Stephen Memorial Animal Shelter December 18
Sophie is ready for a home from Stephen Memorial Animal Shelter
Making a quick stop to Stephen Memorial Animal Shelter will be one of the highlights of your Christmas season.
There are many animals looking for homes, and thankfully many you see here are in adoption or pre-adoption stages. The animal you see may soon find a different home if you wait.
One of the first I will spotlight is Sophie.
Sophie was picked up as a stray and has been at the shelter for about 2 weeks. Nearly 90% of of the animals at Stephen Memorial are there because they are strays. Many of these guys could be victims of the hard economy as families are forced into decisions.
Sophie loves to play, and loves people. She needs some help with training yet as she’s still a lot of puppy. Help make her Christmas and yours one to remember.
Sugar wants to nap under your Christmas tree this year
Next we have a cat named Sugar. Sugar’s favorite thing to do is sleep. She would make an excellent lap cat. She came to be at Stephen Memorial as a stray.
Cats are only $35.00 right now. What an excellent time to help out a good cause and bring some fun into your home.
ADOPTING A FRIEND
Interested in adopting a new best friend? There is an adoption application to submit at least 24 hours prior to adoption (waiting period may be waived at the Director’s discretion). If you live out of town you may request an application by email: smasadoptions@mahaska.org. You may also use the PDF link below to print out the application. After you complete it, please fax it to 641-672-9347. Or, download the WORD version to save, complete, and email the application as an attachment. (If you send it by email, don’t worry about the signature line.) We will contact you after we receive your application.
Help make Christmas even more special by bringing home a new family member.
Completing an application does not obligate you to adopt; it just puts you next in line for that particular pet. We place temporary “holds” on pets based on the order of applications received. (Please understand that we try to give every pet every chance for a good home and are in constant need of kennel space; therefore, we cannot normally “hold” a pet for longer than 24 hours.) If you have any questions, please call. Thank you very much for choosing the adoption option!
