Lost your cat or dog, or found a stray?

Check below to see if your lost pet is currently at IndyHumane or with a Good Samaritan who reported the found pet to us.

If you’ve lost or found a pet, fill out a Lost/Found Report and email it, along with a photo of the animal, to customerservice@indyhumane.org. Or, bring the report to the shelter.

For more help, contact Indianapolis Animal Care Services and download tips on how to find your lost pet and tips on what to do if you find a stray, lost cat, or lost dog.

If you’ve found a stray dog or cat, please take the animal to Indianapolis Animal Care Services, the Indianapolis city shelter. Due to space constraints, it’s not always possible for us to take in stray animals. If you’re able to keep the stray in your home and schedule an appointment, please call us at 317.872.5650 x0. Sometimes it can be a few weeks before we can work an animal into our facility since we never put animals down for space or length of stay at IndyHumane.

Per Indianapolis City-County General Ordinance No. 531-731, stray animals will be held a minimum of four days. IndyHumane is a holding/transfer facility for stray animals, and it is possible that they will be transferred to Indianapolis Animal Care Services, who may assess fines.

After the minimum stray hold of four days from the intake date listed, a stray animal will be given medical and behavior exams and may then be sent to a foster home, breed rescue, or made available for adoption.

• Found animals below were reported to us by Good Samaritans. These animals are not in IndyHumane’s care.
• Stray animals below are at IndyHumane’s Michigan Road adoption center waiting to be re-claimed.
• If no contact info is listed on the animal’s description, contact us for more information at 317.872.5650 x0 or customerservice@indyhumane.org.
• If you believe one of the animals below marked “Animal in Custody” is your lost pet, please bring proof of ownership (vet or purchase records, a picture of the animal with you, and/or microchip information) to the shelter during regular business hours.

Owners will be required to pay for any vaccines, spay/neuter surgeries, tests, or treatments provided to their pet while in IndyHumane custody. IndyHumane reserves the right to transfer animals to Indianapolis Animal Care Services for reclaiming by owners. Owners of found animals will pay $10 per day for cost of care when they come to IndyHumane to reclaim their pet. There will also be an additional fee of $10 for a microchip so that the pet has permanent identification, if the animal was not microchipped prior.

IndyHumane and most veterinarians offer free microchip scanning. If you have found an animal, we can scan for a microchip at our facility at no charge.
