Keeping Eyes Wide Open for a New Home at Missoula Humane Society

Sweet and petite. That's a combination that we hope finds this adorable little gal a home real soon.

It was another Take Me Home Tuesday here at our studios, sponsored locally by our animal loving pals at Paul's Pancake Parlor in Missoula. Janet from the Humane Society of Western Montana introduced us to Mary Ellen, who is only one-and-a-half to two years old. Janet says she is a super-sweet, loving and delicate small cat. She has been at the shelter for awhile now, just like many of the cats and kittens currently waiting for adoption. She is spayed and vaccinated, so if you've been thinking it's time for a kitty to bring joy to your home, you definitely need to pay a visit to the shelter and meet Mary Ellen.

CONVENIENT DROP-OFF PLACES FOR DONATIONS

Even if you are not looking to adopt right now, the Humane Society is always so appreciative of donations of food and other pet essentials. If you don't want to drive to the shelter, there are large donation drop-off boxes at Denny Menholdt University Honda on South Reserve and at the Missoula Petco location in South Crossing on Brooks Street.

NEED FREE ITEMS FOR YOUR PETS? TRY THE PANTRY

Janet reminded us that the shelter has a pantry, stocked by generous donations mentioned above. People who might not be able to afford pet needs can come into the lobby area of the shelter and take food, leashes, towels, blankets and other items.

The Humane Society of Western Montana is open from 1:00 p.m. till 6:00 p.m. Wednesdays through Sundays, located at 5930 U.S. Highway 93 South, Missoula. See lots of the dogs and cats waiting to be adopted here.

It was wonderful meeting Mary Ellen, and we hope she finds her forever home soon.
