About this shelter

MaryAnn Wright Animal Adoption and Education Center in Dearborn, MI

The MaryAnn Wright Animal Adoption and Education Center is a cat rescue located at 16121 Reckinger Road in Dearborn, Michigan, about 8 miles east of Detroit. It operates as the adoption facility for Friends for Animals of Metro Detroit, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. The center is open to the public Wednesday through Sunday from 12:00 to 4:00 PM, and also offers services such as lost-and-found assistance, trap rentals, and donation drop-off. Friends for Animals relies heavily on community support, sponsors, and events like Pawfest and the Pat's Paws-itively Pasta Dinner to help fund care for the animals that come through its doors each year.
