Our Featured Pet...

Walrus is from last year's litter of kittens. He has been waiting a home for over a year. He is very friendly and loves to be handled and loved. He promises to keep your lap warm all winter.

PET PORTRAITS...
Rain Avenue Photography is doing pet portraits for us this year. Please visit their blog for detailed information.

FOSTER HOMES NEEDED....
We need foster homes for dogs and cats. All of our animals can benefit from a vacation from the shelter. Some of our teenage kittens have spent their whole lives in cat condos, and never had the chance to claim a chair as their very own. If you don't have time to volunteer man hours, volunteer your lap for petting kitties. Give a shelter kitty a break and welcome them into your home. Help bring that shy kitty out of his shell so he's more adoptable. We also have plenty of dogs that could use extra obedience training and a change of scenery from the shelter. Teach a shelter dog new tricks, and help socialize them for their furr-ever family. Please contact us if you are interested in this opportunity!

CANS FOR CRITTERS.....
Bring your recycled aluminum cans to the trailer at the shelter. All the money earned from recycling benefits the animals!

PET OF THE WEEK ADS...
We are always looking for sponsors for our pet of the week ads that appear weekly in the Hutchinson Leader Shopper. Please contact us if you are interested in sponsoring one of our animals. It's a great way to get the word out about our available animals. It's $25 to sponsor a pet for a week. Want a Christmas gift for that someone that has everything? Sponsor a pet-of-the-week in their honor.

VOLUNTEERS...
We can always use more man power. If you are interested in volunteering, please stop by our main building during adoption hours and fill out a volunteer application. If you have a talent, we can use it...if you don't want to work directly with the animals, we have plenty of behind-the-scene projects available too. The possibilities are endless!
