pet resource center

life can be overwhelming- there’s support to keep pets & people together

We know life can be overwhelming at times. Financial insecurity, resources insecurity, and housing insecurity are big reasons people must feel as though they give their pets up, so we started the Pet Resource Center with the goal of keeping pets together with their family.

Our Pet Resource Center provides pet people the support and resources they need to keep their pet or find other alternatives to surrendering their family member to a shelter. Through community partnerships, we are able to expand services to help address the issues that cause people to surrender their beloved family members.

Lost & Found Pets

We provide guidance for pet parents who have lost their pets, as well as good Samaritans who have found pets.

Community Clinics

We offer community pop up/walk up vaccine and pet identification clinics. These clinics provide free vaccinations to keep pets healthy and happy and provide low-cost microchips to help a pet find their way back home quickly in the event they become lost. For more information on these clinics follow us on social media.

Pet Care Resources

Need help with pet care supplies? We’ve got you covered. Thanks to the generosity of donors and community partners, qualified pet owners may receive discounted or free wellness services and preventatives as well as access to the Pet Food Pantry and basic pet supplies – dog houses, kennels, crates, leashes, cat litter, outdoor feral cat shelters, etc. when these resources are available.

Are you struggling to manage your pet’s behavior? Our team can help by providing you with resources for training, enrichment and management tips. For assistance please complete this form.

Rehoming Options

Surrendering your pet can be a difficult decision, but we’re here to help. To make the process easier, we can direct you to resources.

Be Part of the Safety Net

IndyHumane believes that no one should have to give up their beloved pet because they can’t afford pet food, veterinary care, or help with behavior issues. Yet, members of our community find themselves financially stretched or facing other setbacks while struggling to afford care for their pets. You can help us keep pets with the families that love them by supporting our Pet Resource Center here (link to the donation page for the PRC).
