WHS Adoptable Animals
The Wisconsin Humane Society (WHS) is a private, nonprofit organization whose mission is to build a community where people value animals and treat them with respect and kindness. For more than 128 years, WHS has been saving the lives of animals in need. We offer adoption services that place 9,000 animals in new homes annually, veterinary services that save thousands of lives, educational programs that instill respect for animals, behavior services to assist guardians and a myriad of other initiatives that help end suffering for animals.
We depend entirely on private donations to fund our programs and rely on volunteers in nearly every department. If you are interested in adopting, volunteering, enrolling in a class, taking a tour or making a donation, check out our comprehensive web site at
wihumane.org. The adoptable animals' web pages are updated every 30 minutes!

Bongo never pounds on the drums or makes much noise, except for the occasional squeal of delight when you allow him to climb onto your lap for a intensive belly rub session! It's surprising that this stunning Australian Shepherd mix is only 7 months old, because he has a rather mature disposition. He's thoughtful, kind and always polite with strangers. He's curious but cautious in his explorations around our neighborhood and doesn't pull hard on the leash or jump up on strangers. Bongo always delights in returning to his suite for a cuddling session afterwards, too!
Check Bongo out online at www.wihumane.org/animals/dogs or stop in to visit! The website is updated every 30 minutes, so you can always see who is available before you drop in. You can also bring your own dog to meet Bongo during a dog introduction at WHS before adopting, as well.

Comet has one of those amazing personalities. He's a confident, up-front kind of guy who immediately comes up and introduces himself. He seems to be oblivious that he's so handsome and unique-looking. His markings include blue patches of fur that create cool shapes on his back. Comet's face looks like it's been painted!
Comet was previously declawed, so it's especially imperative that he always stays indoors where he'll be safe. He seems to get along well with his roommate and would likely adjust fine to a home with another cat. This photo, actually, was taken when Comet was concerned about a little kitten meowing next door (the kitty was a bit lonely because her sister had just been adopted, but she went home moments later, so no worries!). Still, Comet stood up on his hind legs to make sure she was okay!
Comet's benevolence and compassion really shines through and he'll delight his new guardian with his incredible personality. Read our adoption guidelines at www.wihumane.org and stop in soon!
p.s. We are running very, very low on cat toys and our feline guests love to play. If you can help with cat toy donations, stop in during regular hours!

Ursula is like a giant puppy. Happy, energetic, curious and loving, this black Labrador Retriever will have you laughing several times a day. She is 4 years young and wants to play and run all morning long, then flop on her doggie bed for a nap. She's a riot to hang out with and performs silly antics. A good teacher will have no trouble teaching Ursula new skills and manners; she'd love to enroll in a manners class where she could show off her skills, too!
Just like her personality, Ursula's appearance is vibrant. Bright eyes, floppy tongue, strong physique and sleek coat characterize this pooch. Her large features and floppity ears give her a slightly comic countenance. When she cocks her head after hearing a foreign sound, it's simply irresistible.
Looking for some fun in the sun this summer with a happy-go-lucky gal pal? Look no further that www.wihumane.org!

 Baby is as sweet as can be. She will greet you with a smile and insist that she snuggle in your lap.
This 7.5-year-old Siamese cat will also gently nudge your hand to encourage you to pet her. In addition to her sparkling personality, Baby has beautiful cream and black fur. Her luminous blue eyes are stunning and they will sparkle even more when she gets adopted!
At nearly 8 years old, Baby no longer has the kitten crazies and mostly likes to watch the world from a very comfortable place! Whether napping on her right side or left side, this relaxed, confident cat will always invite you for a good cuddling session! See her at www.wihumane.org and don't forget to check out all the cool Mother's Day gifts for mom!
