Municipal animal shelter for the City of Great Falls. It houses domestic animals, reunites lost pets with owners, adopts out animals and works with rescue partners, and does not euthanize for space or length of stay. Animal control is handled by the Great Falls Police Department. The shelter no longer takes in feral cats in traps and offers community cat guidance instead.
