Adopt a pet

Lillian the Life of the Party, an 8-month-old female hound/Labrador retriever mix, is available for adoption from Kansas Humane Society.

So where’s this party I keep hearing about? Is it at your house? Oh boy, my tail is wagging just thinking about how much fun we could have. I don’t need loud music or flashing lights to have fun. I just need some fun toys and, of course, YOU! Come by and visit me at KHS; it’ll be the best thing you’ve ever done.

Also available:

▪ Honey the Teacher’s Pet, 8-year-old female American pit bull terrier mix

I’m a sweet and mellow dog that just wants a lot of love. I’m smart, too, so if you want to teach me tricks, I’d be more than thrilled about that. Most importantly, I want to have a conversation with you about being best friends. I would love that most of all, and I hope you would too. Come find out for yourself at KHS.

▪ Bullet the Private Investigator, 5-year-old male cat, domestic shorthair mix

Whoa! Who’s that stunning black cat I just saw? Never mind, I just walked by a mirror. It was me! I like to play it cool, and play by my own rules. Of course I’ll be affectionate to you, and give you plenty of head butts, but I’m perfectly happy just being in the same room as you doing my cat thing. I hope to see you soon at KHS.

▪ Mara, 8-month-old female cat, domestic shorthair mix

Oh, hi! Are you the “light at the end of the tunnel” I keep hearing about? Will you be my purr-ever home? Wait, are those adoption papers you’re signing? And do they say “Mara” on them? That’s MY name! Oh, please don’t let this be a dream. I’m currently in a foster home, so call 316-524-9196 to find out how to visit with me.

▪ Lucy, 7-month-old female cat, domestic medium-hair mix

Hi, wonderful people! I’m looking for a home that will have the patience and time to spend with me. I’m curious, adventurous and quite the acrobat. I love chasing laser lights and wand toys, so make sure to stock up on those. I’m currently in a foster home, so call 316-524-9196 to find out how to visit with me.
