Humane Society Services

While the Hendricks County Humane Society’s building is closed to public traffic during COVID-19 restrictions, its other programs are continuing:

Pet Food Pantry – Hendricks County residents needing pet food should call the Humane Society (317-745-3338) and leave a message clearly stating their name, phone #, type and number of pets and any special needs. Pet Food Pantry is available on Wednesday for porch pick up 1-6 pm. Please call 48 hours in advance with your request.

Pet Adoptions – You can view our adoptable petshere: www.petfinder.com/search/pets-for-adoption/?shelter_IN102&sort%5B0%5D=recently_added Currently, only pre-approved adopters may schedule a meet & greet with one of our adoptables. Sunday adoption events are suspended but we encourage you to visit Facebook pages of Creekside Animal Rescue, other rescues and Hendricks County Animal Shelter for pets needing homes. This may be an ideal time to introduce a pet to your family and infuse what is a very difficult time with some joy and purpose.

Chip & Clip Clinic is held the 2nd Sunday of the month by appointment only. Please call our office at 317- 745-3338 to schedule an appointment or if you have questions.

You may call and leave a voice message at 317-745- 3338 or send an e-mail to info@hendrickshumane.org. Staff will respond to messages and emails on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

For more information, or to download adoption or assistance forms, visit HendricksHumane.org.

As a reminder, the Humane Society does not operate the Hendricks County Animal Shelter and Animal Control located at 250 E. Campus Blvd, Danville. Reports of suspected animal abuse or endangerment should always be directed to Hendricks County Animal Shelter & Control 317-745-9250. Emergency animal surrender needs should be directed to Hendricks County Animal Shelter & Control.

And lastly, if you don’t already have one, please create an emergency plan for your pet. Make sure pets are wearing identification and have crates, extra supplies and food. Also, identify a caregiver who can help take care of your pet in case you become ill.
