Monroe County Animal Shelter-Eastbourne Animal Center

Welcome to the Monroe County Animal Shelter-Eastbourne Animal Center, a dedicated facility under the auspices of the Monroe County Friends of Animals (MCFA). Our mission is to provide for and continuously enhance the health, happiness, and fortunes of homeless and abandoned cats and dogs in Monroe County. Our newly constructed center, which opened its doors in August 2024, is a testament to the generosity of our supporters. Designed to replace the former county shelter, it allows us to provide better care and facilities for our animals. At Eastbourne Animal Center, we believe in the power of community involvement. Our team consists of a committed Executive Director, a skilled Animal Care Manager, and many passionate Animal Care Specialists and administrative staff, all supported by a network of devoted volunteers. Together, we strive to find loving homes for all the pets in our care. We invite potential adopters to explore our available pets and consider giving a forever home to a furry friend. During special events, such as the Bissell Pet Foundation's "Empty The Shelters" adoption event from October 1 to October 15, we offer reduced adoption fees to encourage even more adoptions. In addition to our adoption services, we provide various programs, including a food pantry for pets, support for military families through our 'Pets for Patriots' initiative, rescue efforts, and spay-neuter programs. We are dedicated to making a positive impact on our community and the lives of our animals. Join us in our journey to save animals and find them the loving homes they deserve. Whether you want to adopt, volunteer, foster, or donate, there are countless ways you can help support our mission!
