** KITTEN CAM ** Watch for the 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 life-saving medical care for our cats and dogs. Thank you FAYMAS for helping to keep our kittens healthy!

October was one of our best adoption months in years, and it couldn't have come at a better time! With dozens and dozens of kittens like Tater and Pecan coming into the shelter, and a sadly a very large number of dogs like Lady being dumped in our area parks, we are facing a critical need for adoptions.

We will be open today starting at 11 a.m., with meet & greets available throughout the day until 2:30 p.m. Our shelter is located in the City of Puyallup, just a short distance away from the South Hill Mall. We have awesome dogs and are adding new kittens to the adoption room every day!

It's no secret that medical care for pets is very expensive, and it can be very challenging to pay for treatments and medications for sick or injured pets. When dogs or cats come into our shelter with special medical needs, we depend on our Friends at your Metro Animal Shelter to provide financial support for critical care.

And now they urgently need your help! Please visit their page to learn more about how you can volunteer for their organization, become a F.A.Y.M.A.S. member, or make a donation that will 100% be used for medical care. They are a trusted local 501(c)3 non-profit, with no paid employees, and many of them volunteer at our shelter and foster animals for us.

Check them out and see how you can help to provide life-saving care for dogs and cats in our community!

We had a special arrival at the shelter this week, and now have a need for donations of wet puppy food to help care for our new guests. With lots of little mouths to feed, we are hoping for donations from our community of canned lamb/rice wet puppy food. It is especially helpful if they are Pedigree or Purina brands, so we can provide our pups with consistent diet - their tummies and our hearts will greatly appreciate it!

Want to make a donation online and ship directly to the shelter? Chewy, Amazon, and Walmart make it so easy for you and us! Check out our wishlists below:
