We are participating in Chase Community Giving’s contest and with your help we can win a portion of the $3 million dollars they want to donate to charity! If Acadiana Humane Society in Sunset, LA wins, we can use the money to pay off our vet bills, purchase much needed cat food, and finish the construction of the interior of our hurricane safe animal shelter. All of this would go a long way to helping our no-kill animal rescue thrive and be able to do more for homeless cats, dogs, and other pets. Please vote soon, as the contest ends on November 22nd! You can also share us on Twitter and Facebook and ask your friends to help vote too. Thank you!

Acadiana Humane Society is in urgent need of cat food! We currently have over 100 cats in foster care that need to be fed. As well as many AHS Pet Food Bank recipients who are asking for cat food to be able to keep their pets. We are almost out of cat food! We have plenty of donated dog food, but people rarely donate cat food. We will take ANY brand of dry and canned cat food, as we can use it for our Pet Food Bank to help low income families keep their pets! We do have our cats on specific diets of Purina One Chicken and Rice dry cat food, Purina Naturals, Purina Cat Chow, and Purina Kitten Chow. But, we have no funds to purchase any cat food! Donations to help us be able to purchase cat food can also be sent through PayPal to info@acadianahumane.org . Checks, money orders, and Petco or Wal-Mart gift cards can be sent to Acadiana Humane Society, P.O. Drawer C; Sunset, LA 70584-0536. If you would like to purchase cat food to donate, we have donation boxes in the lobby of Bridge Storage at 2510 Ambassador Caffery in Lafayette. Please be sure to see Linda or Miranda in the office if you would like to leave your name and address for a donation receipt. If you would like to donate to us in person, please either email our Director, Sue Rabeaux at suerabeaux@gmail.com or stop by one of our Petco adoption events and we can accept them at our adoption table. Please be sure that if you bring them to our adoption events at Petco, that you hand it to either Sue or an Acadiana Humane Society volunteer at our adoption table, to be sure that we get it.

Wouldn’t it be amazing if there was a musician who not only supported No Kill Animal Shelters, but wrote songs about it? In fact, there is. His name is Marc Gunn and he sings fun Celtic songs…. with a twist. Marc is the man behind “Irish Drinking Songs for Cat Lovers”, a comedic album of Irish songs rewritten about cats. His song “Black Is …the Color (of My Cat’s Fur)” even includes a plea to congress to make ALL shelters No-Kill.

For over ten years, Marc Gunn is a seasoned musician. He has performed traditional and not-so-traditional Celtic music at venues from Ireland to Italy and everywhere in between. Now he’s bringing his unique style of Celtic music to Lafayette for an evening of Celtic music and fun.

Marc Gunn, Celtic American and Folk Musician and Podcaster, will be in concert presented by Folks of Acadiana to benefit non-profit no-kill animal rescue Acadiana Humane Society. The concert is on Saturday, October 9, 2010 at 7PM at the First Lutheran Church at 301 West Farrel Rd in Lafayette, LA. Tickets are $15.00 each, children under 12 are free. You may purchase your tickets at our Petco Adoption events on Saturdays, or by calling Acadiana Humane Society at 337-668-4484 or Scotty Weeks (Folks of Acadiana) at 337-359-3717. You can also purchase tickets in advance through PayPal using the link on this page: http://acadianahumane.org…marc-gunn-benefit-concert/ 

Acadiana Humane Society will be available for cat and dog adoptions at the Lafayette Petsmart both Saturday, Sept. 11 and Sunday, Sept 12th from 11:30AM to 3:30PM. Please stop by and visit with Kristy and meet some of her adoptable fosters!

Tupperware Online Party will last until Apr. 28, 2010 (EST). However, all orders placed anytime through these Tupperware links will raise money for our animal rescue.
