SAVE A PET​

​​​​DONATE NOW!​

​VOLUNTEER/FOSTER PROGRAM

We are in DESPERATE NEED OF KITTEN/CAT FOSTERS AND TEMPORARY FOSTERS FOR OUR DOGS AND PUPPIES!! Please contact us asap if you can help with the many kittens, cats, dogs and puppies that fill the shelter. They all just need a safe place to stay for a little while until they can be adopted! We are also in desperate need of people willing to temporarily foster a dog that has found rescue but doesn't have transport yet to where it needs to go, sometimes just a night or a few days to give it a safe haven while it waits for rescue! Sometimes life or death for the cats and dogs that enter the shelter depends on whether they have a safe place to go while we line up rescue and transport. We have LOTS of adoptable cats, kittens, dogs and puppies that end up in the shelter everyday and many adoptable animals, pure breds and all shapes and sizes! Come visit us today for your next pet and save a life!
