Pet Pantry of Lancaster County

Love this place! Steve was so helpful and set me up with two wonderful kitties, Fiadh and Cillian. Everyone there is so nice and always so happy to help you find your new best friend(s) 🩷

Edited to add- the staff/volunteer’s are heaven sent. My beloved ginger girl developed cancer as my husband was in treatment for cancer. She was waisting away just as he did; so o knew she was probably past the most opportune time to euthanize her. My regular vet wanted over $400 for a private cremation and euthanasia. Our three cats would cast the same to cremate as my husband did. I’m on a fixed income with a child and can’t afford daily necessities. After emailing several places; Pet Pantry not only quoted me an amount but felt more appropriate for a small cat, but they showed such compassion in our email exchanges and then in person too. While they took her in back to administer medication, they would then bring her back around to me and allowed me to spend as much time as I wanted to (we always need more time. Just one more day) I held her while they injected her with the next two parts of their three part system. I know she did not suffer even an iota as she was euthanatized. She simply was relaxed as she could ever imagine, and I talked softly to her and had her happily purring. It felt more akin to the cremation company I used for my husband, where allowing loved ones to help and be part of the process, helps the mystery and grief surrounding it. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

My mom and I just adopted a cat yesterday from Pet Pantry, and it was one of the best experiences I have ever had. Steve and the ladies who work with him are such wonderful people - and I mean that wholeheartedly. They let us spend a while with the cats and when we chose the cat we loved, they put a pending adoption tag on him until we came to proceed with the adoption. I had car issues the first day I was supposed to be there, and Steve was so kind and understanding. We set the new date up for me to come. When I got there, they were so excited for us and Alex (the cat) to start a new journey together. They asked if I needed anything and gave me everything I would need. I definitely recommend visiting them. We couldn't have asked for a better place to adopt from. :)
