Program areas at Pets Come First
Pets Come First is a non-euthanasia animal shelter committed to caring for animals of central Pennsylvania, and supporting the local community. Pets Come First works closely with other local rescues, clinics, and pet food pantries to support community cat "trap and release" programs along with low cost spay and neuter programs to combat the root cause of pet overpopulation.we are dedicated to ensuring responsible shelter management within our community, working together to eliminate the critical overpopulation of homeless, stray and abused animals. Educating our community on the importance of spaying and neutering all animals will decrease the number of surrendered and unwanted animals to area shelters and rescue groups. We work in partnership with other rescues, local & state police, humane officers, and dog law enforcement officers to provide monetary and voluntary resources to support and sponsor local animal programs within our community. We will offer emergency placement, food, and medical services for the Pets of approved and responsible low-income families and senior citizens.
