Celebrating another no-kill year!

Jan 31, 2022
1 min read

Thanks to our amazing community of support, 2021 was another great year for pets in Mid-Michigan!

We saw an increase in intakes, comparable to pre-COVID numbers, and adoptions stayed steady throughout the year! We worked with transfer partners to send 50 animals to shelters with extra space available, and we transferred in 15 dogs from shelters that were at capacity. Thanks to our wonderful Facebook followers who share our lost pet posts, we were able to reunite 176 animals with their families!

Here's a few highlights from 2021:

  • Our canine department celebrated their best lifesaving year ever, with a 99% canine save rate!

  • We maintained no-kill status with a 96% overall save rate!

  • Our feline department decreased the average length of stay by 50% since implementing managed admission for felines in 2019. That means cats are moving through the shelter and into forever homes at a much better pace!

  • The Health Clinic spayed/neutered 2,021 animals – our surgery goal this year is 2,022! We are still working hard to combat feline overpopulation and 1,601 felines were fixed last year!

  • Over 300 pets received free vaccines and microchips at our walk-in clinics!

Thank you for making this possible! Because of you, hundreds of animals received the safe shelter, medical care, and second chances they deserved.

We have some wonderful plans in the works for this year, including a major improvement for our canine residents! Stay tuned!

Together, we can make 2022 our best year yet!

That 99% canine save rate is seriously impressive, and cutting feline length of stay by 50% since 2019 shows the managed admission change really paid off. The 176 reunions got me too—those lost pet shares clearly do work. Speaking of numbers and daily habits, this reminds me of krillion, a little daily trivia thing where rare answers score more and a perfect 700 sinks you 7,000 metres—oddly similar to chasing that 2,022 surgery goal. Congrats on the no-kill year, and good luck with whatever the canine improvement project turns out to be!

Before making changes to your wireless network, confirm that you have reached the correct router interface. The entry 192 .168.1.1 may fail if formatted incorrectly, so check the gateway and use the manufacturer’s recommended login procedure.
