My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Ballad: The Calm and Affectionate Companion
Ballad is a charming and relaxed 7-month-old who’s as steady as his name suggests. This friendly boy, rescued with his siblings Elegy, Limerick, and Sonnette, has a naturally calm demeanor and doesn’t hide from people. Ballad loves playing with spring toys, balls, and wands, and his easy-going personality makes him great with both cats and dogs.
Unlike his siblings, Ballad doesn’t rush to his food bowl—he prefers a more laid-back approach to life. He enjoys being picked up and loves gentle pets, making him an ideal fit for a family looking for a mellow, affectionate companion. If you’re looking to adopt more than one cat, Ballad would love to bring a sibling along for the journey.

More about this shelter

The Humane Society of Northeast Iowa (HSNEI) is a 501(c)(3) humane society founded in 1995, in Decorah, Iowa, to help homeless companion animals in the five-county area of Northeast Iowa (Allamakee, Clayton, Fayette, Howard, and Winneshiek counties). Since our founding, we have offered numerous services including dog and cat rescue, fostering and adoption services, humane education, safety and family fun fairs, microchipping for pet identification, financial assistance in spaying/neutering and pet referral services.



Our rescue and adoption program provides temporary care at the Love & Friendship Adoption Center and in foster homes for unwanted and abandoned animals. We also provide a website to help in finding adoptive homes for these animals.



In 2013 the Spay/Neuter Assistance Program of Northeast Iowa (SNAP) joined HSNEI to become one organization working for animals in northeast Iowa.



HSNEI is a Best Friends Network Partner and a PetCo Foundation Partner.
