Future of the Houghton Village Property
with Respect to Our Shelter
Posted on January 15, 2025
In 2022, the City of Kirkland purchased the Houghton Village Shopping Center, where MEOW has been a tenant for 20 years, to redevelop the property.
The City is still in the phase of seeking input on how to best develop the space, and the future uses of the property. A timeline for development has not yet been communicated.
What does this mean for MEOW? We are secure in our space for the time being, though while waiting to hear more, we are being proactive about identifying all of our options. There may be a place for us in the redevelopment, or we will find a new location that allows us to continue to care for each precious life.
We are committed to continuing to serve our Eastside community and staying close to our volunteers, supporters, community partners, adopters, and local companion animals.
