Would you consider fostering an animal in your home until a run becomes available!
Sometimes this only takes a few days, or it may be longer commitment. The Shelter
works with foster families to cover expenses in case there needs to be any veterinary
care. Currently we need homes for pregnant and nursing cats and kittens. Keeping
newborn kittens away from the shelter until they are old enough to receive
vaccinations helps to keep them healthy. Other times, we need a quiet place for an
animal recovering from surgeries or procedures. Because we are a no-kill shelter, we
often have to turn animals away when our cages are full. This is a great opportunity
for the animal lover who is hesitant to make the long-term commitment of adoption!
If you are interested please contact us: admin@mchswv.com or 366-5391.

Do you have an hour to spare during your
busy week? Come on down to the shelter and
walk a dog or cuddle a kitten. It'll do your
heart good and help us socialize the animals.
Your time is well spent - the animals appreciate
any time you have to give, and the more they
are socialized, the more adoptable they
become. It's win-win for man and beast! Click
here to print out a volunteer application, then
bring it with you to the shelter! (Click here for
directions to the shelter.) Or email us at
admin@mchswv.com for information on
volunteering. Would you like to be contacted
regarding a specific project? Do you have an
idea you'd like to suggest? Email us!
