Community Insights and Support for Manatee County Shelter Animals

Compassion for Our Shelter Animals

Shelter animals require special care to provide enrichment for homeless, neglected, abused, or unwanted animals. Many of the dogs at the Manatee Shelter had a loving home, but find themselves without when their owner passed away. Others were abandoned or dumped, and some were saved from being further neglected or abused. Some dogs have been at the shelter for months, others for years, all waiting for their forever loving home.

MCAW is designed to provide temporary homes for these animals. Fostering opens up room for another animal in need. Fostering gives an animal relief from the isolated life in a shelter. Fostering enables you both to bond, making adoption a joyful experience with your new friend.

GIVE THE GIFT OF HOPE, ADOPT A RESCUE.
