There’s good news if you are looking to get at pet from the Capital Humane Society’s Pieloch Adoption Center. “Beginning Tuesday folks will be able to walk into the facility anytime the building is open without the need of appointments or without having to wait in the virtual que system that we’ve been using the past few months,” says interim executive director Matt Madcharo.
Madcharo says they went to the online system back in November due to COVID-19 concerns. “At the end of the day the community donated to build that facility and it’s a welcoming environment where people can come and look for new pets so we wanted to get the building back open.”
Madcharo says they expect to see more pets adopted as people come back for in person visits. He says with the DHM still in place potential pet owners will have to wear masks inside the facility. He says the adoption center hours will shift slightly. Tuesday-Friday the building will be open 11:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. and on Saturday and Sunday the hours will be noon-5 p.m.
The facility will be closed on Monday
