HHHS COVID-19 Updates
Check here for updates on our animals, hours, and programs as affected by COVID-19. The animals in our care are of upmost importance to us, as are public health and safety. Please rest assured that our staff will continue to provide all necessary care to our animals.
MASKS ARE REQUIRED in our building. Please maintain 6 feet of social distance to help stop the spread of COVID-19.
Gift Shop
You are still welcome to shop in our gift shop for your Hill’s Pet Nutrition food and pet supplies. Please call us at 785-233-7325 during adoption hours to have an employee let you in the front doors to shop.
Adoptions
Due to the spike of COVID-19 cases in Kansas, as of Monday, December 7th we are doing adoptions by appointment only Monday through Sunday. Appointments will be in 30 minute increments from 11:30am-5:30pm Monday through Saturday and 1:00pm-4:30 on Sundays. We must have your adoption application on file and it must be approved prior to setting up an appointment. You can access our adoption profile on our website under the ADOPT tab and then PRINT ADOPTION APPLICATION.
There are a few different ways you may send in an application: You may download the Adoption Profile to your computer or smartphone and then complete and save it to your desktop/files. You may then attach the saved copy to an email and send it to hhhsadoptioncounselor@gmail.com. You may also print our Adoption Profile and drop it off at/mail it to 5720 SW 21st Street, Topeka, KS 66604 or fax to 785.233.8151. A final option is to fill out and submit the online form which will be emailed to our Adoption Counselors.
If you are having issues filling out an application or have any further questions, please give us a call at 785-233-7325 and ask to speak to an Adoption Counselor. Call this number as well to schedule your appointment once you have submitted your adoption profile. We do apologize for any inconvenience
Intake
Intake is open Mon-Sat from 9:30am-6pm and Sun 9:30am-5pm, but the door will remain locked with one person/family in the lobby at a time. Please call us at 785-233-7325 to make an appointment to surrender an animal, get a microchip, or search for your lost pet.
Fostering
Yes we are still accepting foster applications! Please visit our page How to Become a Foster to learn more and apply. You may not get a response immediately, but we place new animals in foster homes daily and would love to expand our base of foster families. We are especially looking for those willing to foster pregnant cats, cats with kittens, orphaned bottle fed kittens, and 4-8 week old kittens who are eating on their own.
Open Agility & Training Classes
Training classes have resumed. We are keeping all classes under 10 people, and attendees are welcome to wear masks to class.
HHHS open agility (normally Saturdays 3:30-5:30pm/Sundays 12-2pm) are cancelled until further notice.
Birthday Parties & Tours
For now, we are not scheduling any birthday parties or tours.
How You Can Help
What would help HHHS the most now are donations of money and gift cards (Amazon, Wal-Mart, Target, PetSmart, Petco) and helping your family, neighbors, and friends with their pets if needed. The more animals who can stay healthy and happy in our community, the less who would need to come through our doors. There are also activities you can do from home to support HHHS.
