These cat pics were taken yesterday by a volunteer who helps get shelter animals taken for this page.

We try to post incoming stray animals and surrendered animals as quickly as possible to help the animal get claimed by its family or adopted into a new home.

If you recognize your pet, call the shelter at 505-891-5075 or visit the shelter. Kennel hours are 10am-5pm seven days a week except city holidays. Office hours are 8am-430pm same days.

These were taken on Saturday, Aug 22, 2026. I was out of country for 10 days and still all mixed up with my jet lag. Not sure if these dogs are still at the shelter. I will post new pics taken yesterday afternoon shortly.
