Marshmallow Foundation

Marshmallow Animal Shelter is a “low kill” shelter. This is very important to all of us and we believe in it with all of our hearts. The animals that are brought to us as “strays” are held for five (5) business days. After that hold period is up, we have the right to have that animal euthanized. We wanted to give animals a second chance at finding new homes so we chose to have a policy where we only euthanize if there are extenuating circumstances. We do our very best to not give up on any animal brought to our doorstep! Because we are committed to caring for these animals until we can find them appropriate homes, many are with us for a very lengthy period. On average, we have over 40 cats and 15 dogs to care for while they wait to find new homes and families. We do not give them time limits. But to do this requires support from our public. In addition to finding homes for these pets, Marshmallow Animal Shelter also works closely with local and regional service dog training programs and police departments. We are proud to have had several shelter dogs go on to help people or places in need! The staff and volunteers of Marshmallow Animal Shelter work hard every single day providing for the animals that have no other place to go. They do this because it is in their heart and it feeds their soul. Please help them continue to care for these pets in need and provide a safe haven for them until they find new families and homes. Please consider making a donation to ensure that these animals have someplace to go when they need it most. Thank you!

Meet Melba & Nellie (Bonded pair)

Melba and Nellie – Sibling Sweeties Ready to Blossom Together! Meet Melba and Nellie, a pair of bonded siblings searching for a forever home where they can stay by each other’s side. These two may start off shy in new surroundings, but with a little time and love, they’re ready to show you just how special they can be! Melba, the brother, has already turned into a total cuddle bug after some time at the shelter. He’s a lap-cat extraordinaire, always on the lookout for a cozy spot to snuggle up and soak in the affection. Don’t even think about skipping his belly rubs—he’ll insist on them before letting anyone move on with their day! His sweet, affectionate nature is a glimpse of the love he’s ready to share. Nellie, his sister, is a bit more reserved and still finding her confidence. She’s shy, but she’s making progress—especially when food’s involved! Her little meows for a meal are the first signs of her growing trust, and a patient home will help her continue to open up. With Melba’s support and your kindness, she’s sure to thrive. Together, Melba and Nellie are a perfect pair, leaning on each other as they grow. A calm, loving home will be the key to boosting their social skills and confidence, letting Melba’s cuddly side shine and giving Nellie the space to come into her own. If you’re ready to offer this duo the time and tenderness they need, they’ll reward you with endless love and purrs. Adopt Melba and Nellie today and watch them bloom! Visitors to the shelter are by appointment only and after a form has been submitted online:  https://www.marshmallowfoundation.org/forms/  

Adoption Process
Marshmallow Animal Shelter wants to make certain that every animal adopted goes to a loving home where it will be well cared. Because of this, our application asks a number of detailed questions, which are necessary for our screening process. Our application will ask you to what lengths you are willing to go, in order to accommodate the animal's needs and training. You must be able to show commitment of time, finances, energy and compassion to the animal. Once your application is approved, we require that you sign a contract guaranteeing non-transferal/sale of animal, its proper care, and spay/neuter surgery if not already done.
