SMALL FRIENDS PET SHELTER
The Small Friends Pet Shelter was started by a group of high school students and their parents when they started to see many pets that were left behind after their families moved away.
Today, there are about 70 cats, 50 dogs, three rabbits, and a few turtles living at the shelter. The young people who run the shelter work hard to keep the place clean, take care of the animals, and advertise the animals so that they can be adopted.
They have already helped to find homes for nearly 200 animals. It is hard work, but the young people working at the shelter think it is worth it.
So if you find a pet that is lost, call the young people at Small Friends Pet Shelter! And if you want to help out, go and volunteer your time and love. That is what the animals really need most.
