⏰✨ Time is running out to get your ticket to the season’s hottest event!

Fur Ball 2025: A Hollywoof Affair is happening this Saturday — and you don’t want to miss it!

This isn’t just a night of dancing, incredible food, amazing drinks, raffles, and fun…
It’s a night that keeps Guam’s only animal shelter running all year long. 💛🐾

🎗️ Why your ticket matters:
Every dollar raised at Fur Ball directly supports GAIN’s lifesaving work — feeding animals, providing daily care, funding medical treatments, and supporting our SNIP low-cost spay/neuter clinic.

With over 5,000 animals entering our shelter every year, the need has never been greater. Our resources are stretched thin, and this event provides the critical funding we depend on to operate, rescue, treat, and save lives throughout the entire year.

Your fun night out = food, medicine, vaccines, warm beds, safe kennels, foster support, and second chances for animals who have nowhere else to go. 🐶🐱❤️

💥 Only a few seats left — and time is running out!

Over the last few weeks, we have seen an increase in puppies and kittens coming back to the shelter. These were once celebrated adoptions, and now they are back with us hoping for a second chance 💔

This is not to shame or blame anyone. If someone cannot keep their pet, returning them to us is always the safest and most responsible option ❤️

We just want to help future adopters think through the lifelong commitment of bringing a new animal home:

Before adopting, please consider:
🏠 Your long term housing plans and pet approvals
✈️ Future off island travel or military orders
💸 The high cost of flying pets off island
⏳ The time and patience young animals need for training
🐾 Medical care, vaccines and preventatives
💕 The full lifetime commitment of caring for a pet
🚨 That returned pets face a higher risk of euthanasia due to limited space and high intake

Today, we are caring for four adult pets who were adopted as babies and are now back in our care looking for their second chance:

🐶 Kirby
🐶 Bud
🐱 Mulan
🐶 Sami

If you are thinking about adopting, please take time to consider your future plans, travel, housing, and the full lifetime commitment of your pet. Your thoughtful decision can save a life. 💙

If you are ready to adopt an adult pet who deserves another shot at love, visit us or apply online: guamanimals.org/adopt

🐾 Ever wondered how YOU can help save a life?
Become a Foster Hero! 💫

Every time you open your home to a foster dog or cat, you give them something truly life-changing: a break from shelter life, a chance to heal, and hope for their forever home.

Here at Guam Animals In Need, we take in thousands of animals every year and fosters are the reason we can keep saving more. When you foster, you help us make space for the next animal in need. 🏡

Whether it’s a playful litter of kittens or puppies, or a shy dog learning to trust again, there’s always an animal who could use your love. 💕

✨ We provide: food, supplies, and medical care.
💛 You provide: time, love, and a safe place to rest.

Even a week or two can make a world of difference 🌎
