***ADOPTED***

Looking for a home for this cute little girl! She came with her mom and siblings for TNR (trap, neuter, release) but her siblings were all adopted and her mother hasn’t been seen again. She is very shy and likes to be left alone. She could be an ideal barn/farm cat! Please share! She has been spayed, dewormed, and vaccinated for Rabies.

We love you, Mallory! We are praying for a safe delivery and a healthy baby Baker! We will miss you ❤️

🎄✨COFAS CHRISTMAS WISHLIST✨🎄
It’s that time of year! Time to bless Circle of Friends Animal Society through our annual donation drive! We have a box set up in our lobby for gifts and can take any monetary or gift card donations at the desk. Y’all really showed up for COFAS last year, let’s do it again!! ❤️

11/30/2022

We had to make a difficult decision today for our own Zoe girl. Her health had been declining over the last year and despite our efforts, she was not getting better. She loved sitting in boxes and canned pumpkin was her favorite food. You may have had her wait with you in the lobby or stare your big dog into submission over the years. She will be dearly missed.

11/22/2022

We will be closing on Wednesday at noon to spend the holiday with our families. Please double check your pets’ medications and prescription diets to make sure they will be all set until we reopen on Monday. We hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving! We are thankful for you!

Join us in wishing soon-to-be Mr. And Mrs. Brewer a fantastic wedding day tomorrow and a blessed future! ❤️

🔥BE ALERT: A HEAT WARNING HAS BEEN ISSUED🔥

Symptoms of heatstroke in pets include:

Excessive panting
Excessive drooling
Difficulty breathing
Vomiting
Diarrhea, with or without blood
Weakness
Incoordination or stumbling
Sudden collapse
Seizures

Act immediately by taking your pet to the nearest ER Vet Hospital if your pet displays any of these signs. Once your pet begins to overheat, heatstroke progresses quickly.

*****Record breaking HEAT & HUMIDITY forecasted for the rest of this week*****

PLEASE keep your pets safe! 🐶 🐾 ☀️

Consider the possibility of heatstroke any time the temperature is above 80 degrees or humidity is high, and take these precautions to keep your pet cool:

1. Never leave your pet unsupervised outside on hot days. While you are away, keep your pet indoors with air conditioning.
2. While outside, ensure your pet has access to fresh water, shade, and shelter away from direct sunlight.
3. Take your daily walk or jog in the morning, before temperatures reach dangerous levels.
4. Never leave your pet alone in a parked car. Heat quickly builds to deadly levels in a closed car, even on sunny days that aren’t hot.
5. On hot days, keep brachycephalic (short nose) breeds, elderly and obese pets, and those with heart or lung disease inside your air-conditioned home except for short outdoor bathroom breaks.
