We had a lot to catch up on today at WAIF’s Coupeville shelter! We met one newly available dog and two new cats. In spite of the dire forecasts of bad weather, the rain held off so we saw several dogs outside having fun in the play yard and sensory garden. In addition, we have an important update on special needs kitties, Triscuit and Trail Mix. You may remember that these are our two young cats with “wobbly cat syndrome”. Please give us a call at (360) 678-8901 if you have questions about any of the animals in our care. Learn more on our website at waifanimals.org. ... See MoreSee Less

“Pawsitive” Alternatives for Shelter Surrenders
WAIF now offers two resources for pet owners who find themselves in need of rehoming their pets on their own, outside a shelter environment. In addition to our “Home to Home” platform we’ve had in place for almost two years, we now offer “Rehome by Adopt-a-Pet”. We recognize that it can be heartbreaking to relinquish a pet. WAIF may have resources that will keep you and your pet together. However, if that is not an option, these resources may be able to help.  Please visit our waifanimals.org/community-pets for more information.
