Grant County Animal Outreach - Building Bridges for Second Chances

Your increased support for ads, combined with help from the Nickel Saver, and Columbia Basin Herald, is helping us break records in our fight for felines! Cat adoptions are hitting record levels since our humble beginnings on July 9th, 2007. Thanks to increased rescue efforts, and a new alliance with no-kill adoption agencies statewide, we are saving even more of these wonderful creatures. THANK YOU everyone, and remember to SPAY AND NEUTER, you will be saving hundreds of lives like the ones you see in this album!

This site is maintained by a volunteer who keeps the most up to date info on cat's available here in these albums. Please be sure to brouse through all of them! Cat's and Kittens currently up for adoption at Grant County Animal Outreach- Our low adoption fee of only $65 includes vaccinations, worming, spay or neuter, free microchip, and 30 days of pet insurance. This is a package worth over $180! Act quickly if you see someone you might like, our space is EXTREMLY LIMITED! "New Cats" are brand new additions to our adoption floor. Updates on residents appear here first, and we also put photo's up of our feline friends that are due to come available soon.

Watch for exciting details about how our cat room renovations are finally taking shape and how you can help! Upcoming fundraiser at the Grant County Fair includes a dime toss- VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!!

Some form of help is sometimes desperatly needed for these animals. Could be with a medical problem, or they may be in immediate need of a foster home due to injury, illness, or a safe place to have their babies. Each story includes photo's of the cat, and the date their story was posted. We try to update as soon as changes happen.

These cats are ready to go home today- Being part of our "Angel" program gives them a few extra benifits. They are already spayed or neutered, and vaccinated, and have recieved the feline leukemia vaccine as well. Adoption fee of $65 covers all that PLUS free microchipping, registration, and 30 day pet insurance. The money is then returned to the program to spay another cat from our general population when someone here gets a home. These cat's are residents of our Spay Angel Program, and live in our temporary "dorm" in the front of the shelter. Would you like to sponser a spay today? 2/01-UPDATE! We now treat cat's entering this room with Acarax, an ear mite medication, to keep our population healthy and mite free! 2/25-UPDATE! We also vaccinate for Feline Leukemia as well for cats coming into this room.

Some special pets need special attention. These animals will require people with big hearts, to love them, and accept them as imperfect, but then again, we all are!

No, it's not that they cost a nickel! These cats are/were featured in the Nickel Saver ! Check them out, they are sponsored by local businesses and people like you for only $27 for a FULL COLOR 2x2 ad! For the week of 3/13 - we had 8 of 9 cats adopted that appeared in this paper! Call Marilyn at 765-5681 to sponser a pet today!

Thanks to one of our lovely growing foster families, these animals may be up for adoption again soon. If you are interested in one of them, contact us at the shelter about their current status. If you would like to be considered for our foster list, please email us, or come by the shelter for an application!

These are our recent events to tell the public what we need, what we are doing, and to show them we are working hard to place as many animals as possible in forever homes!
