Here's what the humans have to say about me:
We don't think it's possible for a cat to have a cuter face than Mamacita's. Just, look at her! She gets into the cutest sleeping positions and is a professional nappin' kitty!
Now, there are many amazing things about Mamacita...one of our favorite things about her is her ability to learn that she can trust us. When she first arrived, Mamacita wasn't sure about anything or anyone at the shelter. It took our staff and volunteers extra time to connect with her. And food is absolutely the way to her heart! She loves Churus, cat treats, and cream cheese tastes when she gets some of our human food😉
Once we were able to move her into our breakroom, she started to do even better and began trusting more and more people! Now, we feel that she is ready to be available for adoption and hopefully meet her family.
We think Mamacita would love a home that has a quiet environment. Fast movements are still scary to her so we move slowly when we are around her. She's quite chill, too! Mostly, Mamacita hangs out in her bed, nappin' the day away.
When our staff are having their lunches, she'll come out once everyone is sitting and will ask for snackies of their food. She'll chirp at you softly and is one treat-motivated good girl.
She doesn't seem interested either way in other furry friends just yet. She may be okay to co-exist if other pets in the home are content with co-existing, as well.
She is a little over one year old and is spayed. You'll need to give her a bit of time to acclimate to a new environment, but we can tell you that she does eventually come around and you can see for yourself when you swing by to visit her. Mamacita is the sweetest of all sweethearts and we love her so much.

Come into the shelter to meet our animals! We find the best way to select a pet is to spend time with them. Sometimes what you expect from a photo on Facebook is not what you’ll find when you meet them. We want you to know the good and the challenging about our animals!
Fill out an application at the shelter. We do not provide applications in advance, because we want you to meet the pet first. Allow yourself fifteen minutes or so to complete the two page application.
You call us the next day for our decision. We review applications during the shelter’s closed hours. Sometimes we will have questions, or you might want to bring your dog to the shelter to see if it gets along with your potential new dog. Once we are all ready, we will schedule an appointment to complete your adoption contract, pay your fees and take your new pet home!
That includes all initial vaccinations (except rabies), spay or neuter if required, heartworm or feline leukemia testing, and flea treatments.

Our adoption process is easy as 1-2-3!

More about this shelter
The Michiana Humane Society provides a safe harbor for 1,200+ animals yearly. Most of these animals are surrendered by their owners who can no longer provide care. We also take in strays, abandoned, and unwanted animals found in our service area. Once here, healthy, non-aggressive animals are assured of our care until we find them homes, no matter how long it takes.
With an annual budget of around $550,000, our caring staff and volunteers provide shelter, food, basic medical care, and vaccinations. Since 2015, 100% of our dogs, cats and rabbits are spayed or neutered before being adopted. We are a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization relying solely on private donations; we receive no tax funds to help with our mission.
Our service area includes both LaPorte County in Indiana and Berrien County in Michigan, but depending on the animal we sometimes adopt beyond those borders.
The Michiana Humane Society & SPCA has been a leader in animal welfare since 1920, when a group of local women in the Long Beach, Indiana area began to collect small amounts of money to care for stray animals. In 1948, the organization incorporated and evolved into the Michiana Humane Society & SPCA, Inc. Over the years volunteers kept the shelter going with private donations and hard work.
The shelter moved to its current location at 722 Indiana Highway 212 in Michigan City in 1997. The shelter was designed to provide plenty of space for our residents, with separate facilities for dogs, cats, and other small animals. A classroom space is used for educational offerings and group activities, and Alynne’s Animal Aid Center, our veterinary suite, provides medical care for the shelter’s animals. Our outside space includes a kennel for dog play adjacent to the building, the three-part Bark Park for meeting dogs, and a three-acre fenced dog park used by the shelter to walk and exercise dogs, and available to the community by membership.
