Animal Services

Most of the animals that come into our shelter arrive with nothing, except themselves.  The Animal Shelter does what it can to make the animals comfortable so that they are well taken care of, until their owners claim them or  the animals are put up for adoption.

To directly help the animals by making them a bit more comfortable in the best possible environment, your help and donations would be very useful.

Volunteer Opportunities

The Animal Shelter sees thousands of animals per year and we are always looking for help in finding them good adoptive homes.  Volunteers are an essential part of the daily activities in our shelter to assist with socializing, walking, cleaning, and playing with the animals.  Citizens must be age 18 or older in order to volunteer at our shelter.

Our Wish List

The following donations would be very useful in making an animal's stay at the shelter a bit more comfortable:

  • Rolls of paper towels
  • Antibacterial hand soap
  • Large, black, heavy-duty trash bags
  • Dog and cat food
  • Dog and cat collars and leashes
  • Dog and cat toys (dishwasher safe)
  • Cat litter (large granules only, please)
  • Small and medium folding wire cages for off-site adoption events

For more information about volunteer and donation opportunities, contact the Animal Shelter at aco@ci.saginaw.tx.us or call 817-230-0460 or 817-230-0461.
