This is really, really good news

Advocates worked so hard to make this happen

[Arin Greenwood @arin_twit]

@RichardMorrison Oh amazing! I used to spend a lot of time at that library!

[Arin Greenwood @arin_twit]

@janecoaston I'm so sorry for your devastating loss. Your mother sounds like a wonderful person, and a force of nature. You wrote about her beautifully. May her memory be a blessing.

This man did nothing wrong and he's been disappeared

When there's no due process no one is safe

the world is on fire and dogs remain good

things are bad but this shelter put its pets in curly blond wigs and called them all doodles

“Many of these incredible dogs have truly gone from rescued shelter dog to rescuer, now on the front lines helping with rescue and recovery efforts in the wake of these devastating fires”

[KTLA @KTLA]

Former shelter dogs that were deemed too "high energy" are now on the front lines in Los Angeles, searching through the rubble of the #PalisadesFire and #EatonFire. https://t.co/m8tvvE5daJ

This beautiful story is about my niece Noa - who is, as my brother says in here, a real life miracle

#Pasadena Humane: “We ask that anyone who can safely foster a dog or a cat for at least one week to please come to the Pasadena Humane Foster Office or email [email protected]. Our greatest need is for large dog fosters.” #EatonFire #LosAngelesFire #LosAngeles #Altadena https://t.co/VCuVrEiAQT

[Art Candee 🍿🥤 @ArtCandee]

The head of Pasadena Humane says that they're taking names of people who are willing to foster animals that are coming into the shelter that are displaced from the Eaton Fire.

She says that the main thing they need is money.

Please donate if you're looking for a way to help.

[San Diego Humane Society @sdhumane]

Here are some of the precious dogs we just brought in from @PasadenaHumane tonight. We sent two teams up to help free up space as they deal with the devastating #EatonFire. If you are able to help, please consider fostering a dog temporarily. Sign up at https://t.co/WKOm2AKCCL.

[Los Angeles County @CountyofLA]

Animal shelters have been established for residents impacted by the #PalisadesFire and #EatonFire. Please visit https://t.co/p46PbDz31o for more information.

cat adoption photos are always so funny because cats just can't help but look disgruntled no matter what

but i still love them, every one of them (the cats and the adoption photos)

[Crash's Landing @CrashsLanding]

We are overjoyed to share that Flattop Jones and Gordon Whitefoot have been adopted together! These two lovable boys are now part of a wonderful family that includes their new sibling, Paddy-O, who was adopted back in October. Happy tails, boys! 🎉

[Arin Greenwood @arin_twit]

this is a delight, an absolute delight

[National Zoo @NationalZoo]

❄️🐼 Tumbling in a winter wonderland! This morning, about 5 inches of snow blanketed the Washington, D.C., area, including giant panda Bao Li and Qing Bao's outdoor habitats. Flakes stuck to their fur as the bears frolicked and somersaulted. It was 🐾paws-itively the panda *snowment* of our dreams!
. . .
The bear pair will make their public debut at the @Smithsonian on Friday, Jan. 24. Follow #DCPandas for updates. ✏️LEARN MORE: https://t.co/rh9FL1ALFu.

[Arin Greenwood @arin_twit]

A lot of shelters are looking for temporary fosters to take in pets for snowstorm sleepovers - reach out to your local shelter if you can keep a pet warm and cozy for a couple of days.

This is BARCS in Baltimore

[Arin Greenwood @arin_twit]

this florida snowman is made of sandbags

will make for an interesting twist in next year’s hot frosty sequel!

[Arin Greenwood @arin_twit]

@AnthonyClose You just want to shout "break up already!"

[Arin Greenwood @arin_twit]

@LpcProf Truly, the ones who get this break are the lucky ones.

Consider the alternative - no break from a stressful shelter.

[Arin Greenwood @arin_twit]

good morning! a lot of animal shelters are hosting holiday fostering programs.

you can take a dog home for the long weekend and give them a break from the shelter plus some good thanksgiving cheer.

reach out to your local shelter and make a dog’s dreams come true!

[Arin Greenwood @arin_twit]

@LpcProf But also yes, a lot of times they do get adopted by their families. People fostering for the first time, especially, are likely to adopt the pet they're fostering!

[Arin Greenwood @arin_twit]

@LpcProf Short term fostering is a tremendous good! Dogs who go into homes even just for a weekend have lower stress levels and get adopted more quickly.
