Hello, my name is Marvin, though I'm actually a girl. When I first arrived at the shelter, it was quite scary for me, but I quickly warmed up to my surroundings and my true personality began to shine. I can be quite vocal, especially when I notice food around. I'm still a little shy, so please approach me gently to avoid startling me, but I'm confident we'll get along just fine

Over 1,100 animals pass through our doors every year. Did you know that the average cost to get our animals ready to be adoptable is roughly $350 per animal? That is because we require our adoptables to be spayed/neutered and fully vaccinated before adopting out.
Population control and disease management are issues in our community that we are working hard to resolve. Your donations help ensure we can continue our mission.
We have an amazing team of hard working staff caring for our animals 7 days a week. They are supported by a group of engaged board members that are focused on bettering our organization.
