Furry & Feathered Friends In Need Of Help
Many animals fortunate enough to have owners are provided shelter from the frigid temperatures outdoors, which have dropped so low recently. Those animals which are homeless may find a caring resident in the community who will take them in or set food out. Others find shelter from the brutal temperatures wherever they can.

In Martinsville, Indiana, The Morgan County Humane Society faced a critical situation, but not alone. Residents in the community came out to offer their help and financial support when the shelter took in 68 dogs and 23 cats. People brought food, blankets, while other residents offered to be foster homes for the animals until their adoptions could be arranged.

Volunteers and donations are a vital part of The Humane Society shelters across the country. Without this assistance from the communities the shelters would cease to exist. The shelters are always in need of volunteers to help the staff clean the kennels, cages, and portable crates. Assist with feeding the animals, general care of the facilities, and help those who are considering adopting pets.
