Everybody Cheer!

We had a VERY EXCITING adoption today. Raisin was adopted into her very own home after being with us 756 days.

My Grandma always said "There's a lid for every pot".

We love possums too!

Good afternoon, Topeka!

As many of you know, summer is one of our busiest seasons and the ticks/fleas are at an all time high this year. Along with practicing safety and making sure all animals have protection, we wanted to point out our little helper as well.

Today, we wanted to give a shoutout to one of Topeka’s most underappreciated pest control professionals, the mighty opossum!

Although they may have a face only a mother could love, they provide tremendous benefits to our community and play an important role in maintaining a healthy ecosystem.

These nighttime visitors help control insects and other pests while cleaning up carrion and other organic matter. They are generally non-aggressive, prefer to avoid conflict, and simply go about their business helping nature do what it does best.

So if you spot an opossum wandering through your yard, consider letting it enjoy the buffet. Chances are you’ll benefit from having this helpful neighbor around.

Remember: if you see an opossum, the best thing you can do is leave it alone and let it be wild. If any wildlife is injured during our hours, please call 785-368-9203
