Paws and Claws HSWC Newsletter
We’re excited to re-vamp our Humane Society Newsletter! Paws and Claws will be published twice a year and sent out through email. Our newsletter used to go out quarterly, but since our social media and website are so active, we thought it’ll be bigger and better just twice a year. Paper copies will be available upon request.
Sign up below to keep up to date with all the great things happening at the shelter!
Fosters Needed!
Kitten season is here and we are in desperate need of fosters for kittens, bottle babies, and mothers with litters. If you are interested in being our hero and becoming a foster, please fill out the application and send it to adopti[email protected]!
If you would like to contribute financially to help with the cost of the kittens medical needs, we would graciously accept cash, checks, card payments over the phone, or through the PayPal link on our website.We are in need of Purina Kitten Chow, Miracle Nipples, milk replacer, and cat toys. Please see our Chewy and Amazon Wishlists to order these items.
We need fosters on deck for our pups too! If you’d even like to take one of our shelter dogs for a day trip to Pemberton Park, Assateague, or for a sleepover in your home please fill out the foster application for approval to do so. The more time our dogs spend out of their kennel the better!
You can find the Foster Application below and the Cat and Dog Adoption Applications on the corresponding Adopt page.
