week old. A good Samaritan found them and rushed them to the shelter. We were able to bring up their core temperatures and nurse all but one sweetheart back to health. They arrived as little fighters and we felt they deserved the brightest new beginning we could provide for them🤍
Three amazing foster families opened their home and worked literally around the clock to bottle-feed them. Almost exactly two months later, they are happy, healthy, energetic, extremely well-socialized puppies who are ready for another beginning with their forever family.
They will be available for adoption beginning on Thursday, January 9th from 2pm-6pm CT at Michiana Humane Society. We are hoping that they will each find their very own family, but if they do not receive an approved application, the next day that they will be available for adoption is TBD. We will update on social media.
If you want to adopt one of these puppies, your first step will be to come to the shelter on Thursday to meet them! You can read about our adoption policies and procedures here: www.michianapets.org/how-to-adopt.
They are about two-and-a-half months old and are spayed/neutered. We expect them to be on the larger size when they are fully-grown, but as always, we cannot guarantee what their size will be. One of our fosters completed a DNA test and it came back as pittie mix!
They all grew up in amazing foster homes with people and other friendly pets. We always suggest continuing puppy socializing and enroll your pup in training classes so he/she can grow into well-behaved, socialized adults🤍🤍🤍

There are SO many benefits to adopting a senior pet like Bowie🩶 They are relatively low-maintenance and are content with a life of leisure and snuggles. Their cuddle game is unmatched.
Bowie LOVES to cuddle. She will find an open lap or open arms and know that is just where she belongs. She’s a caring, saint-like dog that is perfect for any family. She never barks or begs; she loves to cuddle and socialize.
She’s a perfect balance of energetic and peaceful. Bowie is about ten years young, is spayed, weighs about 56-pounds, and is back at MHS waiting to meet you. She has done well with some shelter dogs and would prefer no kitties. As long as kiddos are respectful, we think she'd do great. Please come meet this perfect girl🩶

Cucumber is the most lovely easy-going sweet lady❤ Her paws start kneading as soon as you start petting her. She makes the most delightful biscuit ever🥹
She'll keep a conversation going and loves when everyone is doting on her. Scratching posts with catnip on them are one of her favorite things. Coming in at a close second place to catnip would be a heating pad that she can curl up on!
We think she'll be such a lovely addition; bringing lots of smiles, joy, and snuggles into a home. Cucumber asks to be the only kitty in her new home. She is about three years old and is spayed🤎🤎🤎
Mirabel is a gentle soul who softly meows for treats. She loves napping in elevated places and will walk over for pets when she sees you. She has the most soulful eyes and is a total sweetheart💗
Mirabel has done well with respectful dogs and she has been doing quite well when out and about with other easy-going shelter kitties.
She is content lounging around, but every now and again gets the cutest zoomies when she discovers a new toy. She LOVES Temptation cat treats, drinking water out of the faucet, laser cat toys, sleeping in the sink (haha), and watching you go about your day - she is a keen observer and is very smart! Mirabel is about four years old and is spayed🤍🖤🤍

Introducing Bessie! She is currently in a foster home so we have lots of awesome information on her to share with you!
"Bessie has been the best momma to her kitten-kiddos and is ready to branch out on her own! Bessie has been through quite a bit and is slow to trust, but once she opens up this beautiful lady is funny, smart, playful, and is pretty silly.
Mornings are her favorite. She gets the goofies and chases any toy she can find across the dining room and kitchen at Indy 500 sorts of speeds! Bessie also loves treats; it’s a sure-fire way to win her over!
While she may need a little time and patience to come out of her shell, Bessie has a heart of gold once she does. She has also done well with our resident dog and cats." -Bessie's foster mom.
Since Bessie is FIV+, other kitties in the home should either be friendly, healthy, and UTD on vaccines or also FIV+. A slow introduction is always beneficial to building a good relationship! Please call us at 219-872-4499 if you would like to adopt Bessie!
"Check out these polydactyl paws go! One really awesome thing about adoptable Jet is that she ALWAYS used the scratching posts, I've never seen her go after the bed, couch, curtains, nothing! She is such a good girl🩷🩷🩷" -Jet's foster mom.
Playful, loving, intuitive, loyal, interactive, chatty, etc. All the best words to describe a cat fit Jet perfectly. She will climb close and lay on your chest if you've had a hard day. She offers soothing purrs and is a wonderful listener. She also likes to play, too. And stroller rides! She loves to ride in her stroller, secured and harnessed safely.
Jet prefers to be the only kitty. We think kiddos should be about 8ish and older for Jet. AND! Her adoption fee has been sponsored to an approved applicant. She is a little younger than seven years old is spayed. Has she been waiting for you? 🩷 Call us at 219-872-4499 to adopt Jet🩷 #blackcatsofinstagram #adoptablackcat #sheltercat #blackcatforadoption
Aren't Nelson and Tito the most handsome best friends? They would love more than anything to be adopted together. These boys are about four and a half years old and are neutered.
Nelson is the bigger of the two and is the leader of this little pack. He will come up to the front of the kennel and is quite the chill boy! Tito loves his big bro so much and always trusts in what he is doing. If Nelson feels all is good, Tito is close behind him. Both of the boys are easily enticed by Churu snacks!
We think the best home setting for them would be a relatively quiet household. Tito is more of an introvert and feels most comfortable when all is calm. Nelson evens out the playing field and is a bit more outgoing and social. But don't worry! Once Tito feels safe, he loves to burrow under blankets with you to snuggle. In fact, his middle name is "Cuddles", so you know that means something! Nelson loves to play with pipecleaners and water. Together, these boys are the purrfect pair.
Even though Nelson and Tito are on the young side, their teeth do need a bit of attention. So, they will be adopted out on a dental rider. What that means is that they are available for adoption but will need to be brought back to the shelter when their dental procedures are scheduled, most likely in January. So, please ask to see them when you stop by MHS for your introduction to Nelson and Tito!
This almost all black charmer is an absolute sweetheart. Meet Toast. You sometimes see kitties who make the world's biggest biscuits with their paws. Then there are cats like Toast. He is the daintiest paw-kneader we've met but he sure is committed to producing lots of biscuits. His lil' paws start going the second you say hello to him at his kennel.
Toast is all purrs and cuddles. Toast craves affection and he can be playful, too. In his previous foster home, Toast would love to climb shelves or a cat tree; he sure loves being up high!
"Happy" is a great way to describe him. He is so pleasant to be around. We think he'd do great with other friendly furry friends as well as loving kiddos. Toast is about two years old and is neutered.
This handsome hunk is Hank. He is the epitome of a good boy, and has the best manners! He knows how to sit, lay down, stay, come, and is learning how to shake paws!
He loves snuggling and has no idea that he is a bigger boy to be a lap dog! He will lay politely right next to you, if asked! Otherwise, he'll be as close as allowed because he is such a love bug.
Hank has done well on field trips. He likes to get to know new friends politely before being the snuggle bug we all know he is. In the home, he loves his downtime and thrives when it is more on the quiet side. If you are someone who does not have a hustly-bustly kind of home setting, that is perfect for Hank, too!
As far as other furry friends go, Hank does well when he sees dogs out in public! He has adorable play bows and interacts nicely. In the home, though, he asked us to relay that he would prefer it to be just him as the only furbaby. He is the most sweet and loyal boy to his family. He'd love it if everyone in the home was at least teen-aged and up.
Hank is a little older than three-and-a-half years old and he is neutered. He is about 65-pounds and is a short, stocky lil' dude!
