Multnomah County Animal Services (MCAS) is an animal rescue shelter and an animal control agency. Responsible for the city of Portland and neighboring communities in Multnomah County, our officers are responsible for performing animal abuse and cruelty investigations. We also offer dog and cat licensing, lost and found pet services, and animal adoptions through our shelter in Troutdale.
News and Announcements
K103 Pets of the Week: Porter and Percy
Porter and Percy were our K103 Pets of the Week today! They're brothers that came in to the shelter together but will adjust and flourish once separated. Shy at first, once you connect with them, they are sold on you (lots of licks, kisses, and wiggles). We know these boys will be great canine citizens when they complete their required classes. You may view Porter and Percy's profiles here.
K103 Pet of the Week: Chaka
Chaka was our K103 Pet of the Week today!She's loyal, mature, housetrained and well behaved. She's also playful and gets along well with children. She needs to be the only pet in her new forever home. As a bonus, she will provide free squirrel patrol for your yard! Chaka is available for adoption right now.
K103 Pet of the Week: Emily
Emily was the K103 Pet of the Week and she is quite a little gem! She is a plushy soft girl with big, black spots on her white fur and big, gold eyes set in a cute, round little face. She is as sweet as she is pretty, and loves to cuddle and purr. Emily has lovely house manners, is tidy, and tolerates other cats - she's a dignified girl and expects other cats to act the same. She should also do well with respectful children, as she is quite tolerant of being handled.
K103 Pets of the Week: Carla and Donnie
Are you looking for some bunny to love? Meet Carla and Donnie- our K103 Pets of the Week! Donnie is very social, litterbox-trained, and just 7 months old. Carla is a little shy, but she's improving with all the attention she's getting. You can view Donnie's profile here and Carla's profile here.
115+ Dogs Helped by MCAS Foster Homes in 2011
MCAS is fortunate to have an amazing network of volunteers and foster families for our shelter animals. In 2011, more than 115 dogs received extra TLC by foster families. Dogs that go into foster care may be in need of some quiet time away from the stress of the kennels or may need a little extra training before being adopted out. Some dogs have illnesses or injuries they need to recuperate from and some dogs are just too young or too timid to be on the adoption floor.
