Now that the weather has gotten cooler we are able to stay out TNR trapping longer and trap more cats without the risk of them developing heat stroke. The spay clinic charges us $85 for spay and $75 for neuter, which includes vaccines, deworming and flea and tick treatment. When we trap cats like Hulk Hogan who need additional antibiotics and care, the fee increases. We charge nothing for trapping, transport, recovery and return services. We fund this program through donations and fundraisers. If you would like to donate so we can continue to help our community cats, there is a link below. Our paypal is paypal.me/helpforpetssmd
Thank you!

August is almost over! Which means, there are only 3 days left to adopt a new pet FOR FREE at St. Mary's County Animal Adoption & Resource Center.

So far this month, we've had 161 adoptions (which is incredible!) but we still have a bunch of animals looking for new homes.

At this exact moment, there are 35 cats, 15 dogs, 2 guinea pigs, 1 rabbit, and 1 pot belly pig that are currently available for adoption. And we would love to find them all new homes before the month ends and we have to start charging adoption fees again.

If you can't adopt, you can still help by liking this post, sharing it to various groups, and commenting! The more folks that interact with this post, the more people it will reach and the more animals we can get into loving homes!

We're open today (Friday) from 12-6 and Sat/Sun from 12-4!

This is the reality of our community outreach and TNR programs. We have been swamped with requests to take in kittens and while we would love to help them all, we do not have foster homes or do adoptions. Our thanks once again to Smawl Foster Kittens program for taking in these sick little girls who would not have made it through the weekend without help. They already look better after their bath and eye medications. We will TNR the mom cat this coming week so she will have no more sick kittens in the future to take care of.
