Kitty & Puppy Party

Stay cool with cuddly canines and kittens! Throughout the summer, we’re opening our space to all who need a “cuteness break” with puppies, kittens, and adoptable dogs during the workday. Stop by our shelter on select dates and, for a small donation, you’ll get extra doses of animal affection to get you to the weekend.
