OUR SHELTER IS FULL SO WE HAVE A FAVOR TO ASK!

If you find a stray animal, please consider keeping it in your home while we search for their owners. We are FULL and need to open up kennels for emergency situations.

We ask that you still bring the found animal into the shelter so we can complete paper work, provide vaccines, and look over the animals health. We will be happy to provide you with food, a bed, or any other supplies you may need. Then you would just look over the animal in your own home until the owner is found or the dog is ready to go up for adoption. This will help us open up the much needed kennel space.

If you have any questions regarding lost or found pets please give us a call (leave a voicemail if necessary) and we will get back to you asap!

As the temperatures are starting to drop, and it is getting very cold out, Animal Care & Control has a couple of reminders for you!
- Bring your animals inside (even a garage is better than outdoors).
- Animals need shelter, heated water (so it doesn't freeze), plenty of food, and ideally a source of heat.
- If you are concerned about an animal, please call sooner rather than later. Ideally, you would want to call Animal Care & Control (509) 888-7283 (888-SAVE), before it gets too cold in the evening! If the line is busy or goes to voicemail, PLEASE leave a voicemail with your name, number, and the address you have concerns about.

Thank you for doing your part in ensuring that our pets stay warm this Winter!

All animals feel the effects of smoke, especially those who live outside all year round. Owners of livestock should give extra attention to animals who are out in smoky weather throughout the day, including having a livestock evacuation plan ready.

When it comes to our dogs and cats who may venture outside for long periods of time, it is best to keep them inside as much as possible when smoke is affecting the air quality. With that in mind, brief bathroom breaks are best when trying to keep pets safe on poor air quality days.

Coffee cans needed! If you happen to have any old coffee cans taking up space on your kitchen shelves, we'd love to take them off your hands. Coffee cans are used when we are out on calls that involve bats, so the smaller/medium size cans work perfectly for this!

If you'd like to donate any cans you may have, you can drop them off at the Wenatchee Valley Humane Society on the benches or ring the bell to let staff know you have some for ACC!
