Ash

Ash was “rescued” by Humane Society of the Dunes in September 2022. He was originally at IACS Shelter Rescue Team (formerly called IACS Rescue) and Indianapolis Animal Care Services (IACS) before HSotD pulled him. The founder of the rescue is Jane Hullsiek and the rescue is based out of Northwest Indiana (NWI).

Ash was 7 weeks old and was “rescue only” because he had a bad eye that needed to be removed. Ash came in with a female tabby kitten named Twizzler. There was a singleton/orphan female tabby kitten named Baconator that the Indy shelter added in with them for companionship. Baconator also needed an eye removed. Humane Society of the Dunes pulled all three kittens from IACS.

Humane Society of the Dunes pulled at least 47 cats from IACS between 2019 and 2023. Yet they only ever posted “updates” about 2 cats they’d pulled, both of which were questionable (see our previous posts about Littles and Bucky). Their Facebook page was recently deleted. When donors reached out to the rescue in early 2024 asking for updates on animals they had donated for, Jane stated she would send their letter to her lawyer then stopped responding. They never posted anything about Ash, Twizzler, or Baconator.

We are offering $100 for proof of Ash’s whereabouts today. He’d be 2.5 years old now and missing an eye. He may be with one or both tabbies he was at the shelter with. Please share to help us find out Ash’s outcome.
