r A nimal Animal Sheltes Shelters An animal shelter is a facility that houses homeless, lost, or abandoned animals. The animal is kept at the shelter until it is either reclaimed by an owner, adopted to a new owner, or placed with another organization. In the past, animal shelters were more commonly referred to as "dog pounds“, a term which had its origins in the pounds of agricultural communities, where stray cattle would be penned up until claimed by their owners. Some animal shelters humanely euthanize animals that are not adopted within a set period of time; others have a policy of only putting down animals that are in distress due to age or illness. X
