Rhode Islanders, we have the perfect dog for you! Bitsy is embracing every last second of New England summer and says it can continue all year long if you adopt her and her lobster costume. 🦞

This fun-loving, young girl actually loves the water and splashing around in her kiddie pool. ☀️ We would love to see her in a home so she can enjoy some of Rhody summer rather than sitting at the shelter. 😔

If you would like to meet Bitsy, please reach out! ✨ You can stop by the Exeter Animal Shelter with any questions or contact them at either 401-294-2754 / [email protected]. The shelter is located at 169 South County Trail, Exeter, RI 02822. Their hours are Tues & Thurs 3-6pm / Wed, Fri, Sat & Sun 9-1pm. 🐾❤

Kittens, kittens! Here is a peek at some of the kittens currently available for adoption. 💕

If you’re interested in adopting a kitten, please stop by the shelter to complete an application!

Please note that kittens do best when adopted in pairs or into a home with another playful cat/dog. 🐾
