Parma Animal Shelter Update
We would like to thank everyone who has adopted or donated to us. We are ever hopeful to have some exciting fundraising events this year. Parma Animal Shelter is still closed to the public, HOWEVER, WE ARE STILL SCHEDULING ADOPTIONS BY APPOINTMENT! We are following CDC/State of Ohio COVID-19 protocols and social distancing guidelines.
Visitors and volunteers are required to wear face coverings (face mask, face shield). Our volunteers are working hard to accommodate those seeking an appointment to adopt. Thanks for your continued patience.

FOSTER
During this time we are seeking people who may be able to provide their home to foster a pet for 4 to 6 weeks if the need arises. If you feel this is something you could commit to, and could keep the foster separate from your household resident animals, please contact dogadoptions@parmashelter.org or catfosters@parmashelter.org. We would provide the foster the necessary food and basic supplies needed.

If you would like to assist us at this time, please donate items that you can find on our Amazon wish list, Shelter beds or drop off in-kind donations during our open hours. We will have a box inside our front door to place the donations. For any monetary donations feel free to mail or send them online.

Tango is a beautiful ,gray female cat that can be a little shy until she gets to know you. She’s pretty friendly and loves people and will rub up against the volunteers when she’s out walking around. Tango also loves head scratches. She’s a bit of a spitfire and has a very independent personality. She loves chasing the laser around the main floor and playing with string toys! Tango also likes looking out the window to see what’s going on outside. Tango’s New Years resolution is to find her new furever home! Won’t you help this kitty fulfill her wish and fill out an application and make an appointment to see her? She doesn’t seem to like other cats but might be okay with a quiet dog and older children.
