 Featured Shelter Pets

Although ALL the pets at Mansfield Animal Shelter deserve loving homes, there are some animals that we especially hope will find homes soon. These animals have either been at the shelter too long (any amount of time in a cage is too long) or don't adjust well to shelter life. Please consider giving a home to these special pets.

Please come visit Me.
I'm just waiting for YOU to rescue Me!



Featured Cat: Buckwheat

Buckwheat is an affectionate boy who wants nothing more than to be let out of his cage and to enjoy human affection. He’s been at the shelter for almost half a year, waiting for someone to give him a loving home. He’s got a great personality: he’d probably be a lap cat, and he seems to get along with cats as well as people. He was surrendered with another cat when their owner could no longer care for them, and he has always lived indoors. Visitors to the shelter pass over Buckwheat because he’s twelve years old, and needs a tiny half of a thyroid pill twice a day. But he's active and playful, seems to be in good health, takes his pill easily in food, and has lots of love to give. Please come see him.

Chiia, the last featured cat, was adopted!

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. We adopt more animals to non-town residents than we do to Mansfield residents.

The old sludge plant maintenance building was established as the Town Shelter in 1987 after a group of concerned citizens petitioned the Board of Selectmen for a site for stray and surrendered animals. Used primarily for dogs in the early years, the shelter today handles both dogs and cats.

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 donated 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, and your donations also help us with the new shelter building fund.
