Local Animal Shelters are FULL; Seek Foster Homes for Homeless Animals


Hampton Roads’ animal shelters are full.  Norfolk Animal Care and Adoption Center, Peninsula Regional Animal Shelter, Portsmouth Humane Society, and Virginia Beach Animal Care and Adoption Center have all issued pleas for the community’s help.

More animals are being surrendered than our shelters can hold.  In order to help free up space, they are asking for foster homes for kittens, cats, puppies, dogs, and small animals like hamster and guinea pigs!

Can’t adopt or foster but still want to help?  Volunteer your time or share animals up for adoption on social media.
