TO OUR VALUED PICK OF THE LITTER SHOPPERS & DONORS:

  Pick of the Litter will be open for both shopping & donations on Fridays & Saturdays

during our usual hours (store 10–4, receiving 10–3:30). We are now also accepting donations on Thursdays!

Donation times and quantities may be limited - call for details.

We will continue to be closed for shopping on Thursdays for now.
We encourage you to call the store at 541-574-1861 for further updates in the coming weeks.


We also encourage you to consider volunteering at POTL if you have a few spare hours a week. The faster we can build up our 
volunteer team, the faster we can get back to offering the top-notch shopping experience our customers have enjoyed for the past 15 years.

Please download a volunteer application from this page and bring it to the store at your earliest opportunity.
Thank you for your understanding and support.


With the money raised at our Pick of the Litter thrift store, FOLCAS pays for the spay & neuter of the animals at the Lincoln County Animal Shelter and also provides financial assistance for local pet guardians who need help affording medical care, dental care, & spay/neuter for their pets.

We're grateful to have been able to maintain our full level of program services throughout the pandemic period even though we had to close the store for 5 1/2 months in 2020 and again in September 2021.

In addition to our rainy day reserves, we have been able to keep up with our commitments thanks to

• Donations from many individuals in Lincoln County and beyond
• Donations from local businesses
• Annual & supplemental grants from the So Hum Foundation of Portland
• Social service agency grants from Lincoln County and the City of Newport
• Charitable fundraising programs run by Fred Meyer, the Oregon Beverage 
  Recycling Cooperative, Planet Green Recycle, Goodsearch.com, 
  and WoofTrax (see the DONATE page for details)
• Merchandise sales through our volunteer-managed eBay store 

Our county’s animals and the people who care for them thank and salute you all!

Many of the photos on this website were taken by our Pick of the Litter staff and volunteers.

THANK YOU!
