This particular shelter is run by extraordinary staff and volunteers. These pets without homes are loved and cherished from day one upon entering the doors. The staff all love from deep within their hearts. They nurture and cuddle, help heal and comfort all pets waiting for a forever home.

We've adopted 2 dogs from Safe Animal Shelter. The kennel is spotless and the staff is very helpful. They are a no kill shelter. There is a page posted on every kennel with the dogs name and any history they have on him. They had us go into a play yard area to get acquainted with the dog we chose. He was a perfect match for us.

They helped me bring home two sweet girls that keep me on my toes. They answered all my questions and the adoption process was fairly quick and easy. Love having Rosalie and Giovanna as part of our family.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

I had a community service assignment for school to do and I was wondering if I would be able to come in and meet some of the animals that are having trouble finding a home and do some photos to share online to hopefully find them a home.

MoeMara | Aug 31, 2018
Makayla Caton | Aug 31, 2018

Yes, you can definitely do that. I originally became an official volunteer at the Safe Animal Shelter by completing a school project there. All you need to do is visit them when they are open, and start helping the animals! Depending on your age, you can either volunteer with the cats or dogs. You can also collect donations from your local community to contribute as well. That's great that you're interested in helping the animals. Good luck!

Annrose Williams | Aug 30, 2021
Rose Thorn | Aug 30, 2021

You need to bring him into the shelter and surrender him to them if you can no longer care for him. He will be cared for and then find a new home.

How long after a mother cat had babies can she get fixed.

Margie Lee | Aug 30, 2021

Tiffany Holiday | Aug 30, 2021

Also they will want you to have your dog meet the new dog your adopting if that is the case. So do bring your pet if you plan on adopting one the same day.

Carolene Drake | Aug 30, 2021
RiB | Aug 30, 2021

Good question. I'm actually in the same boat with a commercial property that I manage in Orange Park. It is swarming with stray cats! We've taken a few in, and have brought them to the humane society for free spay/neutering. Since Covid tho, they're not doing the free spay anymore, but offer it at a discount for only $50. 🤷🏼‍♀

Am looking to adopt a kitten, any recommendations?

Jacquelyn Bermudez | Aug 30, 2020
Chris Tian | Aug 30, 2020

Absolutely! Call the shelter and ask. At certain times of the year the shelter gets way too many kittens than they can handle because I guess the cats like mating more at certain times of the year. Also if your not quite sure if your financially able or if you just want to see if a cat is right for you the shelter has a fostering program and they give you free food and litter as much as you need. Also with fostering their basic vaccines are free I think.

You'll have to ask them, they take whatever comes in, they've had them in the past, but exact population changes almost everyday.

Do you spay and neuter the puppies?

Lazar Meme | Aug 30, 2020
Friday Wolf | Aug 30, 2020

Yes they do! Once they're appropriate weights/ages, they're given all vaccines and spayed/neutered and then put up for adoption!

Do you guys have Pitbull pups?

Shy Cecile | Aug 31, 2019
Friday Wolf | Aug 31, 2019

They get new puppies in almost daily and if they're ready for adoption, they almost always get adopted the same day. The most common breeds in shelters typically tend to be pitbulls and similar bully breeds, so check back with them often when they open some mornings and you're bound to find the right furbaby for you.

How much does it cost to adopt

Jo Lynn Bramlett | Aug 31, 2019
Safe Animal Shelter | Aug 31, 2019

Prices vary on dogs Depending on how long they are there. They run $50 and up. Cats are $25 and kittens are currently $50. Puppies are $150

Under 16 they must be accompanied and supervised. They can play with cats, do laundry, help their parent with enrichment of the dogs, help feed and water animals.

Can you bring a cat to drop off. She's fixed all ready. I can't find her a home.

Aaron Snodgrass | Aug 31, 2019
Jake Steel | Aug 31, 2019

Every single shelter and rescue will Eu for medical or other reasons in the best interest of the animal. No they do not put down animals for space as allot of animal controls do.

Do you have any Pit puppies looking for a foster home? I wanted to foster first only because I have cats.

Melissa Kestner | Aug 31, 2019
Friday Wolf | Aug 31, 2019

They always have animals available for fostering, it just depends on the day and season whether they have a good number of puppies, kittens, etc. Itsalways the easiest route to go up there and ask/look around at their fostering options. Any animals available for adoption are available for fostering, but that may not be the other way around, as some animals that need a foster are sick or underage or what have you and would need special care during their foster.

It's animal control as bothering the police when they'll call animal control anyways is pointless. Safe doesn't take strays as is code that they have to go through the city shelter for a stray hold.
