Department Highlight: Vet Clinic

Jan 26, 2018 | , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

We like to highlight departments in our shelter, as there are so many people that are working “behind the scenes” to make Wayside Waifs what it is today. Previously, we showcased our Admissions Department, and this time, we would like to showcase our Vet Clinic. They are certainly the backbone of our organization, as they oversee the care of each individual animal. We wouldn’t have the reputation we have if it wasn’t for them! *Warning: You may see some pictures of animals in surgery, but we promise nothing is being shown other than the animal. Just a warning before anyone scrolls down and is faint-hearted.*

Fun Winter Activities

Anyone else excited about the above freezing temperatures? We all know winters in Missouri and Kansas can be brutal if they want to be, but what do we do about our furry friends? They still need regular exercise and mental stimulation, even with frigid temperatures. We thought we would provide some nice ideas for you and your pets to stay healthy in the winter!

Dogs and Cats: Fact or Fiction

Jan 12, 2018 | , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

We here at Wayside Waifs see many animals come through our doors everyday. After a while, you see certain animal stereotypes begin to fade, and we see who they really are. There can be small dogs who are ready to run, or cats that don’t land on their feet. We figured we would take the time to debunk a few of those rumors going around.

Andrea and Mac: Long-Term Residents

It’s that time again for a monthly segment of our long-term residents. A long-term resident is someone who has been here at least thirty days or longer, and we try to narrow it down to some who have been here even longer. Last month we featured Vega and Goldie, and we have some good news. Both Vega and Goldie have found their forever home! We are so happy for them! Now it is time to introduce our January long-termers: Cassie and Mac!

Department Highlight: Admissions

Dec 23, 2017 | , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Happy Holidays everyone! We like to highlight departments in our shelter, as there are so many people that are working “behind the scenes” to make Wayside Waifs what it is today. Previously, we showcased our Canine Care Technicians, and this month, we would like to showcase our Admissions Department. They do such a wonderful job in overseeing the care of our animals when they first come in, and work directly with the public, local animal controls, and shelters to get as many animals in a safe environment, and well on their way to a forever home.
