For the entire month of June we are lowing adoption fees to just $20.19! We have so many adoptable pets here on-site ready to go hiking, catch frisbees on the beach, jump in the river with you or just spend the day relaxing!
It's that time of the year again when our shelters are full! Full kennels and sweltering heat makes a shelter no place for a homeless animal. We need clear and clean kennels so we can save as many animals as we can from the summer weather.
This offer applies to ALL SPAYED AND NEUTERED animals on-site at our shelter. When visiting our website, animals located in foster care do not apply for this special. All other animals do! A minimum of three months of flea and heart worm prevention must also be purchased (but hey, you were going to buy that anyway)! We will also be offering bundles so you will have everything for your new pet.
So come on y'all! 30 days is shorter than you think! Come find your new best friend!
*Offer does not apply to the three day trial period. All potential adopters must still submit an application through our adoption team that must be approved to adopt. See our website for requirements here:

Blue Crab and Creole Tomato Celebration
|
23
801 Chartres St, New Orleans, Louisiana 70116
Each year, the arrival of summer in New Orleans is marked with the first Creole tomatoes served on local tables. No other tomato stirs as much excitement among New Orleans' locals and chefs as does the Creole tomato. "Creoles" are only grown in a unique area along the Mississippi River in Plaquemines and St. Bernard parishes, just south of New Orleans. This special area offers the needed alluvial soil to produce the distinguishable taste. One of the great culinary rewards of living in, or visiting, southern Louisiana is the pleasure of enjoying Creole tomatoes at the start of each summer. This June, Chef Erik has paired Creole tomatoes with Louisiana Blue Crab and created a special menu celebrating these delicacies.
