Friends of Napa County Animal Shelter

Friday, April 30th is National Adopt a Shelter Pet Day. In order for the Napa County Animal Shelter to help with adoptions, they need our help! Not only do our donations go towards adoptions, but they also go towards the health and well-being of all animals that come through the shelter. Please consider donating and help save a shelter animal's life!

Today is National Sense of Smell Day. While a very important sense for wine tasting in the valley, sense of smell is incredibly important in the animal world too! Check out this article with the top 5 sniffers of the animal kingdom! #adoptdontshop #friendsofnapacountyanimals #napacountynanimalshelter #napavalley #napacounty #americancanyon #napa #yountville #sthelena #calistoga https://www.popsci.com/sc/article/2013-05/five-feats-smell/

SPECIAL POST UPDATE: Laurel#38200 Kitty had his first recheck at #CaliforniaPetHospital and continues to heal from his pelvic fractures. Based on the orthopedic consult, hip surgery is very painful (and costs anywhere from $7,000-$10,000) and not without its complications. Since Laurel continues to heal with cage rest and his pain is managed, the less invasive method would be the best route for him since he already can get up and walk a little on his own. The good news is... that the majority of pelvic fractures in cats can heal on their own with strict cage rest and pain management. Laurel has not passed a bowel movement yet so we are introducing Lactulose to his regimen to help with that. We can tell he is feeling better because he is displaying more cattitude! He will need cage rest for the next 8-10 weeks and will have weekly to biweekly rechecks. We appreciate everyone's concern and support for Laurel. If you wish to make a donation to assist us in his care, donations can be made at this link http://www.friendsofnapaanimals.org/donate/.

There was so much GOAT talk this weekend that we thought we'd share some fun facts about Goats! The shelter occasionally gets them in and they are so much fun! #adoptdontshop #GOAT #napavalley #napacountyanimalshelter #americancanyon #napa #Yountville #sthelena #calistoga #SuperBowlLV https://spca.bc.ca/news/fun-facts-about-goats/

Things I learned from my dog = sharing is caring.

A curious canine with a sweet tooth can be the scariest part of the holiday.

I swear my cat can see ghosts...what about your pets?

Can we get two paws up for our Canine First Responders!
