Marshfield Area Pet Shelter

Marshfield Area Pet Shelter More than 700 animals enter our facility every year. Help us help them. Please donate! The majority of animals entering our facility are strays.

Marshfield Area Pet Shelter, Inc is a private non-profit animal welfare organization with a seven member Board of Directors. We have four full-time employees who cover 7 day a week shifts from 7am to 8pm. Other shelters comparable to the size of our shelter generally have approximately 10-13 employees. But thanks to the dedication of 40+ volunteers, we are able to provide daily care to more than 7

00 animals every year. We have contracts with local municipalities to house stray dogs and cats while we attempt to locate their owners. The following municipalities pay us to provide this service: City of Marshfield, Village of Spencer, Townships of McMillan, Richfield, Lincoln and Rock. If an owner does not come forward to reclaim their pet, the animal is then spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and place up for adoption. Other animal intakes include pets taken into custody by law enforcement, stray dogs and cats from non-contracted areas, owner pet surrenders and pets transferred in from other organizations. Animal intakes other than our contracted areas are dependent on the amount of space we have available at our facility. We proudly follow the Shelter Medicine’s guidance for Capacity for Care. A waitlist is available for when space opens up. All animal shelters are overwhelmed and overcrowded. The number of pet surrender requests continues to increase and hundreds of strays are found every year. Pet overpopulation has increased significantly. The only solution to this dilemma is to facilitate more low cost spay and neuter options, implement TNR efforts and educate people on the importance of spaying and neutering! As Marshfield’s first animal welfare organization, we are transforming the way our community views animals and animal welfare. Our future goals include innovative education programs for the public and investments in outreach, advocacy and affordable spay/neuter options for the Marshfield area. State Kennel License #492209

Hi, my name is Kickstand, and I am one truly special boy! 🤩

I was originally found roaming on someone's property, but nobody came forward to claim me—which honestly blows my mind, because I am a SUPER affectionate guy! You might notice right away that I’m missing a front leg (I was already rocking the three-legged look when I was rescued), hence my awesome name, Kickstand! 😼

At around five years old, I’ve perfected the art of being the ultimate people-cat. I simply cannot get enough attention, chin scratches, and love. I am at my absolute happiest when someone is petting me and I have a cozy lap to claim as my personal throne. 💖

While I'm still figuring out exactly how I feel about other cats, I know for absolute certainty that YOU are my favorite. If you've been searching for a devoted, incredibly handsome, tripod dude to be your main squeeze and loyal sidekick, hit me up!

Don't let my missing leg fool you—I won't have any trouble walking right into your heart. Apply to visit me today! 😺💕 www.marshfieldpetshelter.org/adopt
