COVID-19

Animal Rescue During a Global Pandemic

On March 14th, 2020 the Animal Adoption Center (AAC) closed its doors to the public due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The AAC staff did not know what was to come and what animal rescue would look like moving forward. Operations were shifted, a new normal was adopted and our community showed up to help. Thank you to our wonderful supporters that stand by the AAC’s side no matter what. You are driving our mission.

BIG BLUE

AAC Welcomes New Rescue Van

May 28th, 2020 marked a new chapter in the story of the Animal Adoption Center (AAC). The AAC welcomed a new transport van to their rescue fleet complete with 19 temperature controlled kennels. This 4WD Ford Transit van will allow the AAC to further its reach, intake more animals at once and save more lives. Thank you to the wonderful, local family who generously gifted the AAC the van and the supporters who made the outfitting possible!

SPAY/NEUTER WYOMING

Learn more about AAC‘s Spay/Neuter Wyoming’s Program

Millions of adoptable dogs and cats are euthanized each year in America due to overcrowding in animal shelters. At the AAC, we are committed to solving the problem of pet overpopulation. We believe that spaying and neutering is the most effective way to exponentially reduce the number of homeless pets. The goal of the AAC Spay/Neuter Wyoming Program is to make sterilization services available to those who might not otherwise be able to afford them.
