FISHERS, Ind. — October is now in full swing. What better way to spend spooky season than with a new furry friend?

The Humane Society for Hamilton County (HSHC) is hosting a special event, "Hocus Pick-Us." From Oct. 14-31, cat and dog adoptions will be $31. Officials said some exclusions apply. 

"It's not just a bunch of hocus pocus, these animals need you to step up and save them," said Lily Darling, community engagement manager for HSHC. "If there was a spell to get these pets into loving forever homes, we would have cast it already. Please give them the chance to show you just how magical they truly are."
