Morris

Adopt Morris!This week’s featured shelter pet is Morris, a handsome 10-year-old orange tabby available for adoption at the Smithtown Animal Shelter.

Morris was found as a stray in early January. .His friendliness and ease around people gave caretakers hope that someone would claim him, but sadly, no one came for him.

Morris is an outgoing fella who loves people, which is evident upon making his acquaintance. He will not hesitate to introduce himself, excited to make new friends, especially those fond of being on the receiving end of infinite affection, purring, and cuddling.

Morris is every cat lover’s dream; he allows those around him to enjoy his playfulness, sweet and loving nature. He is very good at letting you know if he needs quiet time when overstimulated. Morris is a perfect gentleman who will bring companionship, joy, and cherished moments to a lucky family’s heart and home.

On November 5, 2024, a male bully mix with brindle coloring was brought to the Smithtown Animal Shelter with extensive injuries, including what appeared to be chemical burns and infected wounds. Named “Meatloaf” by the shelter staff, the dog was found wandering on Croft Lane near Creek Road in Smithtown.

A Good Samaritan found the injured dog and dropped him off at the Smithtown Animal Shelter for care. Unfortunately Meatloaf injuries were too extreme so he did not survive. 

The Suffolk County SPCA is offering a $3,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the individual(s) responsible for this heinous act of animal cruelty.

SPCA detectives are actively investigating this case and urge anyone with information about Meatloaf’s injuries or the circumstances that led to his condition and ultimate death to come forward.

If you have any information, please contact the Suffolk County SPCA at 631-382-7722. Reports can be made anonymously.

The Suffolk County SPCA reminds the public that intentional harm to animals is against the law in New York. Together, we can ensure that justice is served and prevent further acts of cruelty against animals in our community.

Chief Gross emphasized that animal cruelty will not be tolerated in Suffolk County: “If you witness any act of animal cruelty or neglect, please report it immediately to the Suffolk County SPCA. Together, we can ensure justice for these innocent animals.”

A criminal charge is an accusation. A defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.

If you have any information, please contact the Suffolk County SPCA at 631-382-7722.

The Town of Smithtown Animal Shelter has announced the release of its first-ever 2025 Animal Shelter Calendar, showcasing irresistible cats and dogs currently in need of loving homes. This limited-edition calendar is not just a delightful addition to your desk or home but also a heartfelt reminder of the importance of pet adoption.

Each month highlights a shelter animal hoping to find a forever family. Many of the featured pets have been overlooked for adoption for years, making their spotlight in the calendar an opportunity to shine a light on their unique personalities and lovable qualities.

The production of the calendar was made possible through Rescue Rocks, with a suggested donation of $30 per calendar. All of the proceeds (100%) will directly benefit the shelter, funding critical emergency and veterinary care in the coming year.

“This calendar is the perfect New Year’s gift for animal lovers! Not only does it help raise funds for vital care, but it’s also a beautiful way to spread awareness. A coworker, friend, or family member might see a photo of their perfect four-legged match and give a deserving pet the home they’ve been waiting for. Some of these animals have spent years dreaming of their forever family. With this calendar, we hope to turn those dreams into reality,” said Councilwoman Lisa Inzerillo, Animal Shelter Liaison.

Featured Animals Include:

  •  Blaze (January): The shelter’s longest resident (over five years) is a loyal, affectionate chocolate-brown pup with a New Year’s wish to find his forever family.
  • Betty-Boop (April): A low-key, 12-year-old “couch hippo” who has spent five years at the shelter. This sweet pibble mix is the ultimate Netflix snuggle buddy.
  •  Mia (December): A goofy, fun-loving Mastiff/Labrador mix longing for a Christmas miracle after four years at the shelter.

    Additional months feature a mix of playful kittens, resilient seniors, and affectionate dogs, all waiting to meet their match.

    Calendars can be picked up during regular visiting hours at the Smithtown Animal Shelter or reserved by phone or email. Donations can be made by visiting the GoFundMe.com page created specifically for the Animal Shelter Calendar: https://gofund.me/69937de2

Butterball

ADOPT BUTTERBALL!

This week’s featured shelter pet is Butterball, a smorgasbord of purr-fection and available for adoption at the Smithtown Animal Shelter. This handsome, portly, domestic short-haired brown tabby, is a six year old boy who comes equipped with a banquet of love to give one lucky family. Butterball lived in a home until the owner moved, only to abandon him and his other feline friend companions behind. Despite his heartbreak and desertion, Butterball is ever so sweet, and in search of his forever home where he can bring endless joy and laughter to one lucky family!

While at first encounters, Butterball may appear to be on the shy side. However, with a little patience and gentle persuasion to earn his trust, will culminate into a jumbo-sized dose of unconditional love and loyalty. If his rotund personality is the total package for you, then the sweet sound of Butterball’s endearing purr, and endless devotion is the icing on the cake. It is nearly impossible to resist Butterball’s charming nature once he trusts you. Simply put, this is one of the most lovable and huggable best buds you will ever meet!

Butterball would thrive in a serene home with older children, mellow dogs, and cats. While his size and stature make him unique and adorable, he will need a family that will support him in sticking to a healthy diet to help him meet his weight loss goals for the new year.
