PLEASE NOTE: At this time, we are unable to take in pet surrenders.
2024 proved to be a very challenging year for us. We received hundreds of stray cats and dogs from our contacted municipalities. For this reason, we were unable to bring in pets from our very long 2024 wait list of pet surrenders. We will resume pet surrenders once we work through our existing list. Please reference the info below for rehoming options.
Rehoming a Pet
There are many reasons you might consider rehoming your pet and we understand that making this decision is very difficult. MAPS may be able to offer assistance so you can keep your pet or help you rehome your pet on your own. We are committed to working together to find the best possible solution for you and your pet. Please reach out to us if you have any questions.
Step One
Consider the reason you want to surrender your pet. Maybe you would like to keep your pet, but you need help solving a problem. Here’s some additional resources and options to help keep your pet.
Step Two
Review our Alternatives to Surrendering page for more information about rehoming your pet. We strongly encourage all owners to consider this information before contacting the shelter. We try to make the animals in our care as comfortable as possible, but the shelter is inherently a very stressful environment for pets.
Step Three
If you have exhausted all options for rehoming your own pet, you can reach out to other shelters and rescues in your area.
