"Senior" Discount - 
Lowering our fees for Senior Pets

Upcoming Events
Please join us.
We are lowering our adoption fee for senior cats and dogs.  Our regular fee is $55 for a dog, and $40 for a cat.  If you adopt a pet over 5 years old, we will lower the fee by $10.  If that senior pet is already neutered, another $5 will be deducted, for a total possible savings of $15.  In addition, for senior citizens who adopt one of these senior pets, we will allow another $5 off the fee.  Senior pets, who through no fault of their own find themselves homeless, are in many cases already housebroken, and are usually quite well-mannered.  They are certainly very deserving of a loving home, and we want to give them every opportunity to find one.  If you are interested in one of our adult pets, ask if he or she qualifies for the "Senior Discount".

Teach Kids to Care   ~  Adopt-A-Classroom   
     Helping stray, abused, and abandoned animals in our community is our number-one goal. But rescuing, sheltering and adopting animals isn’t enough. We also need to teach our youngest citizens the basics of responsible pet care and the value of treating people and animals with kindness and respect. That’s why your support for our Adopt-A-Classroom is so vital.
     For each $30 tax-deductible contribution you make to our Adopt-A-Classroom program, you’ll provide an entire Marshall County elementary school classroom with Kind News, an award-winning classroom newspaper that teaches children to be kind to people, animals, and the earth.
     Last year we were able to supply Kind News to every first grader in Marshall County - 36 classroom  subscriptions in all. If you would like to help the Adopt-a-Classroom program, please call the shelter at 574-936-8300 and help keep this program going for the coming school year.
     To read more about the Kind News newsletter, and the national Adopt-A-Classroom program, go to http://www.kindnews.org.
