Kehoe is one of the lucky animals who found a new home after his stay at the Michiana Humane Society.
By Tabetha Mizia and Gracelyn Pavy, LaPorte Community Schools fourth graders
Help! Help! These animals need help! Have you ever adopted a pet? Well, then you’re a lifesaver, because the Michiana Humane Society in Michigan City collects many animals, but only eight get adopted in a week. If a pet stays too long, they send it to another shelter.

So think about it, what if you were that animal? How would you feel living in a shelter and not in a warm, loving home such as yours? Please, will you be the loving and caring person for a hopeless pet?
Please tell your friends and family to adopt a pet, and give hope to these animals. You can also help by being a volunteer or donating money to the Michiana shelter. If you want to adopt one of these darlings, you could adopt a dog, a cat, parrots, hamsters, mice, and lots more. So will you adopt a pet and be a lifesaver?
Please go to http://michianahumanesociety.org and also to the LaPorte County Small Animal Shelter’s web page, http://www.petfinder.com/shelters/IN89.html, because pets are looking forward to being adopted!
We would like to thank Paula Lott, who works at the humane society, for letting us interview her for this article!
