The holidays are upon us, and it’s a perfect time to spread a little extra love to the animals in our care. Donations of pet food or litter are truly appreciated and make a real difference in our small shelter. We’re endlessly grateful for this community and the support you continue to show us.

If you’d like to learn more or have any questions, please give us a call — we’d love to chat. And while you’re at it, ask us about our Sponsor-a-Spay program! It’s a simple way to help local pets stay healthy and find their way home.

To make an appointment to visit the Pets of the Week, call the Homer Animal Shelter at 907-235-3141.
