The Indiana Coalition of Animal Welfare Professionals alongside shelters and rescue organizations across the State of Indiana are coming together on behalf of Governor Holcomb’s proclamation to designate November 5-12, 2023, Adopt a Hoosier Shelter Pet Week!


This proclamation will bring awareness to the growing public problem of pet homelessness and the crisis shelters and rescues are facing. Indiana shelters and rescuers call the community to act now to adopt, foster, donate, and/or volunteer during Adopt a Hoosier Shelter Pet Week to help alleviate this crisis and reverse the monumental steps taken back in saving the lives of homeless pets.

To celebrate "Adopt a Hoosier Shelter Pet Week" FWACC and all our offsite locations will have the following reduced adoption fees:

  • Dogs 6 months & older are $50
  • Fall in love with a $4 feline
  • Smalls (rabbits, guinea pigs, etc.) are fee-waived
