Meet Mabes! Mabes and her bestie Babes came to us after being left in a tote outside the shelter door. We believe Mabes was born in November of 2017, and would do best in a calmer home with older children or adults only and her bestie Babes. Mabes is a gentle soul that is very scared of shelter life, and spends most of her time hiding, and snuggling with her friend Babes. After she gets to know you more, she may lean in to your hand when you give her chin scratches, or put her booty up slightly once or twice when given tailbone scratches. Unfortunately Mabes has tested positive for F.I.V. and will need to be kept indoors and be the only kitty in the home, or share her home with other F.I.V. positive kitties. F.I.V. is not contagious to any human or other animals besides cats, and does not require medication of any kind. Mabes can't wait to find a home to call her very own with her best friend Babes, and put shelter life behind her!
All pets adopted from the Humane Society of Freeborn County will be spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, testing and will be microchipped. All of this is included in their adoption fee. Fill out an application to adopt at freeborncountyhs.org
When transitioning your new pet home please allow for at least 4-6 weeks for your pet to adjust to their new home. They will need this time to decompress, and adjust to a new routine and environment. During that time we will provide check ins and counseling to ensure a successful transition.
Please review all basic adoption requirements listed on our website before applying. We take finding the right homes for the animals in our care very seriously. They deserve nothing but the best! Please allow 2-7 days for applications to be processed.
If an animal is listed in foster care, these pets are not at our facility, but are in foster care homes. They are still available for adoption, and meet and greets are done with pre-approved applicants only.
If you have any questions feel free to send us an email at freeborncohumanesociety@gmail.com, send us a message on Facebook, or call or text 507-377-8501.
