The Prince Georges County Shelter (MD) has been hit hard by the current economic crisis. We continue to struggle with the management of large quantities of animals surrendered by citizens, unclaimed stray animals and an almost 50% decrease in adoptions.
We need immediate and ongoing help, please be aware that approximately 30 new animals enter our shelter DAILY! We have 116 holding cages for dogs and 25 cat holding cages. This weekend alone 29 cats entered the shelter. As hard as we try we cannot house all the animals that enter the facility for any extended period of time. Please be aware that even a one days' delay in picking up a rescued animal can cost another animal its life.
We implore you to continue to take animals from our facility but please do so as quickly as possible. Contact us by e-mail jeree.hamlet@ gmail.com (@gmail.com) in addition to amhoward@pg. co.md.gov (@pg.co.md.gov) . In addition, please disseminate our information to any rescue organizations that may be able to help us.
