The City of Greenbelt Animal Shelter would like to wish everyone a safe and joyous holiday season! 🎅😻🐶
Feeling Stressed?
Feeling stressed? Take the next minute and a half to relax with Morning Glory! Or better yet, adopt her and have a lifetime of Zen 🧘
2-year-old Morning Glory was found in an abandoned apartment back in April with her two siblings, who’ve both since been adopted. Morning Glory is a petite gal. She has a tiny face, tiny paws, tiny meow, and a tiny tail—even her 6-month-old (still adoptable) roommate Dusty has outgrown her!
Morning Glory would be happiest as the only pet in the home. She’s not the biggest fan of having to share her human’s attention (or lap), but her sweet personality is more than enough to fill your home 🩷
If you're interested in adopting mini Morning Glory, please email [email protected] or call 301-474-6124 for more information. All adoptions are by appointment at this time.
Now that Henson has had his summer haircut, he doesn't looks quite as much like a muppet anymore. But we know he's much happier to be rid of his winter coat!
3 year old Henson was found in Buddy Attick Park with no ID tags or microchip, so we don't know anything about his background. What we DO know is that he's a super friendly and outgoing pup with an endless supply of energy! Despite his small stature, Henson would make a great hiking or running buddy.
Henson loves walks, and especially loves birds and squirrels (maybe a bit too much). He likes to sit outside the cat rooms at the shelter and watch our kitties, but he's yet to meet one up close, so we're not sure how they'd get along. But Henson does gets along well with dogs and is always excited to see other dogs on walks. And bonus points, he's 100% potty trained! Overall, we think Henson would do great in a variety of homes.
If you’re interested in adopting Henson, please email [email protected] or call 301-474-6124 for more information. All adoptions are by appointments at this time.
If you’ve ever owned a cat, you know bathing them is no easy feat. Adopt Kotu and he’ll groom your cats for you! 🧼🛁🫧
Kotu was found by St Hughes church and his fur was dirty and matted—but he’s had quite the glow up since! Kotu knows the importance of good hygiene, so he’d like an adopter who can appreciate the soft and silky nature of his fur coat and brush him regularly. In turn, if you have another cat, he’ll keep them squeaky clean!
Don’t let his resting sad 🥺 emoji face fool you, Kotu is actually the most sweet and laidback cat—we think do really well in a wide variety of homes (and with other cats to love on) 💕
If you’re interested in adopting this sweetie, please email [email protected] or call 301-474-6124 for more information. All adoptions are done by appointment at this time.
The shelter is open for visitors from 11am-3pm today! Yoga-master Bonnie can’t wait to meet you 🧘
Despite being 2 years old, Bonnie (named after one of our amazing volunteers) isn’t much bigger than a kitten. She’s also got a spunky kitten personality to match! She’s incredibly playful and sweet, though sometimes her playfulness isn’t reciprocated by her calmer cat roommates (she’s yet to realize that bopping another cat on the head maybe isn’t the best way to make friends).
If you’re interested in adopting Bonnie but can’t come during our open hours today, please email [email protected] or call 301-474-6124 to set up an appointment to meet her.

Volume up for kitten ASMR! 🔊
Nessie has been such a great mom to her 6 chunky kittens, but she’s ready for them to move out! Nessie was spayed today and is all set to go to her forever home where she can get pampered and have some me-time. This gentle girl loves attention and treats, though she’s not afraid to wrestle a toy away from her kittens when she wants a turn to play 😅
(Once Nessie’s kittens are spayed and neutered over the next few weeks, they’ll be up for adoption, as well).
If you’re interested in adopting mom-cat-of-the-year Nessie, please email [email protected] or call 301-474-6124 for more information. All adoptions are done by appointment at this time.

If you’ve followed us for a while, you might remember Cody the puppy who was rescued during an animal cruelty investigation last year. Unfortunately, his adopters surrendered him back to the shelter through no fault of his own, so now we need help to find Cody his forever home! 🫶
Cody is a very silly boy who thinks he’s still a puppy — his favorite form of travel is baby crawling! Cody’s a very easy-going dog: he’s non-reactive, walks great on a leash, and gets along with other dogs. However, he does need an adopter who will work with him on house training; he needs a consistent schedule with lots of rewards to avoid accidents.
If you’re looking for a sweet dog who will make you laugh every day, please please email [email protected] or call 301-474-6124 for more information. All adoptions are by appointment at this time.

Did you know what 6 of the 10 cats we currently have at the shelter are black cats? Sadly, studies have found that these kitties are less likely to be adopted than cats with different fur colors. Let’s erase that statistic by finding Jiji a home!
Jiji is a beautiful house panther with the most striking orange eyes and silky, shiny fur. This sweet miniature jaguar also loves to play and snuggle! Jiji especially loves other cats and tries to make friends with our other resident felines (even if they’re not always huge fans of him).
If you’re interested in adopting this biscuit-making boy, please email [email protected] or call 301-474-6124 for more information. All adoptions are by appointment at this time.

You may have heard that all orange cats share the same brain cell. Well, we wish we could dispute that, but Creamsicle’s brain cell seems to be on vacation today. 🤷
Creamsicle was rescued back in December with her newborn kittens Shortbread, Gingersnap, Macaroon, and Snickerdoodle. Now that they’ve all been adopted, Creamsicle would love to go to a home of her own where she can practice her orange cat shenanigans! This goofball loves to sunbathe, birdwatch, and get lots of pets and treats. She even knows how to play fetch!
If this sweet tangerine sounds like the cat for you, please email [email protected] or call 301-474-6124 for more information. All adoptions are by appointment at this time.

🎶Freeeedom, freeeeeeedom!🎶
After 4.5 long months at the shelter, Leona’s adoption was finalized last week! And, of course, she had to do once last victory lap around the yard to celebrate. Her adopter says she’s part of the family already. ❤️
Greenbelt Animal Services operates as an animal control and adoption organization.
