Just a heads up!

***There is a canine infectious respiratory disease that is going through a lot of states. At this time, Minnesota is not seeing widespread cases but we encourage owners to take precautions a avoid exposure***

The Board of Animal Health recommends dog owners, dog businesses, and veterinarians follow our canine influenza guidance to help stop the spread of any respiratory infection.

-Keep sick dogs at home and isolated from other dogs for 30 days.
-Avoid contact with sick dogs and consider leaving pets at home when visiting other
households with dogs.
-Ensure all recommended vaccinations are up to date.
-Be aware that some dogs are at higher risk of more severe disease and may require
early intervention. These include dogs that are: puppies, seniors, have underlying
health conditions, and brachycephalic breeds.
-Practice good cleaning and disinfection and biosecurity protocols.

🚨🚨🚨🚨URGENT!!🚨🚨🚨🚨
We need your help!! We are doing all we can with our cat population here at the shelter, we are following all cleaning protocols per our shelter vet, we are vaccinating on time and keeping up with boosters and we are cleaning litterboxes and food/water bowls daily, but we are still battling a revolving door of upper respiratory infections. We are reducing our cat & kitten adoption fees to $25 (+$50 refundable deposit for the kittens that are unaltered) with the knowledge that the cat/kitten you are adopting may break, or has the start of, an upper respiratory infection. We will urge you to go to your own vet and follow their treatment plan and if there is an extreme case here at the shelter, we will treat it behind the scenes.
Thank you for your support and help us CLEAN OUT THE SHELTER and get these babies healthy!🐱🐱
