Litter season is here again, and we are in need of canned puppy and kitten food, as well as kitten formula, puppy milk replacer, blankets, towels, bleach, toys, and treats. Our commercial washing machine just broke, and we DESPERATELY need a new one!***************SPECIAL NOTE**********************
New! Adopt a dog and get free food for a month from Pedigree! Once you've adopted, go to this website:

A local student has challenged ALL students in Carter County to donate $2 to the New Shelter Building Fund. Will you help the animals by donating your $2 today? (Elizabethton-Carter County Animal Shelter Building Committee Fund, c/o Carter County Bank, P.O. Box 1990, Elizabethton, TN 37643.) Every dollar helps!

Our dogs love to sleep on Kuranda Dog beds, but we don't have enough for everyone. The ones that work best for us are the 3x2 PVC, and the 4x5 chew-proof vinyl beds. If you would like to donate a bed at a special wholesale price for a another dog to sleep in comfort, please click here.

When you adopt a shelter animal, you can get a low-cost voucher for the first vet visit, shots, and spay/neuter at a local veterinarian's office. Ask about it when you adopt, or contact East Tennessee Spay and Neuter at 423-289-5548 or www.etnspay-neuter.org.
If you can't adopt right now, you can sponsor a pet by paying the spay/neuter cost for that animal.
This would make it easier to find a home for it, and help prevent more unwanted pets.
E. TN Spay & Neuter transports shelter and already adopted animals to regional low-cost spay-neuter clinics for owners who can't make the trip.
Please contact them for more info on low-cost spay-neuter surgeries: 423-289-5548 or www.etnspay-neuter.org.
Upcoming Events
Show your support by attending the the Shelter Building Committee meeting on May 25 at 5:15 pm at the Elizabethton Star. You can also help by donating to the Elizabethton-Carter County Animal Shelter Building Committee Fund, c/o Carter County Bank, P.O. Box 1990, Elizabethton, TN 37643. Check out the Committee's website: www.newshelterforcartercounty.com. You can also donate used cell phones at Carter County Bank, buy a Tshirt or memorial brick, or hold your own fundraiser to benefit the shelter and the new building.
The animals thank you!
