They take good care of the animals and if you’re looking for a medium to large dog, they have many available

Facility seems clean and well cared for but when we entered to bring our contributions, none of the people at the desk rose to greet us or even acknowledge our presence.

Is this a none kill shelter for cats I have a kitten

Dawn Hunter | Sep 20, 2018
Jasmine Ward | Sep 20, 2019

Recently, we attempted to take a stray cat there and they told us that because they did not have space the cat would be put down. So yes, it is a kill shelter, apparently on a case by case basis

Do u have kittens

Kim Negron | Sep 19, 2021
Molly Cornelius | Sep 19, 2021

They do! I know because I just brought in a sweet stray mama with her babies who were born on my porch. They won't be old enough to be separated & adopted for a while, but if they took in the ones I found, they may have others. Or if you wait a little, maybe you can adopt one from the family we rescued.
