For over 50 years, Mt. Pleasant Animal Shelter has provided shelter for abandoned, homeless, and neglected animals. We don’t know where this time has gone, but we do know where the tens of thousands of homeless animals passing through our doors went…into loving homes throughout our area! Thanks to the kindness of animal lovers like you, Mt. Pleasant is officially “over the hill and picking up speed” in our second half-century.

We’ve always been a unique shelter – always private, always limited admission. This means that when an animal comes to Mt. Pleasant Animal Shelter, we do everything we can to find the right family for that homeless cat or dog. Sometimes they reside with us for days, sometimes weeks or longer. But what makes our shelter unique is that we give each animal a chance to find its home - no matter the cost, no matter the time.

As we enter our next phase, we want to give our supporters a chance to be a permanent part of our shelter. Mt. Pleasant is pleased to bring you the opportunity to purchase an engraved brick that will become a lasting piece of the shelter’s property. Our 1st installation of bricks occurred earlier this year. These engraved bricks will help pave the way for future animals in need and enable us to continue our mission to build a community of people and organizations working together to save today’s and prevent tomorrow’s abused, neglected, and homeless animals.
We hope you will become part of this legacy today. Use this page for more information about how you can be a Pavers for Paws legacy contributor. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at ed@njshelter.org or by phone at 973-386-0590.

We look forward to seeing you "permanently!
