About Our Shelter
We are an all volunteer, non-profit, no-kill shelter and rely mainly on donations to stay in business. Since the Town of East Greenwich does not have a pound, a small number of us volunteer our time to take in the stray and abandoned animals. We board them at Greenwich Bay Animal Hospital where they receive an examination, vaccines, spaying/neutering, and medical care if needed.
Come Meet our Pets
Adoption hours are on Sunday between 10:30-1:00 at Greenwich Bay Animal Hospital, 5732 Post Rd in East Greenwich, RI. Our animals are available for showing during this time or by appointment only. Hospital staff are forbidden to show animals or release information. Please contact Nancy at egapl@care2.com (732-8223) for cats or Tammy at onlygirlx33@aol.com (241-4541) for dogs.
Our Adoption Process
Fees for adopting differ between cats and dogs. Specifics can be found on our website (www.egapl.org).

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder? When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
