Cats and dogs of various types were on display as they waited for someone to give them a new home. During the event, residents from both Pike and Mingo counties were helping the animal shelter make some room for new arrivals. Right now, we have several dogs and cats available, young and old, puppies, kittens and adults. We have quite a few that had been with us for a little while, so we're trying to promote them, get them adopted. We have quite a few cats as well that have been with us for a while. Cats tend to go a little bit faster than the dogs, especially the adult dogs. We are adopting out to all kinds of different people, and since we're so close to the Mingo County line, Pike County and Mingo residents are coming, which is a great thing. The Pike County Animal Shelter makes sure to keep their animals healthy and happy. If someone is interested in adopting, they try to find an ideal match for the owner. We are one of the few no-kill shelters in the area, and we tend to fill up really quickly because everybody wants them to go to a no-kill shelter. So, when we get full, we like to do a lot more promoting, and that's why we're doing this now. We really work hard at it. We talk to the people who come in and try to find out what environment the animal will be in. If they have a fence yard, if they have other animals, if they have children, we try to pair them up with a dog or cat that suits their needs. We'd love to invite everybody to come in and look at our shelter. We are nice, neat, clean. The animals are very well cared for. Reporting from Outantop News, I'm Nick Colum.
