The Humane Society for Tacoma and Pierce County is now caring for an additional 40 animals in need of emergency care. These animals were all brought in within the span of 24 hours.
On Aug. 17, a 5-year-old pitbull was brought into the shelter as a stray by Tacoma Animal Control with an abnormally large tumor on her shoulder, which caused her pain and limited her mobility. She is receiving pain medication to make her more comfortable, and veterinarians are assessing the next steps to take with her tumor.Shortly after the pitbull was brought in, 21 other animals were brought into the shelter from an overcrowded location.
Less than 24 hours later, 18 cats were brought to the shelter by Pierce County Animal Control after being removed from a one-bedroom apartment. The cats had been living in inches of feces and urine, with little interaction from people, according to the Humane Society for Tacoma and Pierce County.
