May 28, 2024….Let’s find Ivy a home before her one year date as she is our longest stay cat.
Ivy came in as a stray from Fergus after living on Lake Alice for quite awhile and being fed by multiple people. She wasn’t the fondest of human’s loving on her when she first arrived but after so many months at the shelter she purrs and rubs up all over volunteers. Ivy doesn’t mind the other cats, she’s been around a couple hundred in the adoption room since she has been here. We believe she would co exist with a dog who is calmer and will let her be. Ivy still isn’t a fan of being held so tiny kids wouldn’t be her jam but a home who will embrace her independence would be a perfect fit. If you would consider adding a sleek mini panther to your home apply today. Her adoption has been reduced to $30 plus tax and she is fully vetted.

Owner Located

Is this your dog?
Male lab with camo collar brought into the shelter Sunday around 2 pm. The finder states they found him 27 hours prior in Green Acres Trailer Park. We would love to find his owner asap as he doesn’t feel the best. If you have any info regarding this pup please contact the shelter. 218-739-3494

A huge thank you to our local Amazon distributer where Tina and her staff saw our wish list and reached out to ask us for our greatest need. Boy did they deliver with many cleaning supplies, litter, and other animal related products. We can't do what we do with out each of you and for that we are always so thankful

We have not had a slow moment and we are still getting calls daily for surrenders and strays so we are blowing through the supplies. We are in need of litter, food for both dogs and cats, and a few cleaning supplies added in too. Our Walmart Charity List as well as Chewy will be available in the comments. Supplies can also be dropped off or money donated that we can use to place orders. Thank you all for the continued support

Whose kids look like this when you wake them up?🫣😴😹 Earl is your typical teen (he’s actually about a year old) who would like to sleep all day and night. He gives you the eyeball 👁️ and says fine I am getting up….stretttcchhhh!
Earl came in as stray in January from Richville and is just the sweetest. He is good with other cats and seems ok with dogs. Come visit him today or apply online www.humanesocietyotc.org/adopt
