🐾 Holiday Magic at the Shelter! 🎅✨

The holiday spirit has officially arrived, and our furry friends couldn't be happier! We’ve had some very special guests and incredible community support that we just have to share.

🎅 A Visit from the North Pole

Santa Claus and his Elf made an early stop at the shelter this week! They didn’t come empty-handed—they brought a sleigh-full of toys to hand out one by one. From joyful jumps to happy purrs, our dogs and cats were over the moon with their new gifts! 🎾🐭

🍲 A Holiday Feast

A massive thank you to VCA Charities for donating special holiday meals for all our residents. We’ll be serving these up next week, and let’s just say the "quality control team" has already been sniffing and pawing in anticipation! 😋

🎁 We Need Your Help: Toy & Supply Drive

We are extremely grateful for the outpouring of love we’ve received so far. To ensure every pet has a bright holiday and a head start on the New Year, our Toy and Pet Supply Drive is still going strong!

If you’d like to donate, and you're not close to the shelter in Troutdale, you can find our donation boxes "out and about" at these wonderful local spots:

  • Portland Community College Campus
  • Fremont Vet Clinic
  • VCA Laurelhurst Vet Clinic
  • Mt. Tabor CrossFit
  • The Practice Space (Yoga/Pilates)
  • Mt. Tabor Veterinary Care

Heartfelt thanks to our dedicated volunteers and donors. You are the reason our shelter pets feel so loved this season. 🐾❤️
