Death Row
All of these animals desperately need your help. We work hard everyday with 501 c3 non profit rescues to help these animals find safety and forever homes. Apply today to become a rescue partner!
Foster
Share your home, time and affection with a shelter animal while it awaits rescue. Becoming a foster will bring much needed respite to an animal facing life in a kennel for days, weeks and sometimes months at a time.
Donate
Because you give, they have HOPE! Your donations help us to continue our mission to save animals!
Volunteer
Come spend time with the animals. Take them for a walk, give them some TLC and help out with their daily care. Every little bit makes a difference.

Here are all the cats at the shelter right now that are available and waiting for rescue!
Sally and Posey are medical cases. Sally has a tumor in her ear and Posey was surrendered after having a seizure. We are unsure if it will be a lifetime issue or if it was a one time thing.
Everyone (except C Kittens & Sally) have been tested and came back FIV/FELV negative. They will be tested tomorrow.
Please share and help us get rescue commitment for all of them this week!
Over 200 shares and still not one of these dogs has rescue commitment yet! Please keep sharing so we can get them out of the shelter!These 24 dogs have been waiting weeks to months now to leave the shelter.
The dogs runs are almost full and we really need to get them out. Please share and help us find rescue for them this week.
Everyone is spayed/neutered already (except Emily, Elliott & Bella-Anna).
