Looking for homes

The Everett Animal Shelter hosts thousands of stray and unwanted animals every year. Some are adopted right away, but some sit in the shelter for weeks at a time, waiting for a home.

All pets are vaccinated, spayed or neutered, and given a identifying microchip before they are adopted. Take a look at some of the dogs, cats and other critters available for adoption at the shelter now.

The shelter is at 333 Smith Island Road, Everett. It’s open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more information, call 425-257-6000.
