The Bonnie L. Hays Small Animal Shelter is a busy place.
Our shelter staff cared for about 2,000 lost, stray, abandoned or neglected animals last year. We’re open to the public six days a week, and are here to feed and care for the animals 365 days a year.
It’s easy to feel that working with stray and abandoned animals is an impossible task. The good news – and what keeps us feeling optimistic – is that we are part of thousands of success stories every year.
When animals are lost, we work very hard to find their owners. Last year, we reunited almost 1000 dogs and cats with their worried families. When owners don’t claim their animals, or when owners relinquish their pets to the shelter, we find adoptable animals loving new homes.
