A Pro-Life Shelter
LITTERS OF CRITTERS SPECIAL
For the month of May, all adoption fees will be $20 for any cat or dog of any age or size! We have lots of loving dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens who need forever homes. The shelter is full, and we need to find great homes for many fur babies. All adoptions still include microchipping, spaying/neutering, heartworm testing, and up to date on all shots. Come find your forever friend!
CATNIPPERS PROGRAM
Right now, we have a grant program called Catnippers in which you can get domestic, free roaming, and feral cats fixed at discounted prices. If you have debated on fixing your felines, please check out all of the homeless kittens at the shelter right now. At the prices below, anyone can afford to be responsible and prevent a litter.Domestic Cats- Must have an owner; will have a $10 co-pay for the surgery and $12 rabies vaccination if not current
Free Roaming Cats-Must have a member of the neighborhood willing to continue to care for the cat and take it home, if not the cat will be considered a surrender to the shelter; no co-pay required for surgery, but the $12 rabies vaccination applies if it isn't current
Feral Cats-Must have a colony caretaker willing to continue to provide food and shelter to the colony; all feral cats brought in MUST be in traps and will be ear tipped; will not have a co-pay or rabies vaccination fee for qualified feral cats
*Please note that pregnant females will be billed the $15 pregnant fee to the owner/caretaker.
**Feral cats are WILD. You can't touch them. The appropriate billing will be done as to the category the cat fits in. Do not shove domestic or free roaming cats into a feral trap to receive free surgery.
Transports can be done through the White River Humane Society or you can schedule through Pets Alive. Spaying and neutering through this grant take place at Pets Alive in Bloomington. If you have any questions or need transport dates, please call the White River Humane Society.
DOG OF THE WEEK
Sugar is a 3 year old terrier mix who is a bundle of fun. She has lots of energy, but as you can see she is such a sweet girl! She loves going to the dog park and romping and playing in the grass. Every time you walk by her kennel, her tail just won't stop wagging! If interested in this girl, check her out at the shelter. She is ready for her forever home. Remember, her adoption fee is $20 including microchipping, spaying, all vaccinations, vet check up, and heartworm tested!
Our Mission
To care for the lost and homeless animals of Lawrence County, while providing education and services to the public that will lead to reducing the number of unwanted animals born in our community.
CATS OF THE WEEK
We have a beautiful family of cats all up for adoption who are currently living in foster. The mother is Jelly Bean who is super sweet and mellow. She has been the best mom ever. She doesn't meow too much, and she tolerates dogs. She is around 2-3 years old. Gabby is below sitting on the tissue box(has a white heart on her chest) while Gracelynn is the little girl standing under the bed frame (has a white spot on her belly). Graham and Grant are pretty much identical except Graham has a white spot on his belly and white hairs on his legs. They are 6 weeks old. They can be pre-adopted now! If interested, please e-mail us at whiteriverhumanesociety@gmail.com so that we can connect you to their foster mom.
Prevent a Litter, Fix your Critter!
The White River Humane Society's mission is to end unwanted and abandoned animals in our community. Each adopted animal that leaves our shelter has been spayed or neutered.
Keep in mind there aren't enough homes for all the litters born in Lawrence County, so please Spay or Neuter your pet.
Off Site Adoptions
On select weekends volunteers take adoptable pets to Petsmart, Tractor Supply, and other locations, please call the shelter for more details.
