All God’s Creatures Animal Shelter in Mount Pleasant is celebrating a strong start to 2026 while continuing efforts to support animals across Henry County and Southeast Iowa.
In the shelter’s May newsletter, organizers thanked the community for its continued support through trivia nights, rummage sales, donations, volunteer work, and other fundraising events held during the first quarter of the year.
Shelter leaders shared that the support helps provide food, medical care, shelter, and second chances for dogs and cats waiting for permanent homes.
The newsletter also spotlighted several long-term resident cats currently looking for adoption, including Lyra, Frankie, Jo, and Noir.




Another major focus highlighted in the newsletter is the shelter’s ongoing effort to support a Trap-Neuter-Return program, commonly known as TNR. The program is designed to humanely manage outdoor cat populations by trapping cats, having them spayed or neutered and vaccinated, and then safely returning them to their outdoor homes.
According to the shelter, expanding TNR efforts could help reduce unwanted litters, lower overpopulation, and improve the health and safety of community cat populations throughout the area.
All God’s Creatures is also preparing for its upcoming “Creature’s Classic” golf tournament fundraiser scheduled for June 6th. The event will help raise money for shelter operations and continued animal care programs.
The shelter emphasized that community involvement remains essential to continuing its mission and encouraged residents to volunteer, donate, attend events, or consider adopting a pet.
