It's getting spooky, guys- our pet food pantry is completely abandoned of dry cat food. This is not a Halloween trick! Donations of dry cat food can be dropped off any time to 22975 FDR Blvd California, MD 20619.

THANK YOU -- to everyone that came out over the weekend to adopt an animal or visit us for Trunk-or-Treat! We had an incredible turnout and are THRILLED to report that over the course of our "fee-waived" Howl-o-weekend, 59(!!!) animals found their new families. This included 32 cats, 12 dogs, and 15 small animals.

If you took pics at Trunk or Treat or if you adopted from us, share your photos in the comments! We'd love to hear from you 💜😻🥰

PUPDATE: OWNER RECLAIMED!! Thanks for sharing folks!

Sweet senior gal just came in as a stray. Found wandering in Charlotte Hall. Anyone recognize her? Staff will be leaving for the day shortly, so this cutie will probably end up in the shelter overnight.

If she's yours or you know the owner, reach out to 301-475-8018 to discuss reclaim!
