#GivingTuesday Is Near!


#GivingTuesday is a movement that was started in 2012. The purpose of Giving Tuesday is to create a national day of giving to kick off the holiday season. After doing lots of shopping for you and your loved ones on Black Friday and Cyber Monday, make a donation to a charitable organization close to your heart on December 1st.

Here at Lake Humane Society, we care for hundreds of injured, abused and abandoned animals each month. Without our organization, unwanted, homeless or abandoned pets in Lake County would have nowhere to turn. Families who fall on hard times would not have a valuable resource within their community. Our volunteers and supporters would be missing a piece of themselves without the opportunity to visit and help these homeless pets each day. Please help us continue to touch the lives of the people and pets of Lake County. Click here to make a tax deductible donation today: 

To help year-round, join our Circle of Compassion monthly giving program. Circle of Compassion donors sign up to make a monthly gift of their choice. $25 per month, just 83¢ a day, can provide homeless pets in need the gift of hope. The gift of love. The gift of a happily ever after. We depend on the community's continuous and loyal support. Click here to learn more.

Happy Thanksgiving!


We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of YOU! 
Our donors, staff, board of directors, adopters, volunteers, fosters, and advocates. We owe our success in saving lives and defending and protecting pets in need all to you, our loyal supporters. Without your devotion, whether you donate your time or money, we could not do what we do. We are truly thankful for you and your loyalty that keeps us going. 
We hope you enjoy this day of giving thanks with your loved ones. Happy Thanksgiving!


Help Us Make Their Holiday Just As Bright
We would also like to take this time to remind you that while many adopted pets will find pieces of turkey in their bowls, there are so many unfortunate animals who were unable to find forever homes before the holiday. Help us make their Thanksgiving just as great by donating a special gift. For just $6 you can provide care for an entire day as well as a Thanksgiving meal for one of our shelter pets. 

Give this gift to a loving animal today! They will be forever thankful. Click here to donate now.

Featured Adoptables



 Lucy
This adorable young lady is Lucy. She is only 6 months old so she has plenty of playful energy to burn. She loves her toys and will pretty much chase anything that moves. Lucy was brought to us because her owner had too many animals and was unable to care for them all. She is now waiting for a furever home with a new loving family. So if you are looking for a young, playful kitten, Lucy is your girl!



Geo
Look at that handsome face! This young man is 6-month-old Geo. Geo is a bit shy but he knows his good looks will get him far. All this young boy wants is a little tender loving care and well, it doesn't take much to get this purring machine going. Geo was brought to LHS as a stray and after being out in the world all on his own, he is ready to find a home that can show him just what it means to be a part of a family. Stop in and see him today. He just might be your next best friend!


M.J. Susie
This steely gray kitty is M.J. Susie. This sweet 1-year-old is a little shy, but with just a few ear scratches, her affectionate side comes out! She is also very playful and is sure to entertain both you and herself for hours. M.J. Susie was surrendered as a stray by a Good Samaritan and she is now hoping to find that forever home that she has heard so much about. Can you give her the home she deserves? Stop in and pay her a visit today!

 

Roxy
This gentle giant is 6-year-old Roxy. Even though she hasn't been with us long, her gentle, loving, and polite personality has already won our hearts. Roxy is a Rottweiler mix who, sadly, was surrendered because her owner was moving and could not take her along. Roxy is one laid back dog and could use a diet and little exercise. She would love to find a home with a fenced in back yard and an owner who has the time and patience to get her back to a healthy weight. Come see her today! She just might be the next great addition to your family!

Featured Adoptables

 
Prince
Our lovable senior, Prince, is still here! Adopt A Senior Pet Month will be over before you know it! Adopt Prince and give him the forever retirement home he deserves. This 9-year-old Labrador Retriever mix is ready to find a family that has as much love to offer as he does. Prince, during the month of November, can be adopted for only $35 (plus dog license fee). So, stop in and see this handsome man before someone else swoops him up! Remember, old men need lovin' too! Open your home to a senior during Adopt A Senior Pet Month.
 
 
Fay
This adorable face belongs to Fay! This 1-year-old Ferret is quite curious and is always up for a little exploring. Being a Ferret gives this irresitibly cute girl a knack for hide and seek and she is always peeking out of her blanket just waiting for you to give her some attention. When she's not up for playing, she also is content with just being held and cuddled. Fay was brought to us because her owner could no longer care for her. Can you give her a new home where she will get the companionship she needs? She doesn't take up much room!

 
Juno
This pretty girl is 2-year-old Juno! She is a very calm and sweet kitty, and she absolutely loves being petted. And if your looking to have a little fun, she also loves to play and will chase almost anything that moves! Juno was transferred to LHS from another shelter due to their lack of space. She is now hoping to find a forever home where she will forever get the love she deserves. So, if your looking for a playful, affectionate kitty, Junos' your gal!
 

 
Snowflake
This gorgeous girl is 2-year-old Snowflake. This sweet kitty was transferred to LHS from a shelter suffering from a lack of space. The move was quite stressful and she is a bit hesitant to come out of her new cage. She still loves having visitors though, and loves getting attention and ear scratches! This laid back, affectionate, lovable girl is just waiting for that perfect family to come along and give her a permanent home where her personality will truly blossom. Come see her for yourself!

There is plenty more where these pets came from!

 Bullet
This handsome boy is 2-year-old Bullet. This young dog is full of energy and spunk. He loves going out for walks and is always ready to just run around and play. Needless to say he would love to find a forever home with a fenced in backyard and an equally energetic family who can keep him healthy and happy. He is partially housebroken and wouldn't mind having other canine siblings. After being transferred to LHS from the Ashtabula County APL, he wants nothing more than to finally find his permanent place in the world. Come see him today!


Chad
This big guy is 3-year-old Chad. This lady's man is very laid back and affectionate. He is a top-notch cuddler and pretty much melts in your lap with his little motor running at full speed. Chad came to us as a stray and after being out in the world all alone, he is now hoping to find a home where he will feel safe and loved. Stop in and see him today. He just might be your next best friend!


Oats
Look at that shining face! This beautiful set of amber eyes and gorgeous orange coat belong to 3-year-old Oats. This kitty has it all! He can be very laid back and loves to cuddle but is also ready to play at the drop of a dime. Any toy brave enough to come near him doesn't stand a chance! Oats was abandoned and was given refuge here at LHS until that special someone comes along and sees just how great he is. Are you that special someone who can give Oats a life of happiness and love? Come see him for yourself!


Twix
This little guy is Twix! This 3-year-old Guinea Pig was brought to Lake Humane Society because his previous owner was expecting and didn't have enough time to give Twix the attention he needs. Can you give this adorable boy the socialization and care he deserves? Stop in and see him today!
