Shelters are often inundated with pet surrenders, and do not want to provide a simple outlet that takes away the obligation of responsible pet ownership. Therefore, they would prefer that people try hard to find a solution before resorting to surrendering their pet to a shelter. If you must find a new home for a pet, please try posting to our adoption portal before placing the burden on the shelter. Direct adoptions work well and allow everyone to share in the accountability of their community!
No-kill shelters do wonderful work, but as a result, are often inundated with pet surrenders. In the unfortunate scenario that you have to find a new home for your pet, please read through the rehoming solution and articles on this page before contacting the shelter.

I have several cats that I took care of and unfortunately, they became pregnant and grew. I have contacted the organizations so many times to please take the cats so they could have good homes, and they refused. They always told me that they were filled up. One organization actually told me to put them out but in a safe area. Recently my husband went into a home for dementia, and I am left here alone. I have to move and find myself a senior home. I am disabled. I have no idea what to do with the cats. Some are partially blind, and one is blind. Is there any one out there to help me? 717-406-7856
I have two American pit bulls, they both just turned 3 on March 8th. Beauty is a very lovable pet, she loves love and would be great for an elderly couple or a retired person. And she's a great guard dog. Beast is a deaf dog, but he is very aggressive, we now have a newborn in the home and scared to have him around her. We have no other choice but to get rid of him but I don't want him euthanized. I think he just needs to be retrained. He does great with my fiance but Beast thinks he's dominant over the females in the household bcuz we don't know how to train dogs. I need to know the price of taking them to a no kill shelter. Please help.
There are two elderly dogs at Philly ACCT on Hunting Park Ave who are scheduled for euthanized tonight. Their names are Tasha and Lily you can view them on Philly Urgent FB site. Please help!
I have a question. I have three dogs and lost at home and are unable to keep them. I tried two places and they said if they have a temper they will put them down. I don't know what to do. Please let me know if you can help. Ty Susan Franklin 717-742-7318.
