We try keep extra donated cat and dog food on hand to help feed the needy pets in our community! This program depends entirely on dontations, and food may or may not be available at any given time.

We would like to remind folks that the Humane Society's SNAP program coupons may be used to cover surgeries on feral cats as well as your tame house pets. Just please let your vet know that you plan to bring in a feral to make sure they have appropriate tools and supplies on-hand, such as absorbable sutures. You may also consider asking your vet to tip the ear for future identification.

Notable Pets

There's always a few critters here that need a little extra care or understanding. We'd like to bring attention to these special pets.

Kobe

This picture does NOT to Kobe justice! He is a solid hunk of a boy with the most beautiful black smoke coloring. Koby had to have a dental cleaning recently, and unfortunately he now has only three teeth left! He is eating mostly canned food for now, but as his mouth heals, he should be comfortable eating dry food again, even though he can't chew it.

Hunny

This sweet gal is quiet, loving, and gets along great with other dogs. She is also deaf, but responsive to general arm-waving to get her attention. She would be easy to train to hand signals. She is housebroken and walks nicely on leash.

Joe

GI Joe got his name because he can do an army crawl AND scale 6 foot fences! He is very submissive and likes other dogs. He is an older boy and is looking to advance his career as a retired officer, though he's still fit for an active lifestyle.

We have pets other than cats and dogs too! Lately we've had gerbils, hamsters, rabbits, ferrets, guinea pigs, degus, two pythons, and a bird come through. So if you're looking for a pocket pet or small exotic, please call us!
