What can you do to help the animal shelter?

After shutting down take-ins for a few days due to overcrowding, the Washington County/Johnson City Animal Shelter take-in center has reopened its doors.

But shelter officials are still asking for help from the community.

There was a big crowd at the shelter during my visit, and it wasn’t just people milling about. People were there to be involved.

Wednesday afternoons are not the optimum time to visit the shelter. The lobby and adoption center are closed, so visitors are not able to get inside to see the dogs and cats available for adoption - that means the animals have little or no human Jun 14, 2018 at 12:28 PM

Mittens is one of the cutest things you’ll ever see at a shelter —a seven-week-old male Polydactyl Tabby (black, gray, and white) who is just about the sweetest kitten I’ve ever been around. He is playful and curious, and has a rambunctious look in his eye that says he wants to play. And he has extra toes, so you can spend hours counting together. Take him home!

WCJC Animal Shelter, May 25

Things at the shelter this week were hot and muggy, and the volunteers on hand to walk dogs and take care of cats were obviously feeling it - but they were still there and still working hard to make sure these prospective pets get as much May 25, 2018 at 3:26 PM

Si is one of three ten-to-twelve-week-old female Huskies (Se and Sa are the other two) at the shelter right now, and none of the three are adjusting very well. Timid and scared, and in need of space, she is also adorable and sweet and loving. If anyone could provide this beauty with a good home and an active lifestyle, that would be wonderful. If someone could take all three...? That would be amazing. You can visit the Washington County/Johnson City Animal Shelter at 3411 N. Roan St., or visit online at wcjcanimalshelter.org.

Rosetta is a laid back sort for a rabbit. This calico-coated, long-eared adult female still has the heavy breathing associated with her species, but she’s not overly excited or nervous with people. She’d make a great addition to any rabbit-friendly family. You can visit the Washington County/Johnson City Animal Shelter at 3411 N. Roan St., or visit online at wcjcanimalshelter.org.

It was pouring down pretty hard during my visit to the shelter yesterday, so I wanted to get inside as soon as possible. I happened to visit on a Wednesday, however, and Wednesdays are not the best days for visits, it seems.
