Marion County Animal Shelter seeks help amid overcrowding crisis

Marion County’s Animal Shelter is currently facing overcrowding, putting the health and well-being of animals at risk. The shelter urges the community to help by either adopting or fostering pets. Even fostering a pet for just one week can ease the shelter’s burden and help find permanent homes for the animals.
