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.

Hi, Our beloved indoor/outdoor cat, Peaches, is missing. She went out Sunday night but has not come back, which is very unusual. She is 13 years old, and is a dainty, friendly, orange and white tabby. She usually sticks around our house or the neighbors' houses on each side of us but we're concerned the storms may have scared her and she sought shelter. She has a tag with her name and our number on it. We live around Willowbend and Rampart, close to Maplewood pool and Westbury Baptist.
