Read about the Adoption Outreach Event on August 19, 2023, hosted at the Oregon Rail Heritage Center. 10 animals were adopted! We're grateful for the support of volunteers, staff, and our community.
Chair Jessica Vega Pederson announced the next steps in her promise to conduct a detailed review of MCAS and begin work to address years of longstanding structural and management challenges.
MCAS will reopen for in-person adoptions on January 11. Learn what to expect when you visit the shelter to meet adoptable pets, and how to prepare for adoption.
Studies show that interacting with animals can have health benefits, including reducing blood pressure, cholesterol, stress, and anxiety.

We're sending a huge "Round of Apaws" and a heartfelt thank you to Dawb, the owner of Rub-a-Dub Dog Wash in Gresham, for her incredible generosity and kindness to give Coco a much needed bath!
