Military Foster Care

 Previous military deployments have often been accompanied by increased levels of animals being taken to animal shelters but a call to duty doesn't have to mean giving up your pet. Many soldiers have chosen the option of foster care for their animals. Oftentimes a family member or friend is able to foster for a time, but in the event that no one is available, check out this website for organizations specializing in placing military pets into foster care:

There is an urgent need for newspapers, litter boxes and canned cat food at the shelter. 

 

adopt_logosmallThe Friends of Virginia Beach Animal Control was founded by caring and concerned citizens of Virginia Beach who want to help the animals in our municipal shelter. Each year, the City of Virginia Beach takes thousands of unwanted, stray, surrendered or animals seized in enforcement actions into the municipal animal shelter.  Many of these animals are friendly, healthy and highly adoptable and would make a wonderful addition to your family! Please visit our animals page to see the animals that are currently available for adoption at Virginia Beach Animal Control.
