We are ecstatic to report that hound dog Teddy's adoption has been finalized. Here's to years of fun together.

Black cat Mia has been adopted, and lop-eared bunny Evie Mc Chi Chi has been adopted as well. Best of luck in your new homes.

Our pet of the week is Jasmine, a stunning, long-haired, gray/dilute calico cat with green eyes. Her age is a young 13 and she is sweet and affectionate. Jasmine does consider herself to be the queen so she would be happiest as an only cat.

Also available are brothers Peter and Teddy, 10-month-old, black male rabbits. They have been hand-raised, and are litter box trained. Both are very friendly, and love to be held and cuddled. And they’re happy living indoors or out.

Did you know that vacationers and locals can borrow or buy a cage or carrier. At the request of MV DART we keep approximately 50 cages/carriers in surplus for emergencies.

If anyone needs dog food, we have plenty and are happy to share. Stop in during regular shelter hours. Crates too are available for free. 

The Animal Shelter of Martha’s Vineyard is here for our community. We’re always available and our door is always open should your adoption not be a perfect fit. Also, if anyone is in need of cat food, dog food, or a crate, we have plenty and are happy to share. The Island Food Pantry also has pet food for those in need.
