Join us for BARCS After Dark, a special 10-hour adoption marathon and pajama party at our shelter! On Saturday, October 5th, from 10:00AM to 8:00PM, we're keeping our doors open late to help as many animals as possible find the loving homes they deserve.

Finding homes for our animals is about more than just giving them a place to stay—it’s about offering them warmth, comfort and a sense of belonging. Every pet that leaves our shelter makes room for another in need, and every adoption brings an animal closer to the life they’ve been waiting for. By adopting, you're saving a life and gaining a loyal companion to share your home—and your blankets—with.

During BARCS After Dark, all adoption fees will be waived for every animal. This is the perfect opportunity to find your new snuggle buddy—someone to keep you company, whether it’s a cozy night on the couch or sharing your bed for a good night’s sleep. And since it’s a pajama party, we invite you to come dressed in your comfiest PJs and enjoy sleepover-themed surprises throughout the day and night.

Help us break adoption records and send our pets home to the warm, loving environments they deserve. Your new cuddle buddy is waiting!
