Wesley Romero+FollowEvansville steps up for rescued petsOver 50 animals were found living in shocking conditions at an Evansville home, and now the Vanderburgh Humane Society is working around the clock to care for them. Many of these cats and dogs are underweight and sick, but there’s hope—some have microchips, meaning lost pets could finally be reunited with their families.
