Molly's owner passed away and she is in need of a home. She is very affectionate and playful at times. Because of the situation we have very limited knowledge about her history. She would prefer a home where she could be the only pet- she would be a wonderful companion. No dogs is a must but one other cat may be okay as long as her new owner understands there may be an adjustment period while she learns to share her space. Molly is estimated to be around 6 years old. Her adoption fee is $50.00. Please complete an application at https://form.jotform.com/211588093061051 and a staff member will reach out to schedule a time to meet Molly. You must have an appointment for adoption meet and greets.

Here's a Friday afternoon update.

Remember, just because there are only a handful of animals for adoption, those are not the only animals we are caring for. Because we provide animal control services, there is a constant rotation of animals and their status changes. There are currently 79 animals in the shelter and here is how that works out:
7 are adoption ready
14 are related to court cases and we have to hold them until the cases are resolved. This can be a few weeks to years- our longest case to date was 30 months.
32 are not ready for adoption yet due to medical reasons. This could be an illness or injury or nursing moms with babies that are not yet weaned.
23 animals were surrendered by their owners in the past 3 days. Those animals still have to see the vet and be cleared both medically and behaviorally before they are ready for adoption.
3 animals are being held for quarantine following an animal to human bite. Quarantine is required by state law.
