Alpine Humane Society Pet of the Week is Joplin, a purrfectly lovely boy with medium grey fur and stunning green eyes. Come and visit this handsome feline. He would love to be part of your family.

If you or someone you know unexpectedly runs a bit short of cash for pet food, Alpine Humane Society can help. Our pet pantry located in the AHS Thrift Store has both wet and dry food for cats and dogs. There is no sign-up process. Just give your name, and tell us what you need.

Adoptions are handled by Alpine Animal Services at the city shelter, 10 a.m.-1 p.m., and 2-6 p.m. Monday through Friday at 2900 East Old Marathon Highway.

The Alpine Humane Society Thrift Store is located at 706 North Fifth Street in Alpine. For information about adoptions or other services, call the shelter at 432-837-9030. To view adoptable pets, visit alpinehumanesociety.org.
