The next time you need to park at BHS, you can thank MRB Line Striping LLC. for making your path to adoption so clear. These kind folks offered to give our lot a glow-up FOR FREE, helping us preserve our resources for the pets in our shelter. Gifts like this are an important part of keeping the work of animal welfare running smoothly and we are SO grateful! Here's a before and after. We think you'll agree that the difference is paws-itively awesome! Thank you, MRB!!!

Kitten (and puppy) season is heating up! But we've got lots of adult dogs and cats that need homes, too. Here are just a few reasons why you should adopt from Bangor Humane Society.

MATCH CHALLENGE! PLEASE HELP US RAISE $10,000!!

Kirby's owner has pledged to match every donation, dollar for dollar, up to $5,000. PLUS, for every $25 (or more), we will add a beloved pet's name to Kirby's Kickstarter placard, which will hang in the shelter for the next year. It can be in memory of a pet, or the name of one still living. Celebrate the powerful love of our pets by helping those at the shelter that still need our help.

Click below to donate and be sure to add your pet's name in the comments box! https://donations.bangorhumane.org/give/343562/ #!/donation/checkout

Update 5/19: Ember, Patches, and Pistachio have all been adopted! Ernie is inexplicably still here! Come meet him!

We have pocket pets!

We've got three rabbits, some of whom have been here for a while! One of them even had a guest appearance with Kathryn on WABI and he somehow didn't get adopted!

Rabbits are awesome pets. They do require daily care and they need socialization just as much as cats or dogs. In fact, cats in particular can get along really nicely with rabbits! Rabbits love being outside as long as they're safely fenced in or on a leash (yes, some rabbits enjoy walking on a leash!). And if you've never gotten kisses from a bunny after they've eaten fresh basil, you're missing out.

Plus, we have a friendly parakeet named Pistachio, a charming and social little gal who would love to sing you a song about her adventures.

Please come meet these rascally friends and see if they could be the right fit for your family!
