Erie Animal Network




For the animals-By the people!


Erie Animal Network was founded in 2011 as a place for concerned citizens in Erie County Pennsylvania to come together to help local animals in need. Since its inception, EAN, lead by a dedicated core group of volunteers has helped thousands of lost & found pets get back home using grassroots networking on a local level, or have worked together to find resources for stray and abandoned pets.​
​As we grew, we added valuable services for our community such as a Community Pet Food Bank to help reduce owner surrender and animal abandonment, we offer Domestic Violence fostering to assist victims leaving situations of domestic abuse by providing a list of volunteer fosters for their pets, free community education classes on various pet and animal related subjects, and feral cat caretaker support with a mission to help stabilize the stray cat overpopulation in Erie County through Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return, assistance with shelters and food to support these often forgotten cats in our community, as well as several additional outreach programs.

Unfortunately, we are closed to intakes due to a lack of space and resources to intake any more animals at this time. You can try to reach other shelters to seek intake, however, they are likely in the same situation right now. EAN's priority mission is to assist the homeless street animals of Erie County who are in need. EAN does not accept any owner surrenders. We intake street rescues as our resources and space allow. We do have some programs which may help that we would like to share:
We have a pet food bank to assist with pet food needs. If you would like to sign up for our pet food bank, contact us HERE. We offer free straw bedding for feral or outdoor community cats to stay warm. If you find a stray who is sick or injured, please contact the police non-emergency number for assistance. If you have a hurt, sick or injured feline, EAN will always do our best to help case by case as our resources allow. We hope this information helps, and if you need specifics on any of the above programs, please let us know.

EAN also showcases our adoptable kitties at PSP in Harborcreek!

EAN is thrilled to work with our friends at Pet Supplies Plus to showcase two of our EAN adoptable cats on a weekly basis. The staff takes great care of our kitties who are staying the week, and the kitties are able to meet lots of wonderful pet lovers who may be interested in adoption! Thank you to Pet Supplies Plus for hosting EAN Felines!
