Vanderburgh Humane Society

Facility is clean with no odors. The employees were helpful and willing to share information abut the pets (we were looking for a cat to add to our family). We asked to see numerous cats during our two visits and the employees were always willing to help us. The cat we chose needed to go back to the shelter for additional vet care (she picked up some kind of cough and sneezing thing that happens to cats in stressful group situations). She was treated without cost and the employees kept us informed on the treatments and progress of the cat. I can only say positive things about our experience. I recommend this shelter to others.

The facility is nice but the employees need an upgrade. They talk poorly of other people/​businesses but then won’t or can’t give information to back it up. I was highly disappointed and will be dealing with other shelters in the future. Which is sad, because those animals need a home but i can’t bring myself to step in the door again.

First, the pics I posted here actually go with my review of Evansville Animal Control (oops!), but there are many-​a-​cute-​kitty to be found here, too.
Vanderburgh Humane Society is great! Hubby and I attended the doggie walk last Saturday and it was wonderful to see everyone out and about with their furry family members. Of course, we took a stroll through the shelter as well and I was delighted to see such nice holding areas for the animals. We fell in love with another kitty, but already having two, decided we couldn’t bring her home.
In addition to cats and dogs, VHS has a room with bunnies, guinea pigs and rats up for adoptions. I am such a bunny person– I wanted them all!
Where as the animal control center is just a holding place for animals, VHS is truly a shelter that provides care. The animals get vet care, vaccines, and spay/​neuter services. Also required here is an application process and approval for pet ownership. So if you’re looking for a great pet, this might just be your spot!
