Annual Summer Adopt-A-Thon

Did someone say “clear the shelter?”  Well that is exactly what we are striving to do on July 15th- with your help of course!  We are working to place our many deserving pets into loving homes at our Annual Summer Adopt-A-Thon.  Talbot Humane has waived ALL adoption fees that day for pets in our care.  Regional rescues and humane societies have been invited to show pets for adoption as well! 
The day will include:
  • food for sale
  • raffles
  • door prizes
  • coupons to Head to Tail Thrift and Vintage for every visitor and more!
We encourage potential adopters to come prepared so we may process your applications in a timely manner.  We will do our best to fulfill same day adoptions, but cannot promise this. You can help by being prepared:
  • bring your paperwork
    • that is get copies of your current pets’ vaccine history
    • if you rent, a copy of your lease stating you can have pets
    • be sure to have your photo ID with you

 

We hope you choose to spend the day with Talbot Humane and help us CLEAR THE SHELTER on July 15th!

Homes for the Holidays 2016

red-nosed-reindoodle

 

Imagine waking on January 1, 2017 and the cages and kennels of Talbot Humane being almost bare… Would that not be the MOST amazing way to begin the New Year? Well, our staff and volunteers are going to do our best to make this a reality for the more than 170 pets in our care at this time!  

Warm bed. Full belly. Love. Care. They don’t ask for much from us and what they give us in return is immeasurable. 

Here’s the deal for the rest of 2016:

  • Felines are FEE FREE
  • Dogs of all ages adoption fee 1/2 off
  • All small mammals and exotics adoption fee 1/2 off
  • Visit our pets at Talbot Humane, PetSmart of Easton, or PetValu of Easton
  • Check our social media pages, Facebook and Twitter for the Pet of the Day all month long to see and learn more about each animal.

When we speak to our staff and volunteers, some of our fondest holiday memories included adding a new friend to the family during the holidays. Our lives are that much richer when we share our hearts with those who love so unconditionally.  

We welcome you to visit us Monday-Saturday through the holiday season, if nothing else allow us the opportunity to thank you for your ongoing support for our mission and values at Talbot Humane.  We appreciate all you do, and, we know without you we would nothing.
