It's no secret that cats love boxes, and our shelter kitties especially love these ones... they are adoption boxes! This little lady got one last peek on her way out of the shelter and off to her forever home. So cute!

*PET OF THE WEEK - AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION*

Double the fun! Double the snuggles! Double the love!!!!

Are you looking for a dynamic duo of kitties to join your family? Look no farther, because we are just the right fit for you!

Our names are Dash and Lily, and as a bonded pair of twins, we do EVERYTHING together. All of the staff and volunteers here at the shelter love to watch us play together, sleep together, eat together, snuggle together… yep, we are inseparable!

We came into the shelter back in September, after a nice lady found us wandering around the city of Puyallup looking for a safe place to stay. At the shelter we got cleaned up, had our vaccinations and our alterations done. And after spending lots of playing with the volunteers, we are ready to be adopted together into a loving forever home.

So make a dash over to the Metro Animal Shelter in Puyallup to see us today! The shelter is open Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays, with “meet & greets” available from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

"I lost my cat! Are you the right shelter that it would be at?"

"I found a cat! Are you the right shelter for me to take it to?"

If you live in the city limits of Puyallup, Sumner, Bonney Lake, Milton, Edgewood, Pacific or Algona, then the answer is YES!

If you live outside of these city's limits in unincorporated Pierce County, or your live in a city not listed here, the answer is NO! While we can help you with cat adoptions (YES! YES! YES!), for lost and found cats outside of our service map, please visit our friends at the Humane Society in Tacoma.

** KITTEN CAM ** Watch for a surprise at the end, as these three very curious kittens check out our cameras.

As you watch the video, you may notice that it looks a bit hazy... that is because we use plexiglass sneeze guards on our kitten kennels to prevent the spread of respiratory infections.

These sneeze guards were generously donated to our shelter by our Friends at your Metro Animal Shelter, which is a local non-profit that provides funding to pay for lifesaving medical care for our cats and dogs. Thank you FAYMAS for helping to keep our kittens healthy!
