Why participate in Paws in the Park 2022? Because Humane Indiana is a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to lead the community in the humane treatment of all animals. Through Humane Indiana's Clinic and Shelter/Adoption Center, thousands of pets find a healthy new start with forever families. Humane Indiana's Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Center helps wildlife in need and offers wildlife education to our community.

OUR SHELTER

Humane Indiana's four entities are driven by our mission to lead the community in the humane treatment of all animals. Our Animal Shelter strives to find homes for homeless cats and dogs of all ages. In addition, our shelter team works with families who need to surrender their pets, or need help finding resources to keep their pets because we believe in the preservation of families. Through our care, we ensure that shelter pets receive proper nourishment, exercise, and enrichment activities during their time with us. However, our goals and impact reach far beyond our shelter doors.

Abandoned and homeless litters of puppies and kittens and their moms are cared for through the help of our generous foster families, and in times of need we offer crisis fostering to pet owners.
