Everett Animal Shelter

I first came to this shelter to look for another cat but never found one, but everyone was pretty nice and let me hold any cat I wanted. They also let my class at sno-isle technical school use some of their animals to study with. Im glad that they were willing to support our education about dogs and cats!

Pros: Clean, nice staff

Cons: The dogs are always barking and wish they had more volunteer opportunities

EAS is the ONLY public animal shelter in all of Snohomish County. They take in strays form virtually everywhere in this county, one of the most populous in the state. Because they cannot turn surrendered animals away when they run out of room, they do have to euthanize regularly... but they do the absolute best that they can, and are doing great work.

Pros: great selection of dogs and cats; cleanest shelter around

Cons: short staffed; relatively high euthanasia rate
