Hi! My name is Chester and Im looking for my forever home! Im about 2 years old and I just had all my medical done yesterday, so now I can find my forever people! I don’t have a lot of demands, just that this home has people who don’t mind a lap cat. I really love attention! I don’t seem to mind other cats either! If you are interested in meeting me, please fill out the online application at https://form.jotform.com/253225649824059 and if you have any more questions you can call Animal Control at 978-249-2494!

We are posting another plea for our bonded pair, Harley and Quinn. We have had these two since OCTOBER with very little interest. We get it, they are a bonded pair, older dogs, black dogs, mixed breed dogs. We’ve had people set up times to come meet them, only to never show or call. We have posted them far and wide, but still, no applications. It isn’t fair for these two great dogs to have to continue waiting for a home. If we can’t find a home that will take both soon, we won’t have a choice but to separate them and try to adopt them out separately. We truly don’t want to do this. These two were dumped together and love each other, but it isn’t fair for them to live their entire lives in a shelter waiting. These two don’t seem to mind other dogs or cats, but please no small children as we have no background history on them. If you are interested in meeting this duo, please give us a call at 978-249-2494!

Our ACOs have been very lucky to have worked alongside Alan many times. No matter the time of day or night, he would always answer our calls and assist us in every way he possibly could. Enjoy your very well deserved retirement!
