****UPDATE ON THE KITTENS WITH BAD EYES****

Cranberry and Sweet Potato had their corrective surgery, and Squash had to have her remaining eye removed.
They were all spayed and neutered as well.
They are recovering and doing well!
Their total cost of care so far has been $1451.24, with thanks to Heritage's generosity in discounting their services.
We thank you, wonderful followers, and donors for supporting these fur babies. We have received enough to cover their bills so far, with extra, which will be used for their future medical bills. Without all of you, we wouldn't be able to help suffering kitties like these.
You all are awesome!! Thank you!!

If you’ve ever been to our building and met this big guy, you know he’s the one in charge there. Meet Dwayne, our enforcer. He likes to keep everyone in check, humans and cats. We think he’d do best in a home where he won’t have to share the love with any other cats, just his hoomans. Come fall in love with Dwayne. 🐾♥️

We recently received these 5 month old kittens from a local shelter who took them in on
November 13, 2024 and gave them initial intake care. They had extensive medical issues, the staff tried to provide care for them. However, due to lack of funding to receive Veterinary Care, they were at risk of euthanasia.
The staff contacted us to give them a chance at life. We got them on January 6th of this year.
Due to the lack of funding causing delay in their veterinary care,
Squash is completely blind and may need removal of her dead eye in the future.
Cranberry and Sweet Potato are having surgery today to maybe gain a bit of sight back. I have included the estimates minus the spays/neuters and Rabies vaccines for all 4.
Stuffing is under medical care to try to save his eyes but may also need surgery in the future.
Today's costs for the eye surgeries only is $600-$860 plus at least $550 or more to spay and neuter them all and get vaccines.
So we are looking at $1150-$1410+ just for today.
The surgeries are being done at Heritage Veterinary Care, and donations can be made directly to them at (740)937-2000 or to our PayPal account.

About Us

The Hancock County Humane Foundation (formerly Hancock County Animal Shelter Foundation) was established in 1992 after a county resident visited the shelter and felt we as a county could do better for our animals.

Starting out in a small windowless building, the Foundation secured a better facility for the animals and worked to raise the save rate for our county's animals by implementing new programs in adoption, fostering, spay and neuter and community education.

For more than 20 years, the Foundation worked towards a goal of not killing animals for space and convenience. Instead, we were able to provide veterinary and behavioral care for dogs and cats for issues that would have gotten them killed in the old shelter model, reserving euthanasia for only those cases where an animal was suffering needlessly or was a danger to others with no hope for rehabilitation.
