We had an amazing adoption week over the Labor Day weekend! Thank you to our fantastic adoption counselors who worked hard to match 41 cats and 23 dogs with their new families last week! You can help spread the word about our available pets and lifesaving work by "liking" and sharing our social media posts on Facebook. You can also follow us on Twitter and Instagram.
