Two (partially tamed) kittens available for adoption.
We were born and raised outside. When we were 5-weeks-old, we were trapped by a human and brought into the shelter, that was wicked scary - ugh. From there, we were whisked away to a "foster home" where a pair of calm humans taught us how to live indoors.
Now that we are old enough for a "real home" we are back at the shelter. We have a room to run and play in, which is fun, but then humans come in and we run and hide from them.
When they reach for us we hiss but if they ignore our initial reaction and pet us we actually kind of LIKE it (as long as they move slowly). We try not to purr but can't help it. I guess we secretly want a human of our own.
Since we are too small to survive outside, we have conceded to allow a patient person to adopt us and continue to work with us on our human social skills (we do just fine with feline friends). Though they feed us and clean up after us we still have a little trouble believing we can trust these hairless creatures.
If given the time, we’d learn to like people...but so far they have proven an acquired taste. 🐾

Lucky & Luna (black) have been patiently waiting for homes for months, and months, and months. A shelter is no place for dogs to have to live out their lives. They deserve structure, comfort, consistency, more exercise and more attention than a kennel environment provides.
They really enjoy their outdoor time together, it gives them a chance to get the zoomies out.
We really hope there are some folks out there who are able to open their heart and home to these shelter dogs soon (they are not bonded and do not need to be re-homed together).
Please share this post to help find Luna and/or Lucky homes.

No Rest for the Weary - Please Spay & Neuter.
Last Friday the Lakes Region Humane Society (LRHS) was down by a team member and stretched thin.
The day was filled with investigating ownership of a stray dog brought in by a Good Samaritan unexpectedly (we are still searching for the owner), conducting cat showings/adoptions, cleaning/feeding our cat and dog residents, fielding community phone calls and ensuring a pair of neglected dogs made it to their wellness appointment at the vet.
Just when we thought we were getting caught up, an employee from the Wolfeboro Transfer Station called us. They had discovered five newborn kittens beneath a baler/compactor machine - YIKES!
Ideally, these tiny kittens would have stayed with their mother. But with the Transfer Station needing to operate the machinery and no sign of the mother all day, their situation was dire.
The kittens, hungry and vocal but otherwise healthy, were delivered to us. With no available foster homes at the time, our Executive Director took them home to provide the critical round-the-clock care they needed, including bottle feeding every two hours and keeping them warm—duties usually reserved for a devoted momma cat.
Over the next six days, our dedicated staff shared the responsibility of taking this group home and caring for them day and night until space opened up with our seasoned foster parents, Alice & Charlie Briggs. Now that's teamwork!
We’re incredibly thankful to the Town Employees who looked out for these little ones and brought them to the safety of LRHS. We’re even more grateful to our committed team, who went above and beyond to ensure these kittens had a fighting chance.
This heartwarming experience has also renewed our appreciation for our foster families, especially after doing some serious fostering ourselves. These five adorable kittens are expected to be ready for adoption just before Halloween.
Critical situations like these can be avoided by having cats spayed and neutere
URGENT: Foster Homes Needed for Pregnant Cats and Kittens!
Our dedicated foster volunteers have been working tirelessly to care for the waves of kittens and pregnant cats arriving at our shelter, but we simply can’t keep up. Cat overpopulation has doubled since last year, making it more crucial than ever for pet owners to stay vigilant about spaying and neutering their pets.
Today, two pregnant cats were brought to us. Each of them urgently needs a calm, clean foster home where they can give birth and raise their kittens. We’re looking for two new foster families who can commit to a 10-12 week period of care.
Providing a foster home gives kittens the best chance at socialization, round-the-clock care, and helps them grow up acclimated to a loving home environment. Kittens raised in a shelter during those critical first 8 weeks often miss out on these experiences, which can make it harder for them to find permanent homes.
To become a foster parent, simply visit LRHS.net and complete the Foster Application. Once your application is processed, we’ll schedule a virtual home visit to ensure your space is kitten-proofed. We’ll provide all the resources you need, including food, supplies, medical care, and ongoing support.
As a special thank you, if you choose to adopt a pet you’re fostering, you’ll receive 50% off the adoption fee.
