Kumar the Magnificent

Kumar is a three year old, long-haired boy who has always been an indoor cat. He is as good-natured, playful, and friendly as he is handsome!

While at the shelter Kumar developed respiratory and eye infections, which probably resulted from the stress of shelter life. Mansfield Shelter Friends covered the veterinary expenses for surgery to repair Kumar's corneal ulcer, and Kumar recovered in a foster home. Now Kumar is back at the shelter and ready for a real home. Kumar is better than ever, and full of energy. His vision is not impaired and his eye looks completely normal.

Kumar is a sensitive cat who is susceptible to stress, and because stress was a major factor in his illness, a fairly calm home where he would be the only cat, and where there are no small children, would be best for him.

Kumar would be a wonderful, affectionate and entertaining pet!! He loves catnip mice, scratching pads, and chasing fish-pole toys. He loves to play, and would enjoy having an owner who will spend time dangling string toys for him to chase. Kumar enjoys and seeks human company. He enjoys being held and petted, and brushed. It will be a lucky person who adopts this wonderful cat!! Come meet this big boy.

Welcome!

The Mansfield Animal Shelter is one of the most active shelters in Southeastern Massachusetts. The shelter has one of the highest adoption rates and an excellent reputation.

With the exception of the Animal Control Officer, shelter animals are cared for every day of the year by a group of volunteers. Veterinary expenses are paid for by your donations and adoption fees, not by the Town of Mansfield, through the non-profit Mansfield Shelter Friends, Inc.

The shelter accepts only animals that are surrendered or found stray in the Town of Mansfield.

THANK YOU for Your Donations!!!!

Mansfield Shelter Friends, Inc. is very grateful to all the people who donate so generously. By sending in your checks you have made a difference in the care we can provide for the animals.

Although we would like to concentrate on the animals, not on money, fundraising is essential to achieving our goals in caring for the animals. Your donations help volunteers give shelter animals the veterinary care they need. Since the Town of Mansfield does not pay for veterinary expenses, Mansfield Shelter Friends uses donations and adoption fees to cover animals' medical expenses.

Bottle and Can  Recycling

Bring your clean, bagged, bottles and cans to the shelter for recycling. The profit will be used for food and medicine for the animals. Thank you.
