Not helpful. And completely made my whole day a waste of time. If you need help with a animal, just lie. The truth clearly does no good here.

They don't care about those poor animals

VERY SLOW PROCESS 👎🏻 Probably understaffed as with most civil service offices. Easier/faster to just trap any stray animals in your neighborhood yourself and release them into the wild.

The staff is very rude and will NOT give my dog back to me after I told them I have proof it’s my dog then they told me I had stole the dog. If you find a dog I recommend to take it to another shelter

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Questions & Answers

Can I bring a dog there we cannot have him

It would be great if you could it would be great if you could find one of the dozens of local animal rescues to take him. His longevity is not guaranteed at County shelters. Lee does a great job finding rescues and getting unwanted animals adopted but they are a small shelter and stay full most of the time.

Do you need dog food?

Lee County Animal Shelter is always in need of donations. They have a list on their website of what items they are in desperate need of. Dog food is most certainly accepted.

I lost my medical canine today do u accept dry dog food & can dog food? I have put them n gal Ziploc bags labeled & dated 3 different brands & 5 cans pedigree wet can food unopened..& do u pick up donations? 1119 Frank Wicker Sanford?

Hello Donna. Sorry to hear of your loss. Don't know why I am receiving your post. I am not partbof Lee County Animal Services, I am a rescue, however I will help you if I can?

I have baby oppossums under my house I've seen 2 babies so I'm sure the mother may not be far. And I have young kids. Does animal control help with that?

You should give them a call. To be honest I'm not sure, I adopted a 5 month old puppy and she's phenomenal. ❤️

re:the kittens at the apt.complex I have already gathered them up and they are in an carrying box. I need to let them out soon they have been in the for several hours. They are calm a

Oh my goodness how old are they?? How many of them are there? So it sounds like these are not just random cats but maybe all from one litter? Do you have food for them? Why don't you check out Independent Animal Rescue in Durham, they might take them. Their website is animalrescue.net. That is the org I volunteer with.

Cats at the apartment complex that I live in are multiplying by the minute. They are in my vegetable garden like it's their litter box. Where can I bring them where they can get the care they need? None of these cats are mine.

Do you think they are feral, or pets? You should probably contact a local rescue group, who could help you trap them for rescue and adoption, or, if they're feral, might be able to set up their colony for TNR (Trap, Neuter, Release). Lee Co. Shelter is good, but this sounds like a job for a rescue group.

Got a declawed cat that showed up. Put it on line and took pictures around neiborhood but no one knows this kitty. I have a kitty but she doesn't like to share if you know what I mean. So I need her to find a new home.

Hopefully they will have room at the animal control facility.

How long do they give an animal here until they put them down?

Brittany Brown | Sep 18, 2021

One of the factors is how crowded they are. But there is a popular misunderstanding about "kill" vs. "no kill" shelters. County shelters do not get to pick and choose who they take in--they have to take all animals brought to them. So euthanasia is sometimes unavoidable. So-called "no kill" shelters have the luxury of turning animals away when they are full, or if they think the animal will not be adoptable. So "kill" vs. "no-kill" is really not a accurate indicator of the quality of the shelter.

It’s a dead fox in the back of my apartment yard. What do I need to do?
