Devon

 Feline friends remember Devon. He was adopted about a month ago.

Adopter:

He is a perfect kitty, gets along with my bengal! He is a real lover, smart, and happy. Thank you for all your help!

Bosco

 Our adorable Bosco went to Pei People Rescue today! With his checkered past he was just not adoptable at our shelter but thanks to our wonderful volunteer Ellen she was able connect him with a rescue that understands him a little better and will find him his forever home.

New shelter

 

All,

With construction on the new facility now underway, I’m sure that everyone is interested in monitoring the progress and seeing what’s going on but for safety reasons, it is important that you not venture on to the construction site itself.

To satisfy your curiosity, however, a web cam has been installed overlooking the job site and it regularly posts time lapse photos which you’re free to check out. When you visit the site, you can choose to look at just the activity over last 24 hours, or you can see the progress over a longer period of time. Since we just started construction, there’s not too much to look at just yet. As we get farther along, though, you might want to go back and watch the progress over a week, one month, or even since the beginning of the project.

You can view the web cam footage HERE, by right clicking and following the link.

Ground breaking today!

 

All,

 

For the last couple of years we have been putting a lot of work into getting all of the cities to buy into building a new shelter, securing the funding, and then developing and fine tuning the architectural design. That process was completed little earlier this fall and we then submitted our design plans for review by all of the various regulatory agencies and entities in order to get the necessary permits and approvals to move forward with construction.

 

So, I wanted to take this opportunity and let you all know that as of about 15 minutes ago, we have received the Notice to Proceed which is the official permitting approval to begin construction!

 

With that, you can expect to see grading and the first phases of actual construction beginning next week.

 

If all goes well, we’re still on schedule to occupy the new facility in the first half of 2022.

 

Great last couple days for the shelter!

 We have had several adoptions, redemptions and return to owner animals this week. YEAH!
