Marshfield Area Pet Shelter

Bud's got a new BFF! 🐾💕 3 year old Oliver is giving him the royal treatment 👑 www.marshfieldpetshelter.org/adopt #catadoption

Taz & Bingo

Taz and Bingo spend their days playing inside with their plethora of toys, then head outside to run laps in the big yard. They entertain each other and do their best to pass the time while waiting for forever homes. They are the sweetest girls, yet they've had ZERO interest in adopting them. We know if someone would meet them, they would fall in love just like all of us have at MAPS. They love other dogs and they don't need to be adopted together, but their fee is waived if someone is willing to keep them together. Apply to visit them! 💕🐾 www.marshfieldpetshelter.org/adopt

Taz & Bingo

Four weeks ago today, these two sweet girls, Taz & Bingo, arrived at our facility. They have spent a good portion of their lives in a shelter. Dogs are creatures of habit and they have learned the routine at our shelter, but this is not a home. It took us and them a few weeks to figure each other out, but once we did, we share a mutual love. If you are looking to adopt a new companion, please consider giving them a chance and complete our application to visit them. They do not have to be adopted together, but as you can see in the video, they do AMAZING together and enjoy each others company. 💕🐾 www.marshfieldpetshelter.org/adopt

Shy Kittens Need a Home!

Ocelot, Pallas and Hadley are 5 months old and we are looking for a special home for them. They were found outside as strays and they've had little interaction with humans. As you can see in the video, they find comfort in each other's company, but not so much with humans. They run away whenever anyone walks into the room. They tolerate pets if we can get close enough to them, but they really don't enjoy it. We've had success in the past helping younger kittens overcome their fear of humans, but unfortunately these kittens have now been with us for over two months and they are as good as they will get with their social skills. They will be happiest staying together. If someone has a heated garage or shop and would like future working cats, these boys and girl will be great candidates. Because they are so young, they will need a caregiver to keep them confined throughout the winter. If you feel you can provide a good home for our kittens (inside or outside), please complete our application at the link below. After the app is approved, we invite you to come visit them. There is no fee to adopt a working cat. All cats are spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

They tolerate pets if we can get close enough to them, but they really don't enjoy it. Hadley, the brown tabby, will hiss and run when approached.

Supplies Needed!

Little Deckard was one of 91 animals who entered our doors in September. He strolled onto someone's lawn from the bushes. He was covered in burrs and had a snotty nose. Holly went to work right away to get him more comfortable. He received a scruffy haircut to remove all the debris in his fur and he was started on medicine for his cold. He was placed in a warm bed with a big dish of canned food and he fell asleep shortly after his whirlwind of a day. As you can see in the video, he is a sweet little soul making tiny biscuits and giving head butts the whole time Holly worked with him. Deckard is one of many who need us, but we can't do it alone. We are in desperate need of canned PATE cat food, Tidy cat clumping litter and Churu lickable cat treats. If you can donate, our kitties would appreciate it. Donations can be dropped off in our entryway any time at 3500 Downwind Dr OR shop our Chewy wish lists and have them delivered. Thank you for your kindness! 😽 Chewy: www.chewy.com/g/marshfield-area-pet-shelter-inc_b64262702

***UPDATE! Thank you for sharing Bob's video! We received many applications. Therefore, NO MORE APPLICATIONS ARE BEING ACCEPTED! 😻 Sweet mama Bob is STILL waiting for a home. She spends her days on the catio waiting for her family to come along and adopt her. She loves people and just wants to sit on someone's lap to enjoy all the pets. She even has a kitty roommate, so she should be good with another cat. 😺 Bob gave birth to four beautiful kittens at the shelter on May 1. She was the BEST mama! All her kittens were adopted months ago and now she is our longest resident. She has not received a single application. Will the first one be from YOU? Apply to meet her! 💕

Little Kitten Care

A behind the scenes look at what all goes into caring for little kittens. 😿 At only 4 weeks old, kittens without a nursing mom need to learn how to eat on their own. We start by syringe feeding them a mix of kitten formula and pate at least three times a day. This is to ensure they are getting proper nutrition and to encourage them to start eating on their own out of a bowl. Next comes the clean up. Without a mom to clean them, Holly gives each kitten a bath. Another very important task of the mama kitty is to stimulate the kittens to go potty and clean them up afterwards. Without her, we need to make sure that area is clean also. Keeping the kittens warm and dry is critical at this age. Holly gently blow dries each one and places them on a heating pad because they don't have a mom to keep them warm. We cannot emphasize enough how important it is to keep kittens with their mom. For more info, visit at www.marshfieldpetshelter.org/bottle-babies Our lifesaving work is made possible because of generous donors and our very dedicated staff. 💕
