Lancaster County Animal Shelter urges adoption, donations; lists hours and needed items
Summary
The county highlighted the Lancaster County Animal Shelter’s adoption, foster and donation needs and listed operating hours and suggested supplies.
Lancaster County officials highlighted services and volunteer needs at the Lancaster County Animal Shelter and encouraged adoption, fostering, volunteering and donations.
"Are you looking for a new furry friend? Look no further than the Lancaster County Animal Shelter," Glenn Moore said in the county recording. Moore described routine veterinary care at the shelter: animals are examined, spayed or neutered, dewormed and microchipped before adoption.
The recording invited the public to consider fostering, volunteering or donating; it listed suggested donated items including bleach, liquid laundry soap, dog and cat toys, blankets or towels, extra food and treats. County staff said monetary donations help pay medical treatment costs. The shelter’s weekday hours were stated as Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The recording did not provide current animal intake counts, adoption fees, or the shelter’s mailing address.
Officials framed adoption as a two-way benefit: "Adopting a pet from the Lancaster County Animal Shelter not only changes an animal's life, it changes your life," Moore said.
