**URGENT KITTEN SAFETY MESSAGE** Found kittens and not sure what to do?!? Do not bring them to the shelter immediately. The shelter is currently overwhelmed with litters of very young kittens being brought in without their mamas, and it is impacting the safety of these kittens. Please call our staff first so we can help assess the situation and advise on what is best for the kittens.If you have found newborn or young kittens, please leave them alone! Mama cats are very protective of their kittens and rarely abandon them; if you don’t see the mama, they are probably close by their babies and will be back soon. Newborn kittens are especially vulnerable when separated from their mamas, and will struggle to survive without them.Want to help our kittens?!? We are seeing unprecedented numbers of kittens being brought into our shelter. We urgently needs donations of non-clumping kitty litter, wet kitten food, and dry kitten food; donations can be dropped off or shipped directly to our shelter.

Three cheers for our special senior Doug for getting adopted - hip hip hooray!!!!! And many more cheers for all of our dogs and cats that were adopted this week from the Metro Animal Shelter in Puyallup.

With our shelter completely overwhelmed with strays and abandoned animals this week, it has been a tough week for our staff and volunteers. We needed adoptions BIG TIME. And thank goodness those adoptions happened.

We are still at capacity for dogs and cats -- and still need many more adoptions to keep up with the amount of animals coming in -- but all these adoptions sure lifted our spirits. Thank you to our community for your support!
