HAPPY NATIONAL ANIMAL SHELTER APPRECIATION WEEK! 🐾

Have you ever wondered what happens after an Animal Control Officer brings an animal through our shelter doors? That’s when the REAL work begins!

At Oak Grove Animal Control & Shelter, our TWO full-time Animal Control Officers are also our full-time shelter staff. From responding to calls in the community to caring for every animal that comes through our doors, our team wears many hats and works hard to give every animal the care and attention they deserve.

Our officers are responsible for so much more than you might realize! Their daily duties include:

🧹 Cleaning kennels and keeping animal areas clean and sanitized
❤️ Monitoring the health and well-being of every animal
💊 Administering medications and providing daily care
🏥 Transporting animals to veterinary appointments
🐕 Conducting behavior evaluations and organizing playgroups
🏡 Working tirelessly to find placement through adoption, rescue partnerships, and transfers

Our small municipal shelter takes in approximately 135–165 animals every year. Every single one of those animals needs food, clean spaces, compassion, monitoring, and a plan for what comes next.

This National Animal Shelter Appreciation Week, we want to recognize the dedication, hard work, and compassion it takes to care for the animals who depend on us. We may be a small team, but we have BIG hearts for the animals in our care!

Please join us in showing some love to the people who work behind the scenes for shelter animals every single day!

🍂ALL THEY WANT FOR THANKSGIVING IS A HOME!🍂

These four amazing dogs spend their days in a shelter, hoping that today might be the day someone walks through the door and takes them home.

This Thanksgiving, they would be SO thankful for a spot in your home, a cozy place to sleep, a family to love, and a chance to finally leave shelter life behind.
They don’t need a fancy Thanksgiving dinner or a big pile of presents. They just want what every dog deserves — a family of their own.

🍁 Could you make room at your table (and on your couch!) for one of these deserving pups?

🐾 Please share this post to help them find their people!
🐾 Come meet them and see if one of them is the missing piece to your family.
🐾 Give one of these sweet souls something extra to be thankful for this year — a HOME!

Let's get all four of these dogs out of the shelter and into loving homes before Thanksgiving!🦃

🐱💗 HAPPY NATIONAL CAT DAY! 💗🐱

Today, we’re celebrating cats and the incredible things that make them so special!

We want to give a little extra love to one very special mama cat at our shelter. She gave birth to one kitten here at the shelter, and when a tiny 3-day-old kitten came into our care needing to still be with his momma, she welcomed him in, too! 🐈‍⬛

Now, she’s caring for both babies and giving that little orphaned kitten the warmth, love, and motherly care he needs. It’s a beautiful reminder of just how amazing animals can be! 💗

Whether your cat is a snuggler, a troublemaker, a professional napper, or the ruler of your entire household (we know who’s really in charge!), today is all about celebrating them!

🐾 SHOW US SOME LOVE! Drop a picture of your cat in the comments below! We want to see all those adorable faces and celebrate your feline family members! 📸

Happy National Cat Day from all of us at Oak Grove Animal Shelter!

How is this sweet girl STILL waiting for her forever home?! 💔

She’s spayed, potty trained, happy, friendly, and full of personality! She’s ready to leave shelter life behind and start the next chapter of her life with a family of her own.

Poppy and her shelter friend Peach keep getting overlooked, and through absolutely no fault of their own. These girls deserve a chance, too! ❤️

If you’re looking for a happy, friendly, funny dog to add to your pack, Poppy might just be your girl! She’s ready to trade her kennel for a cozy couch, and waiting to finally have a home. 🏡

📞 Call us today at (816) 690-3773 Ext 1006 to schedule a time to meet Poppy! 🌸

Please SHARE to help Poppy find her people! Every share could be the one that leads her home.

We want to give a BIG shoutout to TC Soap for their generous donation of a HUGE container of laundry detergent. 💙🐾

Did you know we do several loads of laundry EVERY SINGLE DAY to keep our kennels, bedding, and shelter spaces clean and comfortable for our animals? We are constantly going through detergent and bleach, so this helps a ton!

Thanks to TC Soap, we should have enough detergent to last us most of the YEAR! 🎉 That is one less supply we have to worry about and more resources we can put toward caring for the animals who need us.

We want to give a heartfelt thank-you to Purgatory Tattoo Studio for continuing to support the Oak Grove Animal Shelter by raising money for the shelter during Lickskillet Days with Kids Sharpie Day.

Chris started this tradition years ago, and we’re so happy to see it continue! By giving kiddos fun temporary tattoos, the amazing artists at Purgatory Studio Tattoo turn a little fun into something truly meaningful for our shelter pets. ❤️

A special thank-you to all the talented artists who took time out of their day to give back to our community!

The money raised will go toward enrichment supplies for our shelter pets who are waiting for their forever homes. These supplies will help keep our dogs and cats mentally stimulated, entertained, and happy while they wait for the families who will change their lives forever. Every little bit helps make their shelter stay a little brighter! 🐶🐱💕

We are so grateful to have a community that cares about our animals and the people who dedicate their time to helping them. Thank you Purgatory Tattoo Studio, for making a difference, one temporary tattoo at a time!

Double the trouble, double the fun, and double the puppy-dog eyes! Copy & Ditto, our handsome 6-month-old Lab mix brothers are ready for their next big adventure: a HOME of their very own.

These boys are smart, playful, full of energy, and still learning about this big, crazy world. New things can be a little scary at first, so they need patient people who will help them build confidence and show them how wonderful life can be outside the shelter.

Growing up in a shelter is not ideal for any puppy. Could you be the one to give Copy or Ditto their fresh start? They don't have to be adopted together, but either way, these boys deserve a chance!

💙 Adopt. Love. Give them a chance. 💙
