Montgomery County Animal Services & Adoption Center
The official Facebook page for the Montgomery County Animal Services & Adoption Center located in Derwood, MD.
We serve and protect all animals and citizens in our community with dedication and compassion. We strengthen the human-animal bond through education, humane law enforcement, and by promoting responsible guardianship.
The Montgomery County Animal Services and Adoption Center (MCASAC), proudly operated by the Montgomery County Department of Police, Animal Services Division, provides high-standard sheltering and care to the homeless, abused, and neglected animals in Montgomery County and ensures the safety and welfare of the county’s citizens.
The Center’s doors are open to all animals in need from: dogs and cats to farm animals, wildlife, and exotics. Trained staff provide animals with daily care, mental and physical enrichment, health and wellness checks, and more. Through adoptions, spay and neuter assistance, vaccination clinics, education and outreach, the Center serves as a critical community resource to promote and advocate for responsible pet care. With community support and partnerships with other animal-welfare groups, our Foster, Rescue and Volunteer programs enhance and save the lives of even more homeless animals.
Animal Services Officers are on-call seven days a week to investigate citizen complaints and respond to animal emergencies 24 hours a day. These calls include animal-related matters such as: animal abuse and neglect; law enforcement; calls regarding stray, rabid, or aggressive animals; and sick or injured wildlife.
The Montgomery County Animal Services and Adoption Center is proud to serve as the region’s largest eco-friendly animal services and adoption center.

#GivingTuesday is here. This year, we’re asking our wonderful community, followers, and friends to consider giving to an organization that has given our animals so much.
All year-round, @fmcainfo helps us fund medical care for our most critical animals, provides Trap-Neuter-Release programs for feral cats, operates a robust foster care program, provides us with essential supplies such as toys, harnesses, enrichment supplies, and neo-natal care items, and so much more.
#FMCA is funded solely by community donations and operated by dedicated volunteers, which is why they need YOU to help them continue to make a difference in the lives of stray, neglected, abused, and ill animals. To help FMCA this #GivingTuesday2021, please click the link in our bio

Happy Tails Update!
“Hello! We adopted Marvin a 7 yr old orange Tabby. He is so wonderful! He has the nickname King Marvin. He spends his day in his favorite chair with his favorite blanket. If we move the blanket he follows it and sleeps wherever we put it. We put it on my daughters bed every night at bed time and he knows the bedtime routine now. He plays with my daughter before bed and before lunch. He eats dry food for breakfast and wet food for dinner. He loves his scratching post and in the morning he lays on my desk between my keyboard and monitor helping me work.😄😄😄
“He is so kind and mellow. Thank you for matching us with him.”

Everybody here at MCASAC wants to wish you all a happy and safe Thanksgiving! We're so thankful for our dedicated volunteers, hard working staff members, adorable animals, generous community, and all our fantastic adopters who have adopted with us!
As a reminder, we are CLOSED to the public today. For animal related emergencies, please call our Animal Services Officers at 301-279-8000.

With Thanksgiving only a day away, it can be easy to get swept away in all the fun and food of the holidays! To keep the Thanksgiving festivities fun for the whole family, make sure to have a refresher on some of the @ASPCA's Holiday Safety tips!

With Thanksgiving only 5 days away, you may be starting to think of all the things you're thankful for. Maybe it's family, warm meals, and a cozy home to share with loved ones. Unfortunately, these are comforts that shelter animals go without while they wait to be adopted.
This holiday season, ask yourself how you can give back and even give a loving rescue animal a home for the holidays. If you cannot adopt, consider joining our foster program, volunteering, or even just donating towels, toys, or supplies to our adoption center! To learn more about how you can be a hero for the holidays, visit the "Get Involved" page in the link in our bio!

We don't have enough good things to say about Lily. She is sweet, quiet, and gentle. Lily loves to receive pets and love from people. She may be slow to approach, as she can be a bit of a wallflower, but once she nudges your hand for affection, she turns into a purr machine.
Lily would love a gentle and quiet home or human to love her. She is a senior gal who’s adoption fee is waived. To learn more, just visit the How to Adopt link in our bio.

During the holiday season, we often reflect upon how thankful we are for our cozy homes, loving friends and family, and the celebrations we share. 💝 Unfortunately, these are comforts and joys that many shelter animals will be missing while they wait to be adopted.
Any and all of our animals would be thrilled to spend the holidays with YOU! Can you open your house to a homeless animal for the holiday season? 🏡🐾
If so, we would love to have you on our foster team! We have guinea pigs, bunnies, dogs, birds, farm animals, reptiles, cats, and so many more animals who would love to spend the holidays at your home before going to their forever families! Not only do you get a low-commitment friend for a bit, but you'll be making a shelter animal very happy during this season of giving.
When you foster with MCASAC, you don't spend a cent. We provide ALL supplies, food, and vet care.
Our foster application turn-around time is currently 1-2 weeks, so don't wait! Apply to foster TODAY! To learn more, please visit the link in our bio for more information.

ADOPTED TOGETHER!
✨Happy Tails Update!✨
"All is going really well! As we anticipated, they were a bit of unsure of things for a few days and stuck close together.
"They seem to be much more comfortable now, which is nice to see! When anyone in the family comes through the door, they perk up, run to the door, and then the tails start wagging!
"Thelma likes to hang out in the foyer and look out the front door and Louise likes to hang out in the family room and look out the patio door. They even hang out on different levels of the house so they no longer feel the need to stick close to one another.
"They love taking walks (although they are not thrilled with their gentle leaders) and chasing squirrels in the backyard. They also love chilling in their beds (and ours) and getting rewarded with a treat-filled Kong.
"They have brought us so much joy in such a short time! Thank you!"

Isn’t 9-year-old Olivia (A482617) just the cutest?!? She’s a precious older lady who just LOVES spending time with people, especially our volunteers, like the one who took this photo during a beautiful autumn walk!
Olivia is one of 24 AWESOME dogs who are hoping to find a home for the holidays! If you’re looking to add a furry family member to your home, please consider viewing all our adoptable dogs and scheduling an Adoption Appointment. All necessary links are in our bio!
