We're starting to sound like a broken record, but our outreach pantry is looking pretty bare ๐Ÿ™

The emergency demand for food and supplies is higher than ever - we're getting more calls every day from pet owners in need. Which means, we're once again putting out a plea for donations! The biggest demand currently is for dry adult dog food and cat litter, but we accept all types of pet foods and supplies that we can then provide to individuals in need.

Donations may be dropped off to the shelter (800 Livingston) any time during business hours, 10am-5pm weekdays and 9am-1pm Saturdays. And thank you, for helping us provide for our community and helping keep pets with their families โค๏ธ

Today we had our yearly visit from the Bay City Department of Public Safety's Youth Leadership Academy students!

Students got a feel for daily shelter operations, helped walk dogs and socialize cats, and even got to meet some of the more unusual types of animals that we come into contact with ๐Ÿพ

We love getting the opportunity to give these students a peek at our particular corner of public safety here at Animal Services, and thank them for sharing their time with us this week!

Request for Information -

This tortie kitten was found today, abandoned in a soft-sided carrier near the location of the old Chuckie's market. She has been recently spayed (within the last month), and has a tattoo that we believe is likely from All About Animals. She is not microchipped and is not tipped.

If you know where this kitten may have come from, please contact our office at 989-894-0679 ๐Ÿพ

We've got a few thank-yous to send out tonight...

This past week, we fielded reports of a dog that had been on the run for at least a week. Thursday, we were finally able to catch him...in the meantime, citizens Doug Schweitzer and his wife (who live in the area the dog was spotted in) paired up with Tom Sequin from Sequin Lumber, and built an XL livetrap with supplies donated by the business. They've since donated this trap. SO, help us thank them, as well as our officers who were on the case, for their efforts in bringing this deserving pooch to safety. The dog in question is special-needs and has some medical concerns, so we're not sharing him just yet, but he is already well-loved and we'll be thrilled to introduce him when the time is right โค๏ธ

Both of our special-needs kitties are ready to start interviewing for forever families!

Sydney is a beautiful 1 year old classic tabby/torbie girl who has a cleft palate. She came to us very underweight, turned in as a surrender for euthanasia, and it's taken some trial and error to get her eating well - an approved adopter will need to be willing to keep up on the dietary suggestions we make. Despite this, she is SUPER social, adores people, and should do just fine in a household with other pets if fed separately. She will be more prone to respiratory issues and sneezes frequently due to the opening between her palate and sinuses.

Einstein is the long-haired blue boy, and is 15-16 weeks old. Einey was born with cerebellar hypoplasia, or CH. This is a congenital malformation of the cerebellum that affects motor function - it makes him very clumsy, and he will need a home willing to put some extra work into kitty-proofing their home to help prevent him from hurting himself. He is also SASSY due to being raised as an "only child" and is still learning bite inhibition during play. We are looking for a home for him without young kids (over 10, please), but again, he should do well with other animals.

Interested in adding either of these "special" kitties to your family? Please visit our office for an application, but note that we will be a little more particular in picking their new families because of their needs ๐Ÿฉท

Don't forget that Empty the Shelters starts tomorrow!

Our kennels and cat rooms will open to the public at noon on Monday, December 4th.

Adoption applications will be required and may be filled out in our shelter office, or submitted via email prior to your visit. Existing pets in the home must have current rabies vaccines, and renters must have landlord permissions prior to adopting. ๐Ÿพ

The event fee schedule will be as follows...
Cats/kittens $25
Dogs $50
There is a limit of 2 adoptions per household.

We do not currently have any adoptable small dogs or puppies under 8 months old.
