The Gloucester County Animal Shelter is temporarily stopping in-person visits
(Clayton, NJ)—The Gloucester County Animal Shelter (GCAS) will halt in-person walk-ins starting Wednesday, March 18 in the interest of public health.
Under the guidance of The Gloucester County Board of Chosen Freeholders, Health Department, Office of Emergency Response and the State of New Jersey, GCAS will remain closed to the public until further notice.
“Our staff at the Animal Shelter is committed to our animals and we’re committed to their safety,” Freeholder Director Robert M. Damminger said. “All of our animals will continue to be cared for during this time and receive the same, great care during this time.”
When the GCAS doors open again, the shelter will offer discounted adoption fees for animals.
“During this time, it’s important we look out for public health and encourage our residents to self-distance,” Freeholder Deputy Director Frank J. DiMarco said. “Once we feel confident that our residents are safe and healthy, we will open our doors with discounted adoption fees and get some of our furry friends to their forever home.”
