Woof! Meow! One thing before you go…

Do you need to find a loving home for your pet?

Shelters are often inundated with pet surrenders, and do not want to provide a simple outlet that takes away the obligation of responsible pet ownership. Therefore, they would prefer that people try hard to find a solution before resorting to surrendering their pet to a shelter. If you must find a new home for a pet, please try posting to our adoption portal before placing the burden on the shelter. Direct adoptions work well and allow everyone to share in the accountability of their community!

Feral Cat TNR Program ★★★★★ 5 average

  • ★★★★★posted by herzog_h, on 2013-07-10 21:41:19

    I think this is a great program as it will eliminate future unwanted kittens and yet stop the senseless killing of these defenseless animals.

High-Volume, Low-Cost Spay/Neuter ★★★★★ 5 average

  • ★★★★★posted by herzog_h, on 2013-07-10 21:42:11

    I believe this will help eliminate unwanted animals and cats seem to be the least helped animals.

Rescue Groups ★★★★★ 5 average

  • ★★★★★posted by herzog_h, on 2013-07-10 21:43:07

    If someone is willing to rescue the animal and give it a life why would anyone want to take that life from the animal?

Foster Care ★★★★★ 5 average

  • ★★★★★posted by herzog_h, on 2013-07-10 21:43:42

    I hope there will be more people willing to help save these animals.

Comprehensive Adoption Programs ★★★★★ 5 average

  • ★★★★★posted by herzog_h, on 2013-07-10 21:45:02

    That would be great. Agencys need to understand that many older people would love to adopt an animal but with the high cost they will not.

Pet Retention ★★★★★ 5 average

  • ★★★★★posted by herzog_h, on 2013-07-10 21:46:07

    True. One community in Lake county traps and turns over feral cats to be destroyed.

Medical and Behavior Programs ★★★★★ 5 average

  • ★★★★★posted by herzog_h, on 2013-07-10 21:49:44

    Yes and starting volunteer programs might help. Many people would volunteer to help to stop the useless killing.

Public Relations/Community Involvement ★★★★★ 5 average

  • ★★★★★posted by herzog_h, on 2013-07-10 21:50:42

    Yes and many pet supply stores have become involved in helping bring adoptions to the public eye.

Volunteers ★★★★★ 5 average

  • ★★★★★posted by herzog_h, on 2013-07-10 21:52:03

    But the public needs to be made more aware of the critical need for the volunteers by whatever means possible. People need to know the extent to which animals are being destroyed daily.

Proactive Redemptions ★★★★★ 5 average

  • ★★★★★posted by herzog_h, on 2013-07-10 21:53:34

    Shelters should be required to make every effort to locate the owner. Many shelters do not give the owner enough time to find the lost animal. Shelters seem to be to ready to kill rather than save.

A Compassionate Director ★★★★★ 5 average

  • ★★★★★posted by herzog_h, on 2013-07-10 21:55:44

    Yes but the agency should be required to make sure that the director is dedicated and caring before they are hired. Many agencies hire anyone because it is hard to find someone who really cares about the animals and not just the pay check.

Comments

  • I can only hope that you will continue with the No Kill policy. There is a community, Pennbrooke Fairways, that has been trapping feral cats and having animal control destroy them. I thought they had to have some sort of contract with an agency such as LHS to do this. I am quite concerned that these animals are being targeted for trapping and especially in one certain location I wish someone would look into this.

  • My daughter has relocated to Florida and can't keep her cat and as she was leaving my son was driving a bus and a customer left a kitten in the back of the bus. He couldn't keep it so he ask my daughter if she could call her friend to see if she could find it a home. Well needless to say I have both cats and I am allergic to them. Both are potty trained but they are locked up in a room all day. I go in there to feed them and clean out there box. I am leaving for a long trip and I can no longer keep them here. Please help me.

  • Molly is a four-year-old lovely female. She was adopted as a kitten from a shelter and was spayed and given great loving care which matches her personality. She loves to play and her cat scratcher. She does not scratch the furniture. She loves to be petted and her legs rubbed as well. She really is a nice cat but can no longer live with my parents as my mom went into memory care and now my dad into assisted living and because of his health issues cannot take care of her any longer. She was all caught up on her shots and everything until my dad took over. If need be I will take her to the vet if that will help get her adopted. I wish I could keep her but my home already has three rescue pets. She has never been around dogs or young children. I really love this cat and am heartbroken I cannot keep her. I need to do something very soon as I just found out about this a few days ago and they are moving next week. I would love a foster home at the very least until I can find a forever home!!!

  • I have a beautiful, 11 week old calico kitten I must rehome. She is spayed, microchipped, current on all shots, healthy, affectionate and very active. I will provide all her stuff, including litter and box, bowls and food, toys, scratching posts and carrier. Please email me at [email protected].
