Thursday, September 22nd, 2011Companion (pet-friendly) Hurricane Shelter Update
Friday, August 26th, 2011Just a quick reminder about the “Companion (pet friendly) Hurricane Shelter” at Newport Middle School, owners must stay at this shelter also. You may not “drop off” pets or leave them in someone else’s care. Bring your pet a supply of food, medication, and anything else it might need for a couple of days. This includes a collar and leash as dogs may not be out of their kennel unleashed. These items are not provided. At this time it’s raining hard so remember also to place these items in something waterproof and not a paper bag. Pets must also leave the hurricane shelter with their owner. If you need help getting pets inside please come in and ask. Please come early and remain calm! “HappyCat”

Thursday, August 25th, 2011Newport Middle School Companion (pet-friendly) shelter will open Friday at 1pm. If you are planning to bring your pet with you remember to have a copy of the rabies certificate, food, meds, and any pet supplies (leashes, collars, puppy pads…) you need. You must be staying at the same shelter. Bring small dogs/cats/small furries in carriers. Large dogs not in carriers for obvious reasons. Kennels are provided once you’re at the shelter. Be calm and remember that your pet senses your anxiety and will also become upset. We love your pets and want you all to stay safe.
