Adopt a Pet
Call FACE at (317)638-3223 Monday through Thursday to schedule an appointment to see one of the dogs and cats available for adoption. Below is a partial listing of the dogs and cats that are currently available.
Dot:
Hello, my name is Dot. I am a white and brindle pit bull with a lot to offer to my new guardian. I’m one of the smartest girls you'll ever meet, and I am getting smarter every day. I also have a lot of energy, so I would prefer a home with a backyard where I can run and I would love to have a guardian who would take me for walks. I am not always friendly with other dogs, but I do get along great with cats, even when they chase my tail. So, while I would definitely need to be in a single dog home, I would do well in a home with a feline companion. (You should check out my favorite feline friend at the clinic, Jack!) You'll also be happy to know that I am completely house trained, so I would never make messes in my new home! So stop by and meet me some time if I sound like the right girl for you.
Sugar:
This lovely lady is a used to be pretty shy, but has decided that humans offer great petting opportunities. Sugar is a mommy-cat (that will mean something to the experienced cat person), and would be fine to join a home with an existing cat. She likes her quiet time and would very likely want to be your lap and bedtime companion.
Pinduli:
I was named Pinduli after a children’s book with the same name about a Hyena who was embarrassed of his very large ears. I have grown into my ears and am now a very proud cat, perhaps a little egotistical. Does it look like I'm posing for the camera? I am because I know I'm good lookin’! I was adopted as a kitten, but returned to FACE when my family's daughter became allergic. I won't preach, but was a little hurt, to say the least. The family loved me and said I was a really good cat. I remember sleeping in my favorite sunny spot and hope to have another chance at a home. I like other cats and would love to have a cat companion, but think a girl or a laid-back boy cat would be best. Most houses are not big enough for two (or more) cats with grand personalities like mine. Take a look at my fabulousness in these photos and put in your adoption application asap!
Monte:
A high-energy guy, Monty is a dog without limits! He is under one-year old, very friendly with dogs and people, but is in need of some rules. Monty responds well to his people and will, for example, sit to wait for a treat. So he will do just great in a home with consistent reinforcement. Monty will need walks to burn off some of his go-go-go! Another dog to play with at home would also be super! Monty came to us when his guardian could no longer care for him. His coat is so much better, but still is somewhat sparse, mostly from poor diet and trying times. That will continue to fill in with a solid supply of good food and love.
Mickey D:
Another young dog, Mickey D will also need walks and or another dog to play with. He is gregarious and likes all people and other dogs. As you look at his picture, you see a picture of a dog ready for action (these pictures were taken on a hot hot day). Mickey still needs to gain weight and will fill out in his new home.
Voodoo:
Banjo and Voodoo are fast friends. Voodoo has a gorgeous black coat with a hint of brown. He is loving and wants lots of attention. Voodoo is young at 6 months or so and he's a talker. He was found in a box near a warehouse not too far from FACE. Voodoo was panting and suffering heat exhaustion when he came to us, but he is in great shape now.
Lilly:
Named for a Lilly Pad or Water Lilly, this tiny kitten was floating in the water; she was pulled out by a net by a gentle fisherman. Lilly has a wound on her neck from a cuterebra (a large fly egg); that will heal nicely and her fur will fill in. Lilly is becoming more and more lovely every day, but everyday is still a bad hair day. She's in foster care and loves to sleep in bed with her human guardians, children and adults alike.
Dirty Harry:
This guy loves other cats and dogs. Harry has a big personality and is very affectionate, so a big dog who likes cats and/or another outgoing cat would be great friends for him. Harry is a very cute kitten! We love his perfectly black nose.
Oliver:
I'm a fun loving, active kind of guy. I love any type of sport. I am all about playing ball or wrestling. One of my all time favorite things to do is chase other cats and dogs. Sometimes you gotta keep those dogs in line. It's not easy being the baby you know.
MaeMae:
First of all let's get this straight. I need to be the only cat in this house! I need to be in charge of everything. I do however love people and dogs. Dogs are so dumb. They believe anything you tell them. Suckers!
Face and Mr. T:
Face and Mr. T: The last two remaining members of the A-Team, Face and Mr. T are anxiously awaiting their next adventure in a forever home. These cuties were abandoned at the clinic with their other two brothers at about 10 weeks of age. Now at 5 months old, they are healthy, friendly, neutered and fully vaccinated. The boys love doing anything together, whether it be wrestling, batting their favorite red ball, or snuggling with their human companions. They also enjoy the company of dogs and other cats! Mr. T and Face would do great in a home looking for two feline friends since they have been best buds their whole lives thus far. Come to the clinic and meet the adorable twosome today!
Lenny:
Hi, my name is Lenny. I was brought to FACE when I was 5 weeks old. When I first came to FACE I was a little crazy. I had wild hair and well frankly, was living life like a rock star. I've calmed down a little, but I still love getting all of the attention.
Ralph and Patty:
If you are not sure whether to adopt a dog or a cat, then this dynamic duo may just be the companions you are looking for. Or, if you are a stand-up comic looking for material, these are most-definitely the cats for you. This easy-going, brother and sister pair, like to goof around and lie down with feet positioned behind them (normally a dog-only position). Ralph is a hefty fellow, Patty is the daintier of the two, although she is no waif. Ralph and Patty are okay with dogs and just about anyone else.
Fluffy:
Why Fluffy you ask....she has short hair? We didn't name her. If we were to name her, she would be called something pretty like Petunia or Lilly. Fluffy is very sweet! She would love a family with children, if only to increase the potential number of people with whom she can be at any time. Fluffy is a petite cat and would look great on any sunny windowsill.
Farley:
Ok, don't expect Farley to run a kitty-marathon anytime soon. He is proud of his size and really, it only adds to his laissez-faire attitude about life.
BUT – Farley is a hero. Someone brought a kitten to FACE that was dying from flea-anemia. Farley stepped up and very generously donated blood to save the kitten. You want to adopt a hero-kitty…….here you are!
Cleo:
With all that is expected of her, we don't know when Cleo finds the time for her daily beautification. But she must, how else do you explain those exquisitely lined-eyes. Cleo belongs with someone who has enough self-confidence to live with such a beauty. If that is you, Miss Cleo is a special kitty whose personality matches her pretty face.
Mandy:
Hi, my name is Mandy. I am just about the sweetest girl you'll ever meet. I am a shepherd/lab mix who is spayed and up to date on vaccinations. I have lived at the clinic for a long time, and while I love everyone here, I am ready for a family to call my own. I would make a great family-dog, although I would need to be the only animal in my new home. I'll make up for it with all the love I will give you! I love to roll over and get a good belly rub. I do enjoy my time outdoors, so a home with a yard for me to run in would be ideal. But most importantly, I would love a family who would give me lots of attention and petting. I am always up for visitors so please stop by to say hello!
Buckley:
Hi everyone, my name is Buckley. I am a shepherd/husky mix who is neutered, microchipped and up to date on all my vaccines. If you are looking for a low-maintenance dog, I bet I am the perfect guy for you. There is one thing that I am really looking for in my new home and that is a BIG backyard. I love to be outside and I hate coming inside! As long as it is not raining or snowing, the great outdoors is the place for me. Don’t get me wrong, I do love to be pet and loved on, but nothing beats a day in the shade! If you’re looking for a new friend who can follow a daily routine, come meet me!
Ginger:
My name is Ginger and I am a very cute American Staffordshire terrier. I still have a lot of "puppy" in me, so I would need a very patient guardian to give me a forever home. I love to run and play and I am very friendly to everyone I meet. I get along pretty well with most of the dogs I meet, but I would probably do better with bigger dogs because sometimes I don’t know my own strength! I am still working on my house breaking, but I make up for it in other areas. I'm very sweet and affectionate. Come visit me and you are sure to get a kiss! I’m also pretty good at listening and I know the word "No." Come meet me today! Can you really resist this smile?!
Bingo:
Hi, my name is Bingo. I am a neutered pit bull with a lot of love to give to the right home. I can be a bit of a high-maintenance dog, but that is only because I am a big baby who would love constant attention from a loving, patient guardian. Me and the rest of my siblings were abandoned at the clinic when we were just a few weeks old. Being the runt of my litter, I was picked on a lot, which is why I am such a big baby now! My best friend at the clinic is a mixed breed named Joshua. He took me under his care and I began thinking he was my mom. That is ultimately what I need, someone to be my mom. I do better with women than with men. I love to go on walks, and I am very good about not pulling! However, I would need to go to a home without other dogs. Come say hello to me today, and I promise to give you a big sloppy kiss.
Millie:
Hi, my name is Millie. I love to play but also would like some quiet time with my new guardian.
Charlie:
Hi, my name is Charlie. I love all people and will follow you around once you pet me.
Note: Charlie tested positive for the feline leukemia virus, which is a highly contagious viral disease. The virus can be transmitted to other cats through sharing food dishes, water bowls and litter boxes. However, Charlie shows no signs of being sick and depending on how the virus progresses, he could live many years. But since the disease is contagious, a home without other cats or a home with only other feline leukemia positive cats would be best.
