Kent County Animal Shelter - Relocating (click for more info)

The Kent County Animal Shelter is preparing for a temporary relocation, and is in urgent need for residents to foster or adopt available pets in preparation for the move.

The relocation will take place on January 21st and be completed mid-March, so they can complete renovations at their current shelter.
During this process, stray animals will still be accepted, but they will be limiting owned-animal intakes.
The Kent County Animal Shelter will still provide resources such as care supplies, food, and other rehoming needs.
They are committed to their policy of not euthanizing healthy adoptable animals for space or length of stay, but they need the communities help to achieve that.
More information is available online at Access Kent Dot Com Slash Department Slash Animal Shelter.
