Meet Maggie, an adorable young pup with a gentle heart who’s still learning that the world isn’t such a scary place. This sweet girl missed out on early socialization, so many everyday things—like new people, sounds, and environments—can feel overwhelming to her. Maggie is looking for someone patient and understanding, who will move at her pace and help her build confidence one small step at a time.

Maggie would really benefit from a calm, confident dog sibling to show her the ropes and help her learn that new experiences can be fun. With time, stability, and lots of kindness, this nervous little girl has the potential to blossom into a loyal and loving companion. She just needs the right person (and dog friend!) to help her feel safe and supported as she discovers the good life.

Stop by Northeast Animal Shelter to meet Maggie. We have open adoption hours 7 days a week from 11:30am-5pm - no appointment needed to speak to a staff person regarding available pets.

Through no fault of her own, Kyra is here at the shelter looking for a new family. This lovely girl is house trained and has lived well with kids in the past. Sweet Kyra hopes you love going on long sniffy walks just as much as she does. They are so much fun! Other than that, Kyras favorite things to do are play with her dog friends or snooze in the sun. We think that Kyra could possibly live with another dog or cat. This poor baby has been through several big transitions lately and is finding the shelter to be rather overwhelming. Right now, Kyra is worried about meeting new people. She is hoping her new adopters will keep things small and safe as she settles in. Would you like to meet this very sweet girl? She will be waiting for you!

If you think Kyra could be a good match for your home and would like to learn more, stop by our Nevins Farm Adoption Center in Methuen. We have open adoption hours Tuesday – Sunday from 12:00 pm – 4:30 pm with no appointment or application needed.

Please note, in an effort to keep the stress levels reduced for the dogs in our care, our dog kennel areas will not be open to walk through. Interested adopters will work with a matchmaker on staff to determine which dog(s) they are interested in and if we can identify a match, potential adopters will be able to meet those dogs outside of the kennel. Cat and small animal areas will remain open to walk through.

Doves can be tamed but tend to be more “hands off” birds. They tend to vocalize throughout the day with a “coo”, dissimilar to the screeching or whistling of many other birds. Doves can be found around the world, and can live up to 10 years with proper nutrition and care. We recommend that doves live in pairs or groups whenever possible.

We recommend a cage that is at least 32”x23” (Width x depth) with a maximum of ?-¾” bar spacing. Cages should include lots of flat surfaces to perch on, trays for food/water and lots of toys for enrichment. Unlike many other species of birds, doves are unable to climb up cage bars, and tend to move back and forth making a wider cage more appealing to them. Doves should be provided with regular opportunities for bathing, and unlike parrots require grit as part of their regular diet to aid in digestion.

The needs of each dove are unique and if you have questions about the right type of enclosure for the dove you are interested in, please visit us and talk with our volunteers/staff! We are happy to provide guidance and advice.

* If you think you are a good fit and would like to learn more, or if you just want to browse in person feel free to stop by during our open hours.

* If you are not ready to adopt, but are in a position to donate, please visit www.mspca.org/nevinsgift .

Peanut is part of a group that came to us from an overcrowding situation, and as such we don’t have a ton of information of what she is like in a home. Peanut lived with many rabbits before and may do well with a well matched female friend or she can live alone. She would likely do best with a rabbit experienced adopter that can plan to give her plenty of time to slowly adjust to the home, and all the people in it.

We recommend providing a safe indoor enclosure that allows a rabbit to stretch their legs and move around. The needs of each rabbit are unique and if you have questions about the right type of enclosure for the rabbit you are interested in, please let us know in your inquiry! We are happy to provide guidance and advice

Anna and Tess are a bonded pair! Anna is a cute, sweet young guinea pig who loves her sister!

Guinea pigs can make wonderful pets! They are very social creatures which means that they generally need at least one companion! Of course guinea pigs should only be kept with other piggies of the same sex. A pair of guinea pigs needs at minimum 10.5 sq. feet of cage space, or roughly 30″ x 50″ with a solid bottom, but more room is always encouraged! Guinea pigs can be quite noisy which can be lovely as long as you are expecting it!

Budgerigars, the most common parakeet we see, are native to Australia where they live in massive flocks in the grasslands. Parakeets tend to be docile, gentle, can be easy to tame and can even talk! Despite their small size, these birds can have large vocabularies and can make a wonderful training companion. We recommend that parakeets live in pairs or groups whenever possible. Parakeets can live up to 7-15 years with proper nutrition and care, and can be a loyal companion.

We recommend a cage that is at least 27”x24” (Width x depth) with a maximum of ½” bar spacing. Cages should include lots of perches, trays for food/water and lots of toys for enrichment. Nests can be provided but should be removed if any females begin to lay eggs. We do not recommend a seed only diet as it can lead to malnutrition and other potential issues, please consult your vet for specific diet recommendations.

The needs of each parakeet are unique and if you have questions about the right type of enclosure for the parakeet you are interested in, please visit us and talk with our volunteers/staff! We are happy to provide guidance and advice.

Meet Turkey! Turkey came to us as an older stray kitten who is not very interested in being around people. Instead Turkey is looking to be placed as a barn cat to help control rodent population and provide a level of indepenence and adventure that best fits Turkey’s socialability. Due to a lack of history on Turkey we do not know how she would do around dogs, but has done well with some other barn cats here in the shelter. She can do okay around kids that will respect her space, but presently does not want to be pet or picked up.

If you think Turkey could be a good match for your home and would like to learn more, stop by our Nevins Farm Adoption Center in Methuen. We have open adoption hours Tuesday – Sunday from 12:00 pm – 4:30 pm with no appointment or application needed.
