Talbot Humane is so proud to announce we have joined forces with fellow Maryland  humane and animal control facilities to place 2,000 cats and kittens in new homes during the month of July!  Fees will be waived at all of these facilities and each one will have other special incentives. 

For the month of July, Talbot Humane FELINE adopters will receive:

• No adoption fee

• Free post adoption wellness exams from participating veterinarians:  All Pets Veterinary Hospital, Easton Veterinary Clinic, Community Animal Hospital, Mid-Atlantic Cat Hospital, Midshore Veterinary Service, Spay Now, Inc., Pet Health Clinic.

• Starter bag of food

• Cat goodie bag
  

Our open admission shelter could not do all we do without the support of adopters, donors, volunteers and well wishers.  If you are considering adoption of a new cat or kitten, July is the right time to fall in love! We can’t wait to break this number and place these needy pets in loving homes, with your help!

John Rimel and Tom Proutt
Saturday, March 10, 2018
Doors: 7:30 p.m.; Show: 8 p.m.
Stoltz Listening Room $25

Purchase tickets: https://tickets.avalontheatre.com/eventperformances.asp?evt=933

Attend a performance of John Rimel and Tom Proutt and it will be the songs that you carry away as the most memorable part of the experience. And best of all, you help the animals in need! John and Tom are donating a portion of their earnings and 1/2 the sale of their CD’s to Talbot Humane! A great evening out for you and support Talbot Humane too!

Each of their works reflects a lifelong devotion to and expertise in the art and craft of songwriting. Thought-provoking lyrics take the listener on an exhilarating roller coaster ride of wide-ranging emotions. Their eclectic musical style spans the spectrum, encompassing folk, rock, country, bluegrass, Americana, blues, Cajun, and gospel.

John and Tom’s songs feature a winning mix of stellar lyrics and exciting diverse music. The paired-down presentation of piano and guitar afford the listener an intimate direct experience and, best of all, a chance to hear the songs as they were written.

Our awesome friends at TriCycle and Run are once again doing their Frosty Paws 5K to support the animals of our community!  Saturday January 20th their free 5K will be held in St. Michaels. Thanks to the sponsorship of Carpenter Street Saloon this will be a TIMED RUN!  YAY!  Entry fee? Supplies for the shelter!  You can check out our wishlist here: TALBOT HUMANE WISH LIST

It is encouraged everyone you know to register online here: https://runsignup.com/Race/MD/SaintMichaels/FrostyPawsFREE5KFunRun  

As for race day, please plan to arrive at the shop (TriCycle and Run – 929 S. Talbot St. – St. Michaels – MD – 21663) no later than 8:30am to pick up your bib and complete registration. Please plan to park at St. Michaels Elementary School (on Seymour Ave.), then make the short walk down to the shop. There will be a pre-race meeting in the front parking lot at 8:45am. We will then walk as a group to the start line across the street at 9:00am.

As usual, this event is designed to be FUN!! As such, this is a prediction race….meaning that just because you cross the finish line first, doesn’t necessarily mean that you are the race winner. You will need to guess your finish time by the closest margin to be declared a race winner!!

“The Dog” is at it again! The Kool Kats at Hair O’ The Dog Wine & Spirits annual Chili Cook-Off is once again, going to the dogs (and cats too!) Friday February 2nd from 5-7PM you will have the chance to taste not 3 but 6 delish chili dishes (everything from meat-lovers to vegan are represented!) paired with wine or beer. Our Annual Battle for the Chili Bowl is a good time for everyone- especially the animals in need! Each year it is Talbot Humane staff & volunteers verses “The Dog” staff in an effort to raise funds for the animals! You vote with your dollars to see which team wins! The generous folks at HOTD are also donating a 10% of the sale of featured wine and beer to Talbot Humane during this event. These folks really are AMAZING friends to the animals!

 This year the funds will go toward our program which helps us keep loved pets in their homes. Your support means pets stay where they are most loved, and out of hte shelters of our area! 

Not into chili so much? Well, you will still want to stop by and meet our pets for adoption, enter your name in a raffle drawing and just join in the fun! Questions? Contact us today! We just KNOW it’s gonna be fun for everyone, and the big winners- the animals thanks to the generosity of Hair O’ the Dog and YOU!
