Protecting animals, supporting communities. 🐾 Tri-Cities Animal Services (TCAS) reunites pets, finds homes for adoptable animals, and ensures public safety through animal control.

10/03/2025

The Tri-Cities Animal Services, or “TCAS,” has reunited hundreds of lost pets with their families since April of 2024 – and we’re working to streamline the process even more.
Now – our online lost and found map makes it easy to tell if you’re within the TCAS service area.
No need to print hundreds of posters anymore –
Our website will walk you through the steps of reporting a lost pet, so that shelter staff know to keep an eye out for any animals matching the description.
You can also use the site to report *finding* a lost animal. Even if you don’t catch the pet or bring it to the shelter in Pasco, this information can give owners a vital starting place to begin their search.
If you’re looking for a missing pet – in addition to filing a report – you can search all of the “found” pets to see if someone has reported a sighting!
You can also make a “general animal report” in situations anywhere in the TCAS service area if there’s an animal you’re concerned about, but it’s not in danger or putting anyone else in danger.
Best of all? You can do all of this from your smartphone.
Visit “TriCitiesAnimalServices.com” to make animal reports, check out the lost and found pets map, sign up for volunteer opportunities, and see the animals available for adoption right now!

🐾🚒 Our Third Annual Felines & Firefighters = Purrfect Success! 🚒🐾

This past Saturday’s third annual Felines and Firefighters event was a huge hit! Thanks to the amazing support from our community, we celebrated 17 cat adoptions and 4 dog adoptions! That’s 21 pets who found their forever homes. 💕

A big thank you goes out to everyone who came to meet our adoptable pets, as well as to the Pasco Fire Department and Kennewick Fire Department for bringing their trucks, joining the fun, and lending us a helping hand. Your presence made the day extra special for both our guests and our furry friends. 🐱🐶

We are so grateful for the community that continues to show up for the animals—it truly takes a team to make days like this possible. 💛

🐾✨ When we say we have a LOT of cats waiting for their forever homes—we’re not kidding! ✨🐾

Tri-Cities Animal Services is filled with cats and kittens of every age, color, and personality. From playful explorers ready to pounce, to sweet snugglers who just want a cozy nap—you’ll find your perfect match here.

Felines & Firefighters Adoption Event
1311 S. 18th Avenue, Pasco
Saturday, September 27 | 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.
All pets are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped
Adoption fee: $50 per pet

Meet local firefighters while you meet your new best friend!

And here’s the thing: there are even more cats and kittens waiting in the wings, because they’re still getting the extra care and preparation they need before they’re ready to meet a new family. If you don't fall in love on Saturday, come back any time during regular hours (Tuesday-Saturday, 10:00AM-5:00PM) to meet newly-available pets.

Don’t wait—these cats can’t wait to meet YOU!

🚨🐾 Urgent: Dog Walkers Needed! 🐾🚨

Every dog in our care relies on volunteers to get outside twice a day, 365 days a year. These walks aren’t just potty breaks—they’re a chance for fresh air, exercise, and a little joy in a shelter dog’s day.

Right now, we’re short on dog walkers. That means some days our pups are missing their second potty break and the extra time outside that makes such a difference for their health and happiness.

If you’ve ever thought about volunteering, this is the time! You’ll not only be helping a shelter dog, but you’ll also be giving yourself the gift of fresh air, exercise, and unconditional love. 🐶

👉 Must be 18+ to volunteer
👉 Quick + easy to submit an application: tricitiesanimalservices.com → Get Involved

Your time can mean the world to a shelter dog. Will you be the reason their tail wags today? 🐕✨

**🐾 The FIVe Who Wait 🐾**

Every cat deserves love. A warm bed. A window to watch the world go by. A human who calls them family.

But right now, five incredible FIV+ cats are still waiting at Tri-Cities Animal Services. One has been here for 134 days — watching others leave, hoping each day will be their day.

They’re gentle. Affectionate. Full of personality. But because they carry a label — FIV+ — they’re often overlooked.

What is FIV?
Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) is a virus that affects a cat’s immune system, similar to HIV in humans—but it is not contagious to people. FIV is most commonly spread through deep bite wounds, which is why outdoor, unneutered male cats who fight are at higher risk. It is not transmitted through casual contact like grooming or sharing food bowls, so FIV+ cats can often safely live with other cats, especially if introductions are managed carefully.
Cats with FIV can live long, healthy, happy lives, especially when kept indoors and given proper veterinary care. Though their immune system is weakened, many FIV+ cats thrive with love, routine vet visits, and a safe environment. Unfortunately, the stigma around FIV causes many wonderful cats to be overlooked, but their diagnosis doesn’t define the love and joy they can bring to a home.

These cats don’t know they’re “different.” They just know they want to be loved.

Please swipe through to meet our "FIVe." They’ve waited long enough. One of them might just be waiting for you 🐾

🐾 **Weekly Pawgress Report** 🐾
**Week of September 14–20, 2025**

This past week, 64 animals came into our care — and 40 found their way into loving homes ❤️
Thank you to everyone who adopted, fostered, shared, or supported us! You’re helping us save lives and make space for the next pets who need us 🐶🐱

📸 **Featured Pet: Purr-Vana**
Purr-Vana has been with us since **June 12, 2025**, and she’s patiently waiting for someone to finally say, *“you’re the one.”* She’s a confident, independent lady who knows what (and who) she likes — and isn’t afraid to let you know when she’s not impressed. She keeps watching tiny kittens go home while she waits… and waits. Purr-Vana deserves someone who’ll respect her space and love her on her terms. If that sounds like you, come meet her — she might just choose *you*. 💜

🐾 **If you didn’t know… now you do!** 🐾

The *ultimutt* end-of-summer bash went down this week at Memorial Aquatic Park in Pasco—and it was a **pawsitively splashtastic** evening! 💦🐶

Once a year, right before the pool closes for the season, it goes to the dogs—literally! From doggy paddles to cannonbarks, our four-legged friends were soaking up those *hot dog summer* vibes. 🌭☀️🐕

💛**Just a heads up**: None of these pups are available for adoption—they all came to the event accompanied by their loving owners! But if you’re looking for a furry best friend of your own, we’ve got some tail-wagging cuties at the shelter just waiting to meet you. 🐾🏠
Visit our website to view our adoptable dogs and cats! www.tricitiesanimalservices.com

Check out this highlight reel of all the splashes, zoomies, and joyful chaos!
If you missed the event this year, don’t worry—this paw-some tradition happens *every* summer and we’ll be there again next year in our TCAS booth! 🐾
Til next time... stay cool and keep waggin’!
