Extending a HUGE thank you to the volunteers at Kids Give Back for their generous donation of handmade cat toys and treat bags! Their hard work means kitties will enjoy toys at the shelter and extra goodies when they're adopted 💙

This week, we were honored to help our friends at the Community Cat Alliance by taking in some of their kitties! Thank you to Lydia for driving them here and delivering some delicious peanut brittle for our team too. Working with other animal welfare groups across Virginia means we're changing and saving more lives, together 💙

You help make these partnerships possible by adopting and fostering. Consider taking home a companion for Labor Day Weekend!

Naughty & Nice Pet of the Week 😈 🐾

It's that time of the week again! Here's who's been naughty and nice this week:

🪽 Nice Pet: Trixie earns her spot as nice pet of the week for being so polite and well-mannered when she goes out for public dog walks!

🥸 Naughty Pet: Jack earns his spot as naughty pet of the week for continuing to serenade his friends (and us) despite being tone-deaf. Maybe we need to get him some lessons?

💌 Interested in adopting or fostering one of this week's pets? Drop us a line to [email protected] or stop by the shelter at 2650 S Arlington Mill Dr. Arlington, VA 22206

It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s a flying squirrel 🛸 🐿️

This week, our Wildlife Resource Center is caring for the cutest baby flying squirrel! Flying squirrels are known to be nocturnal and are excellent parents. So, finding this little one out in the open is unusual. But, our little friend is in excellent hands at AWLA 💙
