Coming Soon: Animal Welfare Center

In November of 2011, IndyHumane announced that the Humane Society of Indianapolis Animal Welfare Center will open at 456 Holmes Ave, Indianapolis. They new facility is scheduled to open in the spring of 2012 and will be home to a second low-cost vaccine clinic.

The long awaited Animal Welfare Center will be located in the Haughville neighborhood which was identified as one of the areas most in need of animal welfare services and will house the Albert G. and Sara I. Reuben Vaccination Clinic, offering low cost cat and dog vaccines.

The center will also provide pet-care resources and assistance with feral cats, pit bulls, and chained dogs via the efforts of the IndyHumane Outreach/Education Coordinator and our partner groups: Friends of Indianapolis Dogs Outside (FIDO), and Indy Pit Crew. The center will be on of the first of its kind in the nation to provide animal welfare partner groups with phone lines, a physical address, and a presence in the city’s target neighborhoods.

Additionally the IndyHumane Animal Welfare Center will be the home of the Albert G. and Sara I. Reuben Spay- Neuter Initiative. While the center will not immediately be able to offer high volume spay/neuter services, it will be the call center for SpayIN(diana), a referral  hotline offering spay/neuter referral assistance on a statewide level. Once the additional funds are raised, a spay/neuter clinic will be added and will provide these much needed services. However, all of IndyHumane's animals are spayed/neutered before being made available for adoption.

Nearly 9,000 unwanted dogs and cats were put down in Indianapolis last year. With your support, we'll put an end to unnecessary euthanasia in Indy - once and for all.
