      Donate a Bed



      Donate a
> Bed



      Hi! My name is Lisa. Please...I would like a warm bed while I am waiting for my forever home. The floor here at the shelter is hard and a Kuranda bed would enable me to have a nice comfortable, elevated bed to lie on when I sleep.. Some of my friends already have beds donated, but I don't have one yet.

      Please consider donating a Kuranda bed to our animal shelter.
      Give the gift of love!

      Why Spay/ Neuter?

        Of course, we all know that this surgery is the solution to pet overpopulation. But it can also keep our pets healthier and better behaved. For more facts from the ASPCA, click here.

        Central Indiana is fortunate to have two low-cost options.
