An animal shelter is a facility that houses and cares for stray, lost, abandoned, or surrendered animals, primarily dogs and cats. These shelters aim to provide a safe environment for animals until they are reclaimed by their owners, adopted into new homes, or transferred to rescue organizations.

Types of Animal Shelters

  1. Municipal Shelters – Run by local governments, often funded by taxpayer money. They may be open-admission (taking in all animals) or limited-admission.

  2. Private Shelters – Operated by non-profits or charities, relying on donations and volunteers. They may have stricter intake policies.

  3. No-Kill Shelters – These only euthanize animals in cases of severe illness or aggression. They often have waiting lists due to limited space.

  4. Rescue Organizations – Focus on specific breeds or types of animals, often using foster homes instead of physical shelters.
